We have to have the preseason #1 SoS, right? I cant imagine another team having a bigger preseason slate than that.

I was going to say Oregon might have a tougher schedule but they don't play Arizona State this season barring a Pac-12 Championship Game match-up. I'd say yes.

Arkansas plays #2, #5, #12, #13, #19, #20.

Not to mention good teams in Missouri (#26), Miss State (#29) and Texas Tech (#42)
I'd rather play our schedule than Arkansas' for sure.

Brett will be looking for a job shortly it seems like.

To be fair, that #17 will be a #1 by the time USC meets them. That's right, fill up the kool aid and fuuuuuuuuuuuuck Michigan!

Lol, I heard that on the radio the other day, best prank call of all time "it was either a cherry bomb or someone took a huge dump".

Ucla flood prank call Louis slungpue - YouTube
That prank was hilarious. I think they should have knew something was up when he introduced himself as Slungpue. He was actually pretty good and maybe believable until he said it could have been caused by a rather large dump, or something of that nature.

A&M may lose 5-6 games this year as they are not a top 25 type team. Ole Miss is the same ole song and dance. Looks great on paper but underachieves. Auburn is not top 5 due to their defense's glaring lack in the secondary and a few key injuries up front. Bama is not # 2 as they have several holes to fill and are going into fall camp without a starting QB. LSU is in the same boat. SCar is probably where they should be. Ga may be as well but with all their off the field issues, they could tank. Overall, the SEC teams are getting the benefit of the doubt here with where they are positioned.

I agree about the majority of what you typed but Bama is reasonable at #2. Their continued success and highly ranked classes are reason enough to keep them at the spot. Couple that with Saban's success over the past 5 years and it's unreasonable to put many teams above them.

With that said, I hope for the destruction of Alabama like the Persians hoped to destroy Greece but it won't happen without a strong force.

Don't let Rice upset us first! I want don't want to relive the failure that was 2011. I will say if we lose to UM barring an NC game appearance this season will have a certain stench of failure.

I'm nervous for the Rice game like I am for every one. I've seen ND blow enough easy wins to never overlook a team.
