1.Alabama
2.Texas
3.Ohio St.
4.Boise
5.Penn St.
6.Neb

Penn State is losing a ton of bodies and faces Alabama, Iowa, and Ohio State all on the road. They won't be a Top-5 team.

1 Bama
2 Ohio St
3 Boise
Thats my top 3 and I will be shocked if Boise isn't there in the top 5 when the polls come out. They deserve it.

Va Tech could be in the top 5 with the returning people they have, IMO they beat Boise and put that little big school to rest once and for all

It is way too early for Top 25 predictions, but 'Bama will NOT be our #1 team when we come out with a Top 25. Not with the losses they will sustain on defense. Right now, Boise Stae is our #1, followed by Ohio State and then Alabama, who will not return to the BCS Championship game, because they will not go undefeated.

Easy big daddy.....The key word in this thread is FUN......And just because Your group doesnt list Bama first doesnt make it so.....they earned the right to be #1.....10 of Bama's opponents next year played in bowl games this year, and 6 of the teams Bama plays come off a bye week so it will be difficult for Bama to go undefeated.....but dont be too concerned about Bama's defensive woes. They have great talent to replace the talent lost....IMO our defense will be better. Cody wasnt near as good as the hype.and Mclain leaving will cause others to assume leadership roles on the team....during the year Bama had several players play as much as starters preparing them for this year...remember re-load not rebuild

This is where you are mistaken my friend. Our group gets paid to make these predictions. By no means are we saying that Alabama will not have a very good team. What we are saying is that they will lose a game along the way, and that will keep them out of the Big Game. If Boise State defeats Va. Tech in Landover Md, and defeats Oregon State at home, the BCS will not be able to keep them out of the NC game. Either Ohio State or Iowa will probably be their opponents. To be perfectly honest, this is really disturbing, because the Big 10 can not win Big Games. Ohio State may have found themselves in the Rose Bowl, but they played an over rated Oregon team. Now everyone knows why Bose Sate easily handled Oregon.
One of the problems we see all the prognosticators make is copying the previous year's finishes. Last year we correctly predicted that USC would lose 4 games. No one else did. This year, we are predicting a major drop off for the Big 12. Nebraska may be the best team in the conference, and they have no offense. We are also predicting that the SEC will be stronger overall, another reason why, at this point in time, we do not see 'Bama going undefeated. Ofcourse all of this can change, and probably will before the season starts in September.

Im sure your GROUP was the only GROUP to correctly predict USC 4 game loss. And i am also sure you would have something better to do than talk trash on everyone if your GROUP was getting paid to come up with all this info.......You have no record and all you do is talk shit on every thought someone has. You by NO means could ever have a "fun" thread because everytime someone has an opinion of there own you tell them your GROUP and you think it's a stupid thread or idea..........Just my thoughts after seeing countless of you and your GROUP's responses to threads....
