SEC dominating this list too.

1. Tennessee

quote:

Anyway, I believe Tennessee is going to be good this year. In fact, I think they have a really good shot at winning the SEC East, and should they do that, I've no doubt that they'll be ranked in the top 10. Where we run into problems is that, since coming to Tennessee, Jones has gone 3-13 against top 25 teams and 0-9 against teams ranked in the top 10. There have been some close calls, sure, but shouldn't Tennessee actually beat a team ranked in the top 10 before we put it there? Last season was the first time Tennessee had a winning SEC record since 2007.

Again, I believe Tennessee is going to be good in 2016, I'd just like to seem them actually be good before we just hand them that top 10 spot.


2. Washington

3. LSU
quote:

Remember how well last year went for LSU? Things were so great that many members of the Louisiana state government were trying to get Les Miles fired. They failed, obviously, because nobody has more power in Louisiana than Miles.

Sure, LSU finished 9-3, which isn't bad at all, but those three losses came in consecutive weeks in November after a 7-0 start, derailing the entire season. The offense, which consisted of Leonard Fournette being the first five options, stalled and had trouble scoring. The defense had more trouble stopping other teams than we're accustomed to seeing from LSU.


4. Southern Cal
5. Ohio State

So that guy thinks Tennessee is a top 10 team but has a problem with them being ranked in the top 10?

LSU has become a perennial fixture on this list.

I like Lsu's ranking they bring a lot depth and talent this year. OSU is very overrated and i believe Ole Miss is too.

I have no problem with where Tennessee or LSU is ranked. I think they are right where they need/deserve to be. Rankings get adjusted during the season for a reason. If they deserve the ranking they will stay there. if they do not they will fall. I'm willing to bet both stay very high.

Wow they breed them stupid in Tennessee. He's saying the Vols have the POTENTIAL to be a top 10 team at the end of this season, but that potential doesn't mean they should currently be in the top 10. Of course a potential championship is the same as winning one to Vol fans.
