......well more than half of the country expects Northwestern to beat UT. That's fine with me.

I'd rather the team go in feeling the lack of respect.  :powert:

Aren't we 9 1/2 point favorites?

Yep. But for some reason the nation's football fans aren't paying any attention to the bookies.  :biggrin:

The average fan pays attention to nothing other than rankings. They see Northwestern ranked No. 12 and UT unranked and think that tells the entire story.

The last I saw NW was 13 and we were 23. Don't recall what poll that was but disrespect favors the VOLS.

The playoff poll...which is the only poll that matters anymore.
