WHAT PENN STATE NOT RANKED...LOL... I wish we were good!!

At least Penn St. got some votes!!!
How about Hawaii......I don't think I've ever seen them in the top 25.

LSU #6???? No way, I love LSU and I was born and raised here, but there is no way they should be ranked 6 IMO. They will be good, yes, but they have major QB issues right now and it's Les Miles first year. They recieve some very good recruits in this year, including the best quarterback prospect in the country, but Russell has already been named the starting quarterback and we all saw what he was capable of last year. Nothing consistant at all! Go LSU, but I'm afraid they won't be up there for too long, specially when the SEC conference games start.... BY FAR THE HARDEST CONFERENCE IN THE NCAA! My prediction, LSU will finish about 13th or so.

Tigger. I think you may have lost your mind. LSU has a very good team in addition to a very favorable schedule. Nevermind this years recruits they pay off further down the road. You may be correct about the qb situation however, it was Russell's first year starting/sharing qb and I would think another year in the system would yield dramatic improvement. The kid is downright talanted as is the rest of the team. (I've been drinking and I forgot to post this earlier . Tennessee #3!!??!! :eek: NO FUCKING WAY.)

I agree here as well.... I am sick and tired of hearing about Texas and how great they are. WTF??? Why is it that at any point in time Texas is the highest ranked team with their number of losses and still outranks other teams with harder schedules and less losses? These polls, as well as ESPN are so biased sometimes, it's ridiculous. Great example of it, two years ago with LSU going to the title game and they would never give LSU thier due props... NOT EVEN AFTER THEY CONTROLLED AND DOMINATED OKLAHOMA WHEN NO ONE ELSE COULD DO IT!!!! Yet, another reason, along with guys like Sean Salisbury and Stephen A. Smith, to HATE espn.
