I'm perfectly fine with USC at #1.

They won't be there January 8th and that's all that matters.

SEC well represented in top 10 but scarce after that.

Five of the top nine is pretty strong.

UGA is too high. Undecided about USCe and the Pigs. QB questions for one, and psyche for the other.

Ohio State has some serious questions on offense.


I think OSU has questions at WR and that's it. Quality TE, great talent at RB, and a QB who can run and throw it well.

But WR....yea they just need 2 or 3 to have like 40ish catches

God damn ESPN has a bunch of suckers of geriatric cock. Why do they love to keep putting the Cocks ahead of us? This top 25 was put together under the influence of gay fantasies and meth.

Miller has given reasons for optimism, but I think you can understand why I still consider him a question mark.

Stoneburner is great, but the WR's are absolutely a question at this point. The line replaces some guys, and they weren't great last year, either.

Ohio State is returning no proven running backs, and I'm not sure I've ever seen a running backs coach with a worse resume than Stan Drayton. There is some talent returning, but I'm not sure it's as much as most Buckeye fans seem to think.

I should say that I do think Meyer should be able to win big at Ohio State as long as he's healthy. That said, there are certainly questions concerning the offense. They may be better than expected, but I still disagree with Killian about the Buckeyes being the best team in the Big 10 this year unless the conference is terrible.

Are we talking about Foster here? I think Urban and Co. didn't like his attitude that much when he came to visit...and have considerable cooled on him. Not saying it won't happen but I don't think the chances are that good.

From what I heard he was closing around the entire academic portion of his visit which pissed off the staff. From what I've read, he's out.

Really what do you expect from us, to say we suck and wish we were in the Big 12. Sorry that shite aint flying brotha, happy as hell to be here in the SEC and think we can compete. Also ranking especially preseason are bullshite. Texas and Florida are there on name recognition only.

Florida being in the top 25 is a joke right now. Top 5 D, but way too many questions on O that haven't been answered.

Won't comment on any other teams.

What amazes me is that USC was supposed to be coming off of sanctions but they're debuting at #1....hilarious. I guess it's time for the media to start verbally blowing USC again....

I think it's their schedule. They have Ducks at home. If they can actually win all the ones they are 'supposed' to....

Well, I guess that makes sense....From what I've been hearing though, USC may have a good team of starters but due to the sanctions, have little depth. Unlike our Tigers of course....

Most in the top 10 are rated too high. Big Game Bobbie will shite the bed at least a couple of times. Florida State is kind of a mystery, they certainly took a step back last season. Don't know what to expect from USCe, but I don't see them beating LSU or Arkansas. UGA is a toss up.

He's done well so far and seems to have really taken the reins as the leader of this team. I think he'll stay out of trouble and lead this team to where they should be already......The Promise Land...

Yes, I've really been impressed with his team leader qualities exhibited so far. Reading up on his troubles in Georgia (apparently grabass in a bar) and subsequent interviews he seems to have the 'don't screw this up' view, which is probably more powerful than the 'I'm heartily contrite' speak. I think he will be fine.

Agreed. He's had the chance to grow up and I believe he knows what kind of opportunity he has with this team...these types of opportunities don't just come around everyday.

BTW, here's a good article on Zach in Georgia Zach
quote:

"Southern Judicial Circuit District Attorney J. David Miller said the sexual battery charges “were the result of Mettenberger grabbing the breasts and touching the buttocks” of a 20-year-old female Valdosta State University student in the bar."
