Oregon #4 without jeremiah masoli and a questionable defense? i dont buy it. As long as Nebraska's defense could slow down lamichael james, which i think it could, NU would beat them.
@bamathebest95 texas deserves a top 10 ranking. maybe not as high as 5, but they have so much talent that they dont usually suffer dropoffs, they just reload. but colt mccoy, jordan shipley, and earl thomas will be very hard to replace, even for the longhorns.
No way in hell Wisconsin will be better then the Iowa Hawkeyes. These rankings are garbage. Iowa should be in the Top 5. They barley lost anyone and beat GT in the Orange Bowl.
Tcu should be up there and I don't think oregon should be that high look at all the trouble they have had in the off season and I don't think nebraska should be that high
@hornjhrn what are you talking about nebraska does deserve to be up there because there offense is going to be amazing and the blackshirts are gonna tear people apart
@TheDevilboy32 as a husker fan, i want to temper your expectations. first, heck no the offense wont be amazing. effective? probably enough so to take some pressure off the blackshirts. amazing? no way. we have plenty of raw talent on that side of the ball but for some reason ted gilmore cant seem to develop receivers. i think he puts too much emphasis on blocking. yes, they need to be good blockers, but not offensive linemen. the only WR big enough to block that well is niles paul.
@TheDevilboy32 however, the blackshirts should still tear people apart. the increased depth should help make up for the loss of Big Suh. The secondary is loaded and should be right up there with the best secondaries in the nation, such as TCU and Texas. we need a legit run stuffer to develop though (most likely candidate: terrence moore).
@hornjhrn I agree with you, nebraska shouldnt be that high. I think they should start out about 10. They need to prove they can play some offense if they want a higher ranking. Suh's heisman performance was marred by a horrible offensive performance. By the way, as a husker fan, I must admit the refs made the right call, as heartbreaking as it was, to put a second back on the clock. congrats on that win and i cant wait to see the horns in lincoln next year!
Don't even try that shit with me you dumb shitbag. Utah destroyed Bama in the 08 sugar bowl. That alone should be enough proof for bastards like you. And the rest of the MWC is legit too. They went 4-1 in all their bowl games with the only loss being TCU's. So stfu.
I just don't see TCU living up to the hype two years in a row. I feel there's gonna be some sort of let down (Plus, if I had made a top 25 list. they would easily be anywhere from 14-11.)
@cougarbart Please tell me why two non-BCS league teams should be ranked #1 and #2? When they beat worthy opponents, then they can get consideration. Boise state could do that with a big win against VT. Idk about TCU.
I know why people would think Wisconsin could be ranked ahead of Iowa, and I thank you for actually giving your reasoning. Most people don't even give an explanation and there's still plenty of people who think Iowa shouldn't be there...because it's Iowa.
Also sorry for all the double posts, didn't mean to, my computer was acting slow when I posted and wasn't sure if they went through.
My thing is, and I'll say up front I'm an Iowa fan, I don't see what other people see in Wisconsin...same thing with Michigan State last year.
Wisconsin has a lot returning so everyone expects them to be better and compete with Ohio State for the Big Ten title. They aren't better than Iowa though. I haven't seen anything to make me worried that Wisconsin will surpass Iowa, plus Wisconsin has to go to Iowa.
@TimOaks I understand what you mean. I figured I'd give Wisconsin a high ranking because all last year they got like no respect and I feel that with the leaque mvp and possibly best offensive line in the country they SHOULD be able to ATLEAST make it to a decent bowl game. I was battling between Iowa and Wisconsin for that spot and what made Wisky win the spot was the number of starters that Iowa lost to the draft and the number of starters coming back for Wisconsin.
IOWA owns anybody on this list

@TimOaks And from what i seen, everyone had Iowa out of the top 10 and some had them as low as 17, which i found ridiculous.
