So IF they lose, how far do they drop? The other 1 loss teams would be Oklahoma, West Virginia, Ohio State and Arizona State. With strength of schedule would you rank KU above any of these teams? I think that IF KU loses, they definately drop out if the top 10, and possibly drop as many as 10 spots on the ranking. Is that considered "exposed"? To me, yes but I guess that depends on your definition. The exposure won't only be because of the drop in the rankings but with no more games to play if they did drop that much it will really affect the quality of bowl game they would get.

I guess I think exposed when I think teams are ranked a good deal higher than they should be. KU has played weaker teams and if they get
stomped by MU that might count as exposed. Still, part of KU's ranking is the fact other teams posted losses and KU hasn't. They also have looked pretty good in their games, they do a wonderful job in the 2nd half and play smart, penalty free ball. As a comparison I wouldn't say Ohio got exposed last week, they did get beat but their opponent played quality ball and it was down to the wire. Disappointing? Yes (if you're an Ohio fan anyway). Exposure? Nah, not really.
