My impressions up to now

An honest assessment of the top team(s) in the country are between these (3) in no particular order....LSU, Clemson, Ohio State.

I'm not going to be lulled into thinking Clemson isn't going to win this thing again. They have superior athletes on both sides of the ball, and granted, their schedule is just horrible, but, against good competition, I'd still put my money on them. Their only problem is being "lulled to sleep"by inferior competition. Big word regarding Clemson is keeping them motivated. That's a coach's job, and nobody is better than Dabo and Venables.


LSU, no doubt, has a great, great offense... but defensively they are at best a little above average. The big problem is depth, and they will get worn out by the likes of Clemson and OSU. Still, there is something magical about the Tigers this year, and that is primarily due to Burrow. We'll never see the likes of a guy like that again for a long time at LSU.


Now, OSU... I've seen them numerous times this year, like LSU and Clemson.. and this team is the best I have ever seen. They don't have weaknesses at any position and are so deep at every position with super athletes it's ridiculous. The thing that impresses me most about them is how effortlessly and efficiently they play under Ryan Day and his staff. That wasn't the case under Meyer where you could detect a lot of stress and anxiety.

Anything can happen in football so take your pick.
