Agreed.

Clemson just doesnt seem to have that kill instinct, and with all the offensive talent they had last year, they just didnt seem to get it together. Thet have the POTENTIAL to be a top contending team, but they NEED to prove it.
 

ALL BOUT CHICKEN

i wonder if virginia tech's defense will still play at a high level after losing five starters, including brandon flowers, xavier adibi, and vince hall.

it could've been six, but macho harris withdrew his name from last year's draft.

he's been getting practice at wide receiver, and it looks like he'll be getting some playing time at the position...

Seriously OSU? Don't we all expect that USC would be able to trounce them?

Should they really be #2?
You know how it works...there are a handful of schools that get princess status at the beginning of every year regardless of proceeding years. It finally took 3 years of terrible football from ND for the AP to FINALLY not pre-rank them.

Im happy to alos not see Michigan in there.

But everyone knows Michigan is going to suck this year. OSU could easily lose to WI and Ill this year, let alone, a team like USC.

Yes it is the Big Ten. Yes it is Ohio State. Yes they are going to be good. No they don't deserve to be ranked that high.

I get your point though.

Shit, you preachin to the chior, man. Everyone knows the pre-season poll is a fuckin joke anyways...much like it is the most of the year.

Georgia and Clemson will drop out of the top 10 by week 6.
