How is Notre Lame in the top 20?

They're Notre Dame.

 

[Vol Catdaddy]

They're Notre Dame.

whatever! they shouldn't be ranked that high in any poll they had no defense to begin with and they lost there QB,and star wideout

 

[checkerboards09]

I don't see how Auburn is 15

 

[raynochonspeed]

The greater indictment is:

Does anyone disagree?

 

[TXA&M07]

I'd say overall, the Big12 does not have a legit National Champion contender this year. I'll admit that now.

 

[n_gerard07]

Yea really think Nebraska is going to be the best team in the big 12 and with their lack of offensive production I still wouldn't consider them a national title contender. This will probably be the year that boise state gets to play in the big game. and probably the year they get to lose to a one loss SEC team...

by the way

Gig 'Em :good!:

[VegasVol]

How is Notre Lame in the top 20?

Because, by Steele's ranking, he only sees 1 top-25 opponent they face all season.

 

[railvol]

Gonna be a looooong year for my beloved vols.....

 

[droski]

i'll bet the farm oregon state has a better year than arizona.

 

[lawgator1]

You have a farm?

 

[droski]

[utvolpj]

i have a couple of plants. . .

[lawgator1]

The pond would be good for you.

[PandamoniumReigns]

Ohio State - quickly becoming the new Notre Dame as far as overranking is concerned.

It's not how they should work.

 

[BigOrangePassion1]

[BallerVol]

They're Notre Dame.

Says the USC fan. I mean USC is probably the most liked team by the poles.

 

[RhodeIslandVol]

OU at #1? What? They lost exactly one million people in the draft.

It's also funny how there are so many ACC teams in preseason polls, only to see VT and maybe Miami be the only ones to somehow sneak in towards the end of the season.

Is anyone really that good this year?

Where's Ga Tech?

 

[TXA&M07]

Taking Ou out of the Big12 South is not that far fetched. They wont be in the top 4 by the end of the year though.

To answer your question as to "who's good?" - Alabama and TCU.
