    I didn't think Clemson was projected to be that good a team.

    They have a pretty offense and hype as always....Weak in the trenches and on defense until proven otherwise

    In for a rude awakening against UGA week 1 and will lose to South Carolina for the 5th straight season

    Florida has no chance of being in the top 10 at the end of this year.

    They might as well call it the SEC RULES POLL.

    Chalky: ASU > U of A this season? Have been following the PAC-12 a bit more as of late. Was mainly a BIG-10/BIG-12 guey.

    Seems that way. Zona is getting a few dark horse nominations to take the south. But on paper, ASU > UofA. Meaning, if history is indication of future results, Arizona should beat ASU this year

    Our schedule this year is loads easier than last, where we got 8 wins. It's also a helluva lot easier than ASU's who has a total of 9.5.

    I truly cannot see ASU winning 10 games.

    Even if both are undefeated I think a 1-loss SEC team should get the nod over one of the two. Remember what happened to an undefeated ND last year to a 1-loss SEC team?

    That Notre Dame team was the biggest fraud I've seen in years. YEARS!

    Stanford and OSU will be legit this year. But I think you're right, an SEC team will be there. I just like to dream.

    They do rule though. SEC lineman beat everyone down at some point in a game then it is over. I hope Louisville makes it in the championship though.

    Georgia has a rough start to their schedule. 3 of their first 4 games are @Clemson vs.SCar and vs.LSU. If they go 2-1 in those 3 games that is a huge win for Georgia.

    Same story every year they find a way to win and keep games close despite their qbs although I think he'll be better in his second year of course he has some really really nice targets... Miles said they'll be throwing a lot more but he's still run the ball down your throat play excellent defense in other words he's still old school

    almost like a UFC champion who has the belt. If it's an SEC 1-loss team I still think they deserve to be in the championship game until someone proves they can beat them

    2-loss team is a different story
