Not to start, but 4-0 and we will be in. After the 5th game osu, We will be top 15 (when we win).

Do we open 2019 in the top 25?

No
I knew there had to be proof to my belief that ND is constantly the most overrated team!
If Nebraska finishes 4-8 or 5-7, 2015 to 2016 becomes a decent analog. The team was first ranked in 2016 after beating then #22 Oregon in week 3, entering the AP poll at #20. NU won't play a ranked team in 2019 until Ohio St. in week 5. I"m with ColombianHusker - It'll take 4-0 to crack the poll.

Only in your mind.................so, no harm. 
I doubt it. We need a signature win in this new era. Maybe it happens next year, but the kind of win that catches everyone's attention. Until that happens, I don't care what the record is... you need wins against top 25 teams to get some notice.

When was the last time a 5 win team cracked the top 25 in the 1st poll of the next year.
Get back to us on that. (Oh, and BTW, Notre Dame, Texas and Florida don't count).

as long as we are top 10 by November, who cares
I don't think it's impossible, depending on how we finish out the season. I think people recognize that this is a team that is quickly improving. Closing out with 3 straight wins could be enough to make believers out of some.
Frost has credibility, and Nebraska had pedigree. I doubt it will happen preseason, but I don't think it will take long.

It’s rare, but it can happen. Tennessee was 5-6 in 2005 and ranked #23 in both 2006 pre-season polls. Pitt was 5-7 in 2007 and ranked #25 in the 2008 AP pre-season poll.
