As a predicted finish, which is what Brando say this is, this actually isn't that laughable in my opinion.

Louisville and Ohio State have easy schedules and could easily be in the running for the BCSCG at the end of season. They might not be the best teams, but they both have good chances of running the table. Louisville could definitely beat Ohio State too.

The game between A&M and Bama is at A&M. A&M wins that (which is certainly possible - should be a good game) and A&M would be in the driver's seat for a very high ranking, possibly winning the West and the SEC.

Stanford and Oregon are clearly the cream of the crop in the West so both could finish top 10.

Clemson is going to be very good and has an easy ACC schedule.

Etc. Etc.

I don't really agree with the list and I don't think it reflects who the best teams are, but it wouldn't be that crazy of a top 10 at the end of the season.

agree with this ....

this is not really a pre-season top 10 ... its how he thinks the season will finish...

out of the 25 games ( includes big ccg ) ohio st & uol will be favored in all of them, most by double digits...

those 2 could easily end up 1 and 2. rember the coaches poll & ap poll are more like a pole position in racing, rarely do you fall if you win .. and they will both start out in the top 10 if not top 5... so 1 loss by any sec school puts them in a spot.

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.
