Rank	Team	Reason
1	Clemson Tigers	I think we all know everyone's #1 and #2. Bama and Clemson were the top two teams last year. Clemson returns virtually every key piece of their offense from last year, Higgins, Ross, Etienne, Lawrence, etc. and there's no reason that Brent Venables won't reload on the other side of the ball, despite losing their all-world defensive line. Giving Clemson the edge based primarily on last years championship game.
2	Alabama Crimson Tide	See Clemson.
3	Georgia Bulldogs
4	LSU Tigers
5	Oregon Ducks
