So aTm and Georgia have 1 loss, Bama has 2 is how it looks to me. Possible, I guess.

It's really not that far fetched to think we drop games to LSU and A&M.

Brando has long been an Alabama hater. Or pretends to be, drumming up controversy with a fanbase that can get riled up easily.

im Brando's Preseason Top 10 (Try Not To Laugh)

He's probably sayin:
1. Louisville - 12-0 schedule plus returning a great QB
2. Ohio State - 13-0 schedule, great QB, great coach
3. Texas A&M - 13-0 great QB Bascially saying they beat A&M/LSU, their OOC/East opponents don't help
4. Stanford - 13-0, beat Oregon again, will beat ND
5. Georgia - 12-1, lose in ATL
6. Clemson - 12-1, beat FSu and SCar
7. Alabama - 11-1, lose to A&M
8. Oklahoma State, 12-0
9. Oregon - 11-1
10. Oklahoma - lose to OSU

Preseason, who knows. Tim loves him some LSU but I'm pretty sure he's saying the Tigers are hosed this year and the LSU/TCU will feature losers of at least 5 games

This must be based on where he thinks they end up at the end of the regular season based on schedule or something.

I would love to ask him to line up Louisville's players position against position against Alabama or Georgia and find one position group Louisville comes even close to winning besides arguably QB.

Not at all. For LSU to beat Bama at home and end up outside of the top 10? I guess they lose to aTm, Georgia, and Florida. Possible, I guess. Just bored really, trying to get into the wonderful brain of Timmy B.

this actually isn't that laughable in my opinion.

I agree. Like you said, doesn't mean they are 10 best teams, in order. But going by record, his list is probably just as good as anyone else.

Second of all, no way Louisville would win a BCSNCG against any of those other Top Ten teams.


Louisville is almost always good for dropping one they shouldn't so I don't see it happening. And even if they go undefeated the SoS is so poor I can see the computers leap frogging them with a one loss team.

I think he assumes 1 and 2 fall like this. However, A&M is ahead of L'ville and OSU if they are undefeated, but not if they win the SEC maybe

Same with OSU likely, so they need to have a loss

Jesus, Mizzou could run that schedule. That is absolutely pitiful. I will be pulling hard for UK.

They go undefeated, and they will be in the natty. You run the SEC table, you're in over Louisville.

That's the way it should be, but for whatever reason he thinks UL gets the nod. I might be wrong, just guessing. He hasn't posted actual predicted records, as far as I know.

6. Clemson


Got the LSU bump, I see. I believe they lose Hopkins, and he was the only reason Clemson won. So yeah, frick this pick.

It's strange seeing LSU this far off the radar. Makes for greater anticipation for the season (especially if the forecasters are wrong).

A one loss SEC winner will get in over Louisville and Ohio State with their ridiculous schedules.
