Gone are the days of hoping to find Northwestern mentioned in the “Others receiving votes” section at the bottom of every weekly collegiate football pool, then counting the number of schools that come before them before declaring “hey, we’re ranked 31st… we’re actually getting some respect.” Luckily for the Wildcat fans out there, SI.com keeps weekly tabs on all those teams that don’t make it into the newspaper. Numbers 26 through 119, every single one of them. I think you can see for yourself: we are in the company of some truly formidable powerhouses.
