Iowa returns pretty much everyone of relevance and will probably be top 10-12 preseason do I'm pretty confident in saying they'll go 7-5

Losses to Oklahoma and Michigan.We'll see. scUM doesn't have a QB.
Yeah they should win em all. We tend to collapse under expectations and play better when we " suck ". It's too bad the one bad half iowa played all year was in their bowl game but it is what it is. It'll just be another year of debating their merits next year.Their schedule is set up again, no Ohio St or MSU.

All their toughest games are at home. They could be very well 7-0 going into the Wisconsin game.
sorry, but alma mater's be damned..he is a company man now
That dude is an ass puppet.But isn't?
1..Clemson
2..Bama
3..LSU
4..Stanford
5..Ole Miss
What are your thoughts? Does LSU, Stanford, and Ole Miss deserve their spots? I think Clemson and 'Bama are a "no brainer" for the top two spots. Who would you replace on that list, if any teams need replacing in your opinion.
This. Rankings earlier than about weeks 8 or 9 are asinine IMO. The early ones are based on reputation and other non performance factors.Those the same guys that lost to Texas this year? I swear every year it's the same with you guys and every year it's heart break because you do not learn.
Ole Miss loses way too much for this for that ranking.
LSU could go either way but my guess is they will win 10 games as always and miss the boat.
Stanford is replacing a 4 year starter at QB and that isn't easy.
Clemson
Alabama
Michigan - Depending on what they lose.
Baylor - They are a system now and not dependent on individual players.
Notre Dame - They lost a ton to injuries last year and get Zaire (QB) back so they will be interesting.
OKlahoma - I would put in the top 10.
Tennessee - They might actually make some real noise this year.
USC - They always recruit well and Helton will bring stability.
Houston - They were impressive don't see why they can't do it again.
LSU - Better spot for them
You can play with the order and some may not work out but that is about where I would have them. Truth is you don't know until they hit the field.
Most of the starting oline was injured this season or out of position due to tunsil. He will be hard to replace, and will be Mike Hilton and Trae Elston. As far as others Ole Miss's most talented depth is at wr and defensive line. I definitely don't think top five but will still be a solid team.Ok I'm looking at Ole Miss' depth chart from last year and it looks like:
1. On the offensive line they only return the RG (who was a freshman)
2. Lose Treadwell & Cody at receiver (both starters)
3. Lose Jaylen the RB
4. Lose just over half their defensive starters
5. Lose both Punt and Kick returners
They will be rebuilding an O-Line and trying to replace Treadwell on offense and they are going to be super young on defense it looks like.
You take Treadwell, Tunsil and the Nkemdiche brothers off the team this year and they lose to Alabama, Arkansas and probably Miss State & Auburn.
The problem is the ranked teams tend to play each other in conference play and many times there is no way to see how it shakes out. For example Miss State finished out of the top 25 and 6th in the SEC West but there are more than a few teams they would be favored over in the final top 25 if they played. Auburn pretty much dominated Memphis who was ranked during the year.This. Rankings earlier than about weeks 8 or 9 are asinine IMO. The early ones are based on reputation and other non performance factors.
Check out West End Vols analysis of pre season rankings versus where they finished. There were a lot that were in the top 25 that didn't even end up ranked. And vice versa, many unranked ended up ranked...and some pretty well.
