I stopped reading when I hit Texas in the top 15.....the one thing they have going for them is a pretty weak B12 but Herman is still a question mark IMO.
They do get Kansas at home this year. So they have that going for them at least.

They have Top 5.

Alabama
USC
Ohio State
Oklahoma
Clemson

By the time of the last preseason poll comes out, the Top 3 will all be schools with established QB's, and the top 10 will be heavy with them.

Alabama
USC
Oklahoma
Clemson
Penn State
Ohio State
Florida State
Michigan
Louisville
Oklahoma State

I think Washington will be better then Michigan and Clemson.

Also, not sold on USC's coaching staff either. I think because they have crazy amounts of talent that they'll be good, but I don't know if they can make top 2 with that staff.

Well, it's the first year in like five that USC fans aren't frustrated with the head coach with on and off the field bullshit. After getting that horrendous Sept out of the way ,Helton out coached Peterson and held his own against Franklin in the Rose Bowl in his two major tests. He's got a Ferrari and all he has to do is not crash it and unlike Kiffarkisian he doesn't have an ego. Right now I'd say he's looking good. Obviously it's going to help a ton to have Darnold. That kid is going to be amazing,.

Both need to find a QB . Clemson has to fill some big shoes but the rest of the team should help. Michigan needs someone new or significant improvement at that position or they will be in the same situation this year as they were last season.

What's your point? I don't think they'll stink, but I don't see them reaching the top.

Welp, with this prediction from you, USC is pretty much guaranteed to win the NC. :dhd:

In all seriousness though, I don't know if this is the staff to return us to the top or not. What I do know is that we finally have a Head Coach who looks, acts and talks like a real football coach.

The way they turned things around after that terrible start seems to indicate that they have some idea as to what they are doing.

I think it was very similar to his second year...although to his point, Harbs didn't reach the top 2 this year, so maybe he knows what he is talking about.
