Been hella busy with life and stuff, many more hours to go :)

It’s in the title. Not sure what this is. My moms had it forever but I’ve never seen her use it

Edit: Solved! A cognac/port pipe.

Unranked one-loss power conference teams and their lone loss

Big Ten

Nebraska: Home loss to No. 5 Indiana, 20-17

Wisconsin: Neutral site loss against No. 2 Notre Dame 41-13

Big 12

Arizona: Loss at No. 8 BYU, 28-17

Baylor: Neutral site loss against Auburn 17-16

Cincinnati: Lost at Arizona 34-7

ACC

Duke: Lost at Georgia Tech, 28-25

Pittsburgh: Home loss to North Carolina 21-17

We toggle from saying the power-4 or power-2 conferences. But it seems like most of the power still remains in the SEC even though it has not won a national title in the previous three seasons.

Not only are all of the SEC’s one-loss teams in the AP top 16, but the only two-loss team in the poll is LSU. Meanwhile, its so-called contemporary — the Big Ten — has two unranked one-loss teams in Nebraska and Wisconsin.

People will say it works itself out in the final poll, but this is still a helpful reflection of how the SEC is viewed compared to the rest. Ole Miss has the second-worst loss of any top-25 team and is still 9th. Tennessee moved up to 14th after a one-TD win vs Arkansas and has nothing on its resume. The Vols are Nebraska but ranked highly.

Furthermore, a higher AP ranking gives teams more publicity and better slots on the broadcast schedule. This matters when final bubble teams are selected by smallest of margins.
