Rusty’s Top 15
9/1/11
Expect major shake-ups in a few weeks once we’ve actually seen some teams perform on the field – having said that, here’s our 1st crack at a Top 15:
1. Alabama – Nick Saban looking for another National Championship 2. Oklahoma – should be the class of the Big 12 3. Florida State – I really think this is the year they can officially say “we’re back!” 4. Oregon – last year’s runner-up returns plenty 5. LSU – what a defense 6. Stanford – as long as Andrew Luck stays healthy, anyway 7. Virginia Tech – that’s a National Championship schedule they’ve got 8. Boise State – will drop out of sight if they lose to the Dogs 9. Nebraska – might win the Big 10 in their inaugural year 10. South Carolina – can Spurrier win 2 straight SEC east titles? 11. Oklahoma State 12. Wisconsin 13. Texas A&M 14. Southern Cal 15. West Virginia
Also, Georgia has the talent to be ranked, but can they learn to win again? They’ll be in the top 10 if they start 2-0. Let’s not think about what will happen if they’re 0-2.
Georgia Tech will be better than the experts think; best case scenario 10-2, worst 7-5.
