I hate it when VT starts the season so high.

Kragthorpe will have a lot of expectations at Lousiville, #5 pre-season and replacing Petrino.

ohio state isnt even in the top 10?

^^^^^^^^

Why would they ?

Purrrrrfect!

To quote The Happenings from '66....See You In September

WV and Louisville get high rankings because they play no one. If that is the case then Texas should also get that high of a ranking. We get every good team on our schedule at home. Our whole season once again revolves around beating the spooners. We do that and will likely go undefeated .

to tell you the truth outside of the big east representation I have no real objection to that list.

My list would probably look like this

1. USC Easily the most talented team in the country
2. LSU easily the 2nd most talented team despite their coach
3. Florida they lost a lot but they still have lots of talent waiting
4. FSU coaching changes make all the difference
5. Texas few questions but likely a one loss team
6. Michigan Offense should be great defense is a question
7. tOSU Defense should be great offense is a question
8. Oklahoma - Will be great if they can find a QB
9. Vtech - Best game in September will be VT vs. LSU if they win they could go undefeated until they meet FSU.
10 WVU - Someone has to win that conference and they do have some nice offensive talent.

B/c they are one of the Top Programs in the country, have tons of talent and have on of the best coaches in the game.

Rightfully so. Way too much to replace on offense after the departures of Smith, Ginn, Pittman, & Gonzales. Although we are a tad thin at DT, the defense looks to be really special. On paper, this team reminds me a bit of the '02 NC team. Solid defense, good running back, heady QB. The schedule stacks up nicely, we'll see where we're at after Oct. 27th versus Penn State.

You play @ Kyle. We are returning just about every starter, especially those at the skill positions. Nice troll job, though.

Come on, Bill...the Big East is tough, and they beat up on each other.

I'm sorry for ya stuckina if you attend that game. Leave the women and children at home, Baton Rouge on Saturday is no place for a family. Bring ear plugs, rubber gloves, and a cattle prod.

DON'T RIDE A BUS TO THE GAME!!!

I was trolling when I didn't make an exception for blOwU, I was serious when I considered aggsy. You freaks will have minimum of 5 losses next year, not including your yearly bowl loss.

ATM has bode on you guys and should be an improved team this year. I wouldn't be counting that W just-yet. Texas will definitely be a contender and should finish with a better record than the aggies but this is a loseable game. Considering ATM doesn't have a green-qb(like OU) and the game is at Kyle I'd say they are as big a threat to you as OU.

That Nov. 3 game in Stillwater won't be a picnic for you I bet.
That offense could be awfully good. Those dudes get rolling at home and they'll do some damage.
Plus I hope they lobby for an evening TV game.
