While plenty of big things are going to happen until then, here's the best guess of what the rankings might be, keeping in mind 1) the perception of the teams at the end of 2012, 2) the returning talent, and 3) the brand name and how the voters usually rank to the top programs. One other thing to remember here, these are NOT the CFN rankings. This is what we think they're going to be to start the season and not a ranking of the best teams going into the year.

Based on the schedule alone . . . A&M should be no better than 8.

That list is a giant WTF? Everything after #1 is bullshite. They might as well had put Florida State @2.

6 vs 7 under the lights to open the season. Gonna be a hell of a game.

Shouldn't Georgia have to beat South Carolina at some point this decade before they get automatically ranked ahead of them?

Clemson and Louisville above UGA and USCe

Why? We finished higher than them in the final poll last year and aren't preseason polls based on the season coming up, not the past season.

Ohio State at #2 actually makes a ton of sense

So, no, Georgia doesn't have to beat a team it is perennially ranked ahead of? Also, if the first poll is made without any bias from the last year, you have a lot of explaining to do with your methodology. I don't expect you to be capable of doing it, however, since commas appear too complex for you.

So what do you think this is based on....some guy randomly pulling shite out of a hat.

I cant take a list seriously that has clemson ahead of us. They actually have a fairly tough schedule because of playing uGa. If they 1-2 against them, us, and fsu, they shouldnt finish near the top ten. Just kind of a slap in the face to have them and uga right ahead of us.

Why don't you ask the mongoloid who posted directly above you?

Isn't Michigan coming off of a 5 loss season? Otherwise, looks okay I guess.
