What is your College Football Top 10?

[daneblazer]

1. Alabama
2. Ohio State
3. Texas A&M
4. Oregon
5. Georgia
6. LSU
7. Florida State
8. South Carolina
9. Clemson
10. Louisville

Alabama, Oregon, Ohio State, Georgia, Louisville only teams projected to be favored in every game.

Phil Steele's top 10 leaked...

[MoneyLineDawg]

1. Bama
2. Texas A&M
3. South Carolina
4. Georgia
5. Oregon
6. LSU
7. Ohio State
8. Louisville
9. Stanford
10. TCU

Florida, Michigan, Florida State, Clemson just missed

[itchypickle]

Looks solid for preseason rankings but not sure FLorida St and the Aggies will finish with less than 2 losses.

I'm a homer but a realist at the same time so I see Bama back in the title game. Look for Stanford to surprise some people this year and be up there in the Top 10 making noise if not higher.

By way of attrition of course the better teams (LSU,BAMA,GEORGIA) will give way to a weaker Ohio St or ACC team to sneak into the dance at the end and be mauled.

10. Texas

Anyone who really believes that the top 4 teams are from the SEC has a serious homer problem. I will guarantee you that the SEC will NOT have two teams in Pasadean for the big game, and may not have one.

[BigdaddyQH]

The SEC Homers are out in force today. Let's see what happens when Ohio State and one other AQ team not from the SEC run the table and the SEC is shut out of the big game.

What does that prove? If that happens it will be because SEC teams beat eachother up which happens every year anyway, and a good team or 2 in a lower conference skates by with a much easier schedule.......doesn't mean those 2 teams are better than 4 or even 5 SEC teams just because they get ranked higher by virtue of an easier schedule

Until someone knocks the SEC off, the SEC Champion will continue to play for the title, and rightfully so

Ohio St definitely has a cake schedule tailored to go undefeated (Buffalo, Florida A&M, San Diego State) not to mention the drop off in the conference outside of Iowa and maybe Northwestern. But we all know if it comes down to the usual winner of Bama/LSU vs Georgia in Atlanta....thats the defacto championship right there and the winner will get either the Bucs or the loser from game 1 this year.

Gamecocks have beaten UGA 3 straight seasons, and have 1 loss in 3 years against SEC East competition, yet somehow only 1 SEC East title in the last 3......They are better than the Bulldogs but have had much tougher SEC West opponents which has cost us the East the last 2 seasons.....No excuses, just the reality

This year, the schedules look pretty even so don't count SCAR out of Atlanta just yet

[Louisvillekid1]

Louisville will 100% finish above ND and FSU just because of SOS alone...

I agree....Cocks have had the tougher rotation with the West. Haven't looked really hard at the depth chart this year but I think they missed their shot the last year or so with the talent they had. Decent playmaker at QB this year coming back (who I thought should have played more even before Garcia got booted) but not a believer yet in the line/backfield and some good NFL receivers are gone now. Defense should be stout still, even with Clowney missing the Spring time. This year's East shuffle between the USC/UGA/UF matches will be as brutal as the previous West with ALA/LSU/ARK beating up on each other.

I wish your boys luck though....I like Murray for UGA but can't stand Richt and that program as a whole so would much rather the Cocks get the shot this year.

Fair post ....

Our o-line was young and returns 4 of 5 starters.....I like Davis and Wilds at RB, they are young and talented but need to prove themselves obviously......WR and TE playmakers all over the place, but obviously some are unproven.

Defense will be fine

Murray and UGA may have a tad bit more talent on paper but Spurrier always outcoaches the shit out of Richt.....Should be a tough game in Athens though no matter what

Would love to see us get a shot at Bama, but it's going to be tough, as always

[BigdaddyQH]

South Carolina's problem is that they simply cannot lose less than two regular season games a year. Spurrier never has. He will find a way to lose two confernce games again this season, even though he has a soft sonference schedule. South Carolina plays three conference away games n a row, at Arkansas, Tennessee and Missouri. They will lose one or more of those games, plus either to UGA or Florida.

Well SC has never had a soft conference schedule until this season......The 2 losses last season were @LSU and @Florida, certainly nothing to be ashamed of

[BigdaddyQH]

Agreed, but what about all of the other years? It is Spurrier. He just can't keep his team going for an entire season.

Not sure what you're getting at....SCAR has been very talented but not on the level of 2-3 deep at every position like Bama or LSU. They won the SEC East in 2010 and finished top 10 in the rankings in 2011 and 2012 with new years day bowl wins in both seasons......Pretty damn good accomplishments by Spurrier

Not everyone in the SEC can go undefeated every season, it is not physically possible when they all play eachother.......This season the schedule is finally in our favor a little bit but is still very tough

[BigdaddyQH]

The SEC is afraid to play the Pac 12, because they know that unless they are playing the bottom echelon, they will get a tail whipping. Auburn was the exception, and they had to cheat to do that. USC makes a habit out of crushing SEC teams. That's why no one will schedule them and the one that did (A&M) ran and hid behind mommy's apron when they chickened out of the series.

South Carolina backed into the 2010 SEC East Championship because the SEC East was that bad, only to get crushed by Auburn. To prove that it was not a fluke, they then got whipped by Florida State as a 2.5 point favorite in their bowl game.

[Deuce]

Michigan will crack the top 10 this season. QB has a year under his belt and they are crushing the recruiting trail.

They will be very good.....Could see them beating Ohio State at the end to crush their season

Can you really speak of Auburn "cheating" while using USC as your poster child. And of course SEC is scared of PAC 12, they had 2 real legit teams last year and one of them lost to Notre Dame (yes, that Notre Dame)

I love this time of year, everyone has a reason why the SEC is just not that good. I'm not going to sit hear and act like on any given Saturday that certain power teams from power conferences couldn't line up and beat some of the SECs best but to act like week in and week out that conference is not currently the best in college football is laughable. Every measure available says otherwise.

But by all means, carry on trying to get a rise out of people pounding the SEC is just not that good card. Maybe you get lucky and a few teams from other conferences go undefeated so you can parade there national championship because nobody from SEC managed to not lose.

Happens EVERY summer about now. Hype up the Ohio States, the Oklahomas, the USCs, Notre Dames, Oregons and Oklahoma States to get the conversations going.

Then we get to the field and remember what has happened each time...Florida vs Ohio State... LSU vs Oklahoma, Alabama vs Texas, Auburn vs Oregon and most recently Bama vs Notre Dame - Mushburger had the quote of the game on the initial TD "wow, that looked pretty easy, this might be a long night"

We all know whats coming though, downsouth. Someone will eventually beat the SEC in a title game...and it'll be once in a decade yet the rest of the country will scream "see they were just a paper tiger, they were exposed...yeah we won 1 outta 10 they SUCK"

[BigdaddyQH]

The SEC will NOT have a team in this year's BCS game, because Ohio State and at least one other AQ team will go undefeated and the SEC teams will not. Actually that is fine because we really do not need a bunch of drunk Rebels in Pasadena. The good news is that next season, there will be a playoff just about guaranteeing the SEC a spot in the semi's. Ofcourse they will have to defeat two teams, and that probably will not happen, but at least it will put you SEC people in your place. By the way, get ready to donate heavily to my wallet this season.

So let's see what you SEC people are made of. Clemson is +3.5 vs Georgia for the opener. Any SEC lovers want Georgia giving 3.5? What about you, DownSouth? That is the Georgia logo, is it not? Willing to back your team and give 3.5?

Anyone want to bet that 1 outta 10 will be Georgia this year

[daneblazer]

SC has a few traps on their schedule.

Vandy after the Georgia game. UCF on the road where it'll be hotter than 10 hells. @UT who will be coming off a bye week sandwiched in between @Arkansas and @Mizzou. Not a complete walk in the in park

A 1 loss SEC team will be in the BCS Championship regardless of what else happens.....And basically what you're saying is the only way to knock the SEC off the Championship run is by not including them in the title game altogether.....And not by beating them straight up ( Which no one has done in years)....Sounds pretty pu$sy to me

I'll take Georgia Moneyline over Clemson when the line comes out......

Not in the walk in the park at all, but I'll take tricky and "trap" games over @LSU, @Florida, vs. Bama, @Arky (with Petrino), etc

No excuses this season not to be in Atlanta....Of course UGA and Florida will be saying the same thing

Wow. Phil Steele has Texas all the way up at #4, huh? Cool.

I think people that count on A&M having a big letdown are going to be disappointed. Johnny Heisman looks absolutely unreal so far. He didn't fake his way to that trophy.
