I stopped reading when they had TCU listed in the top 10. It's highly unlikely that they go undefeated again this year with all the players that they've lost.

I was thinking Green Bay Packers, Patriots ...

Maybe, can't say for sure. Some of those teams make sense.

I agree with about three or four of this list.

There are 20+ teams who could beat any team from the SEC for the national title. I just think only 5 of those teams they mentioned qualify.
You have to have quality on both lines to win a national title no matter what conference you're from. IMO that knocks out OSUcental, the Cardinal, and A&M. Then you have to have a quality QB and physical receivers, which knocks out the Mid-majors (for this year last year different story for both).
I think you can add teams like Nebraska, OSU, PSU, Texas, Clemson, Miami, ND etc. who have the talent coming in at all those positions, and it's more just a matter of having all the pieces together for a year.

TCU had a shot at beating Florida and got molested on national tv. Texas had a shot and spent the first half of the game looking like a high school team. Oregon came closest, but still lost. Oklahoma didn't fare too well against Florida either.
Imo Oklahoma probably has the best shot of any of the teams listed.

This guy is an idiot.
There aren't many teams that could challenge the SEC
Teams I have in the top 10 that aren't from the SEC:
FSU
Oklahoma
Wisconsin
OK State
Nebraska
VT
USCE
Notre Dame

TCU never played Florida. It was Cincinnati that got molested by Florida on national TV.

And I honestly don't think any of those teams outside of Oklahoma and maybe Nebraska would have a chance at beating a top SEC team straight-up this year. Notre Dame and Florida State are still one or two years away from building a team strong enough to challenge the SEC powers and I'm not impressed at all with the other teams.

Idk about that but I still have LSU/Bama in the top 3.

I disagree. I think FSU can compete. We will see in week 3 when they play Oklahoma.

Does the list of teams change if it's Arkansas or USCe (the other SEC Title contenders) in the title game and not Bama/LSU?
