| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Saban is Saban. |
| 2 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
I'm a sucker for great lines. Ohio State's OL and DL gives it a slight edge over FSU. |
| 3 |
Florida State Seminoles
|
|
| 4 |
Washington Huskies
|
Coaching and experience on the OL gives Washington a very slight edge over USC. |
| 5 |
USC Trojans
|
|
| 6 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
|
| 7 |
Clemson Tigers
|
|
| 8 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
|
| 9 |
Wisconsin Badgers
|
|
| 10 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
|
| 11 |
Auburn Tigers
|
Great backfield, concerning depth on defense. |
| 12 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
Replaces nearly everyone. Talent that remains is promising. |
| 13 |
LSU Tigers
|
They just need a competent QB. |
| 14 |
Louisville Cardinals
|
The Lamar Jackson show. |
| 15 |
Florida Gators
|
|
| 16 |
USF Bulls
|
|
| 17 |
Stanford Cardinal
|
Had a sneaky good season in 2016. I've learned to never discount Shaw. Optimistic about QB Keller Chryst and RB Bryce Love.  |
| 18 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
|
| 19 |
Texas Longhorns
|
|
| 20 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
|
| 21 |
TCU Horned Frogs
|
Love the experience they're returning. Not so big on the QB that's returning. |
| 22 |
Washington State Cougars
|
|
| 23 |
NC State Wolfpack
|
Brings back a ton of experience. Features one of the best defensive fronts in the country. Will be overshadowed by the rest of it's division.  |
| 24 |
Kansas State Wildcats
|
Great backfield, OL and secondary. Concerns over their front seven. |
| 25 |
Colorado Buffaloes
|
Replacing their entire defense along with their coordinator. Excited about their backfield's potential and their WR corp. They are going to take a step back from last year, but here's thinking that MacIntyre has brought enough stability to have the Buffs still competitive.  |
