The University of Nebraska Athletic Department capped a strong athletic year by placing 22nd in the final 2023-24 Division I Learfield Directors’ Cup standings released Wednesday morning.

Nebraska finished the year with 841.00 total points, marking its best finish since a 17th-place showing in 2010 and second straight top-30 finish. It is only the third time in the last 20 years that the Huskers’ eclipsed the 800-point mark in the all-sports competition.

3rd in the Big Ten

Florida doesn't belong anywhere near 25.  We haven't had a good defense since like 2019 and that was a 1-year blip.  
We used to be a top-15 defense EVERY year and then fell off a cliff.  It's stupid.

This defense list especially makes me think it's just for clicks and eyeballs.  It will be updated week-to-week, so the teams like USC, CU, and UNC will drop off quickly.

But to have CU on here preseason, it's solely just a car on the hype train.

From Montana to Maine: The 42 Hard to Impossible Hikes in America, Ranked (worldtravelling.com)

Kind of useful, not for me perhaps, but interesting, just to see which are listed, if not ranked exactly.

1. Sierra High Route, Sierra Nevada, California

Escape the beaten path of the John Muir Trail and embrace the rugged allure of the Sierra High Route. This 210-mile journey is not just a hike; it’s an alpine odyssey through some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the country. Picture yourself navigating over 33 daunting granite passes, each offering a new challenge and a stunning vista. The Sierra High Route tests physical endurance and navigation skills, often without a trail to guide you. The trail is rated as Class 5.

The Angel's Landing hike is one I would like to have attempted, a few years back.
