Nope. One ranking was given after nearly an entire season of results. The other wasn't. Do I need to tell you which is which?
Neither is relevant when comparing resumes at the end of the season.

They were #24, weren't they?
They were #18 when we played them and got up to #16 before losing their QB and losing to Ole Miss.

Gumps were beating their chests about that ranked win. Hell, y'all were even throwing Fresno State around
It’s still a ranked win. Fresno St. might end up being one as well. I don’t recall anyone using MSU’s ranking at the time we played them as a resume booster. For this conversation, they were and still are a Top 25 win. And that alone makes it a better win than Wisconsin’s win over Michigan.

Both are relevant. One is more relevant, though.

Word.

Of course not. Y'all hadn't lost to Auburn and missed out on the chance at a championship at that point. As soon as that happened, MSU became one of the greatest wins in the history of college football.

Not really. Tomorrow's game will have a big say in this. A win by Michigan makes it a better win than Mississippi State. Even with a loss, Michigan is still a better team than Mississippi State.
