Division "champions" flag?
Technically, that was ucla. The team we curbstomped
50-0. So we're taking "their" flag along with
any dignity they might have had.

I could be proven wrong, but I would rather be proven wrong before claiming either of those teams will be top 25 good.
So, you feel there are 25 teams that are better than Auburn head to head?

After returning as many starters as we did while winning our bowl game and finishing 8-5, it did. DWI. Florida being on that list over Auburn is hilarious.

The pre-season rankings by ESPN will change by the time the season starts.

And I think they really will lose some production offensively.
You do realize AU was in the 100's last year in offense, right?

Nah, you now he didn't.
He also won't admit that we will have better RB, WR, TE, and OLINE play this year. One could argue our rushing attack would be better due to us having an all-american fullback now. We don't have anyone as good as Dyer, but we do have a deeper backfield now.

I am in agreement with the Top 10 as of today. SEC fans have no worries, we will remove that #1 ranking from USC.

I think losing Gus is going to hurt production. Not just because I think highly or Gus as an OC but because implementing an entirely new system takes time. Aren't y'all going to be running more pro-sets? Changes involving blocking schemes and losing Dyer is going to hurt. McCalebb is an outside guy. Temple ran the ball effectively for Loeffler and I'm not sold Auburn has the ability to do that this year and I'm not sold on any of the quarterbacks. I think there is some decent depth at receiver though.
Again, last season could have gone either way in a couple of those games. And in others, you were blown out.
I look at the schedule this year, which I admit I don't like ranking on, and I think AU has a chance to win 8 or win 6.
Toss-ups:
Clemson
LSU
Alabama
Arkansas
Georgia
Vandy
I don't think 6-6 is out of the question based on the changes. I think Van Gorder was a great hire, but it will still take some time.

Keep that Banner for next season. Maybe you guys will earn it this time! You can have the PAC 12 south title while the Ducks continue to rule the Entire PAC 12.

Gratuity ranking. They just had 6 defensive starters drafted, plus their entire offense (Richardson).

Top 5 IMHO =
1 LSU
2 USC
3 OU
4 Georgia
5 Oregon (I guess)

I think there's 25 that could beat AU and UF right now, yes. There's too many question marks on both AU's and UF's O's right now. Not to mention that AU is breaking in a new DC. I know he's really good, but still, it's a new scheme. UF is facing the same thing on offense.
I'm just saying, it would be no more laughable to have AU above UF on this list, than it's having UF ahead of AU.

Thats not what the polls mean but we finished 29th last year and with two ne coordinators, the voters will not give us much love early on.
If we beat a ranked Clemson, we will be ranked by the time we play MSU.
