OLine wasn't great last year but they do return two starters, the big one being J.C. Latham. \r\n\r\nHowever, the defense is going to be really dominant this year under Kevin Steele. Dallas Turner isn't Will Anderson, but that's about as good of a replacement as you could find. There are 2 other defensive starters returning up front, and while LB doesn't have a returning starter the talent in that room should shine this season.

They also return 3 starters at WR, all of who should play in the NFL in some capacity. Losing Travis Dye is tough but MarShawn Lloyd should hopefully replace some of his toughness and talent. You also have Raleek Brown in the backfield as well, which should help the offensive line mesh as they only return two starters. \r\n\r\nThe defense was a nightmare last year, but I'm one of the few people on earth who believe in Alex Grinch. And mostly I believe in the shit ton of transfers they brought in on defense. Bear Alexander is the headliner, but Jahlil Muhammad and Solomon Byrd are just a few of the players USC is going to use this year up front that hopefully should give them a presence in the middle. The big thing though was Mason Cobb transferring in from Oklahoma State, which should be a major improvement as the USC linebackers couldn't tackle to save a life. That LB core needs to make major strides in order for the Trojans to succeed, as does the secondary though they return 3 starters.

The big news however was the transfer of Keon Coleman from Michigan State who along with Johnny Wilson is the best receiving group in the ACC. 3 starters return up front along with multiple P5 transfers which should make a solid front 5.\r\n\r\nBringing back Jared Verse is major, and alongside Patrick Payton, they might actually have a better pass rush than Clemson this season. They bring back every single starting linebacker and 3 starters from the secondary. Florida State also brought in several transfers on the defensive side of the ball as well, and the goal should be being a top 10 all-around defensive unit in CFB. The Seminoles are a veteran-heavy roster that would make for an old-time title favorite, but they lack the top recruits modern title teams have had. However, with only 2 losable games on the schedule and more experience than anybody in CFB, FSU should be thinking about bucking the blue-chip ratio and competing for a national title." }, { "rank": 9, "team": { "id": 22, "handle": "texas", "name": "Texas Longhorns" }, "rationale": "Admittedly, I wanted to put Texas at #3 because I'm fully in the \"Texas is back\" camp this year. And that starts with Quinn Ewers, who while not perfect showed enough flashes to make me believe that there's a lot of good football ahead of him. Losing Bijan is massive along with Roschon Johnson, but Texas is going to have an arsenal of guys to imploy an RBBC until somebody emerges out of that room. The WR room is loaded with Xavier Worthy returning, Isiah Neyor coming back from an injury, Jordan Whittington, and transfer AD Mitchell from Georgia. Plus first team Big 12 TE in Ja'Tavyion Sanders gives the Longhorns no excuse to not have an elite passing game. Plus every single offensive line starter returns from a very impressive unit last year, headlined by 2025 1st-round pick Kelvin Banks Jr.\r\n\r\nThe defense is solid. 3 huge pieces of last year's defensive line return which should be in the top of the Big 12 in disruption once again, along with a solid LB group. Jalen Catalon could be a massive pickup if he returns to 2021 form but the secondary needs to show a bit more in order to restore faith. Texas sneakily had a pretty good year on the defense and could be a top-25 unit this season if things break right. At their peak this team can win the national title, but they have to perform better in close games if they want to truly contend for anything. You're not going to blow out everybody, especially with their schedule, and 2-5 in one-score games is not going to cut it. " }, { "rank": 10, "team": { "id": 2, "handle": "clemson", "name": "Clemson Tigers" }, "rationale": "Klubnik has talent, it's whether the rest of the passing game has talent as well. Cade wasn't perfect but he does look like a guy who could put up big numbers if the guys around him step up. However outside Antonio Williams, Will Shipley, and Jake Bringstool that is a massive question. The WR room for Clemson has not been drawing rave reviews from camp which is a huge concern given the Tigers have had this issue for the past 3 seasons and it's really hampered their offense. Will Shipley will be a potential All-American once again but it'd be nice if somebody young in the WR room like Cole Turner stepped up and gave Clemson some versatility at wideout. The offensive line returns 4 starters which should be a huge help for Cade.\r\n\r\nDefensively, they'll be great The question is whether this is a top 20 defense or a top 3 defense. Xavier Thomas returns for another season along with two other defensive line starters but the loss of two 1st round picks on the DLine is a huge hole they don't have a obvious fill for. Clemson does have the best linebacking duo with Jermeiah Trotter Jr. and Barrett Carter both being future NFL starters. While Clemson's secondary was disappointing last season, they bring back 4 starters who hopefully will improve next season. Clemson has national title potential, but they're going to need to make some major strides in the passing offense and defense if they want to return to the playoffs in 2023.

polls are so hard if you're not following all of the teams incredibly closely. It's much easier to get a sense of where teams are and how they'll do once the season starts\r\n\r\nSo what I did this year is tried to create a ranking based on recruiting and prior year performance. I got the data from collegefootballdata.com and ESPN and messed around with the weighting until I got a result that made sense to me. This isn't something i'll base my polls off of going forward, but thought it would be fun to do it week one and see how it looks when I look back in a few weeks. After a week or two of games i'll move back to my human poll\r\n\r\nFactors used\r\n\r\nRecruiting Factor - Weighted 40% of total, meant to be a factor showing overall roster talent (didn't account for transfers out/early leavers for the draft because I have no clue how to do that)\r\n Factors within recruiting\r\n - 24/7 Composite total - 75% of Recruiting Total - Pulled the composite numbers for 2023 (20%), 2022 (32.5%), 2021 (30%), and 2020 (17.5%). I weighted the importance of recruiting years based on how I feel that each year would impact the current year\r\n - 24/7 Rankings - 25% of Recruiting Total - Same as above, just the rankings instead of Composite\r\n\r\nPoll Factor - Weighted 25% of total - Meant to be a factor bringing in prior year performance and valuing those who had a good year last year\r\n- Final AP Poll - 75% of poll factor - This is only the top 25 plus receiving votes (in votes received order, ended up with around 39 numbered teams total) of the prior year, anyone not in this was numbered 50 to not skew these rankings\r\n- Final S&P+ rankings - 25% of poll factor - This is a full ranking of the top 130ish teams - thought this would be helpful to add because it actually ranks all teams not just 25\r\n\r\nProduction Factor - Weighted 35% of total - Meant to be a factor weighing returning production/starters. This is based on Bill Connley's article on returning production - this is from February so it's highly possible that it's outdated, but i'm not sure if there's a more recent one. You can read his article for the methodology he takes https://www.espn.com/college-football/insider/story/_/id/35577489/college-football-teams-returning-production-2023-season\r\n-Weighted Offense Factor - 50% of production factor, made up of following\r\n- Returning offense production - 60% of weighted offense\r\n- Offense unit rank - 40% of weighted offense - based on the S&P+ offense ranks\r\n- Weighted Defense Factor - 50% of production factor, made up of following\r\n- Returning defense production - 60% of weighted defense\r\n- Defense unit rank - 40% of weighted defense - based on the S&P+ defense ranks\r\n\r\nI'll put the weighted ranking of each team below in my \"reasons\" as well", "entries": [ { "rank": 1, "team": { "id": 29, "handle": "michigan", "name": "Michigan Wolverines" }, "rationale": "Recruiting Rank #11\r\nPoll Rank #2\r\nProduction Rank #1\r\n\r\nOverall Weighted Number 5.25\r\n\r\nI think this isn't too out of line, Michigan should be a top team and they're boosted by returning some great players from last years roster" }, { "rank": 2, "team": { "id": 34, "handle": "ohiostate", "name": "Ohio State Buckeyes" }, "rationale": "Recruiting Rank #3\r\nPoll Rank #4\r\nProduction Rank #13\r\n\r\nOverall Weighted Number 6.75\r\n\r\nKind of the opposite of above, better recruiting numbers but a little worse returning numbers makes Ohio State number 2" }, { "rank": 3, "team": { "id": 2, "handle": "clemson", "name": "Clemson Tigers" }, "rationale": "Recruiting Rank #5\r\nPoll Rank #12\r\nProduction Rank #14\r\n\r\nOverall Weighted Number 9.9\r\n\r\nStill making sense so far" }, { "rank": 4, "team": { "id": 22, "handle": "texas", "name": "Texas Longhorns" }, "rationale": "Recruiting Rank #7\r\nPoll Rank #19\r\nProduction Rank #7\r\n\r\nOverall Weighted Number 10\r\n\r\nTexas is BACK!!!
