Texas should be ranked at 12 or something. They'll be good, but losing a couple games for sure.

I think a win over OSU in the 2nd game of the year can help the confidence, if that happens who knows what might happen the rest of the tear.

Awesome sig.

I think UT is a little overrated, but USC is REALLY overrated, IMO. I also think LSU deserves to be ranked higher.

If we're talking overrated, look no further than your preseason no. 1 ranked team -- BlowU.

Oh my you are so clever!

While OSU will be good. I think they are a little overrated only because they have to replace 9 defensive starters. Other than that, I expect big things from their offense.

[mookie2001]

who would win if usc played texas in week 1?

[Brutalis]

Well I'm glad we didn't break the top 25. There's room to sneak up on teams.

We have a top 15 OLine in the nation, top 10 backfield... our defense is the question right now. Sam Olajubutu at LB will be an All American. Rated a 94 on NCAA07 I believe. We're still so young it's scary that if Houston Nutt stops acting like his last name we could potentially be looking at a January game in 08.

Laughable

Ted Ginn is the most overrated WR ever. He got all the hype last year, but Santonio Holmes was the guy that held the passing game together. He's fast, but he is not a top 5 WR. Dwayne Jarret is better by a long shot.

well USC is pretty high on this list and texas a&m is not ranked. interesting....they are both my teams and i think it will play out like this....

1. a&m surprises and cracks top 20, playing very similar to last years t.u. game since they are running a different offense than with mcneal. defense improves but the ball control offense eases the pain...

2. usc plays in the national championship game...not sure if they win it though...

...before i get hell for these two being "my teams" keep in mind i attended both schools. and yes, i cannot believe the longhorns beat me twice....and the rose bowl was a fluke.
