Clemson Tigers
|
Alabama definitely played a better opponent and you can only learn so much from Kent State, but this is still the reigning champion and they did exactly what you need to do against a weaker opponent. Excited for Auburn |
| 2 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Bama is probably the best team in the country. Defense is spooky, offense looks flawed. |
| 3 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Scary good offense, Barkley is going to have a fun year, My pick to win the B1G. |
| 4 |
Oklahoma Sooners
|
|
| 5 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
|
| 6 |
Michigan Wolverines
|
Not sure the offense will be enough to win big with Speight under center, but the defense is as rock solid as Don Brown's mustache. |
| 7 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Flawed team but ridiculously talented. If they click like they did in the 3rd quarter vs Indiana they'll be an absolute bear to beat. |

FSU is a damn good team, and that defense is the truth. I just struggle to see them much higher without their QB. I'm pulling for them and want to see them much higher, but losing Frenchy is just brutal. |
