Again I berate my own alma matre. No way Texas is Top 5 unless Colt McCoy goes nuts. Our offensive line is decimated (injuries and gradutation). We lost our defensive coordinator. Some of our best recruits kicked off the team... thank God they act up before the season so we can get them out.

I don't know if they are going to be there in the end, but whoever plays them is going to have to score a bunch of points to beat WVU. They actually might have the top two Heisman candidates.

at least they'll make a major bowl because of the cupcake schedule they play.

I am a Buckeye, and will forever be, but a #11 ranking is way too high. It is going to be a long, long year in Columbus, and I can only hope it will not be a continuation of the National Championship game.

College Football is the biggest bullshit there is. I will become a serious fan once they wake up and go to a playoff type environment, 16 teams, 4 weekends (8-4-2-1)

The Big East has three teams ranked in the top 16. The Big 12 has 2. The SEC has 4. The Pac 10 has 3, The Acc has 1, The Big 10 has 3. I think the Big East is just fine. LSU plays a very fortunate schedule this year in that all of it's tough games are at home. I give them credit for playing Va. Tech because some of the other SEC schools seem to be content with cupcake city outside of the league schedule.

Their defense will win them alot of games this year, but Glennon will be their downfall.

ought to make up for that horrendous away schedule they had last year.

deltagulf 08-20-2007 07:47 PM

people seem to forget these college schedule are made years in advance.
lsu first game is just 10 days away. against mississippi state.

go tigers!!

Danzig 08-20-2007 08:04 PM

also funny how cupcake schedules are decried. they ALL play them. difference is in the big games, and the SEC is thought by most to be the toughest conference. with good reason!
a certain team was mentioned last year as deserving being named national champs as they went undefeated. they beat exactly one ranked team all year, in the last play of a very close bowl game. now THAT's crazy.
