Another College Football Preseason Top 25

Never mind our assumptions that a sophomore would never win the Heisman Trophy or that the Blackshirt Nebraska defense wouldn’t give up 70 points to the Jayhawks of all teams. 

 

No, we know everything there is about college football and that’s all there is to it. 

 

With all that being said, take a look at my Top 25, which is undoubtedly, unequivocally better than your favorite Top 25 poll:

 

 

1.  Georgia Bulldogs

 

After months and months of deliberating over why some other team deserved to be No. 1, I finally gave in and joined virtually every major media source which has the ‘Dawgs as the No. 1 team in the land. 

 

While much of the spotlight will be on redshirt sophomore Knowshon Moreno—who has been compared to former Georgiagreat Herschel Walker—the onus will be on the performance of junior quarterback Matthew Stafford, a highly touted NFL prospect who has been inconsistent at times for the ‘Dawgs. 

 

Georgia’s schedule is difficult, but right now this looks like the most talented team in the land.

 

 

2.  Ohio State Buckeyes

 

"Everyone’s Favorite Juggernaut Which Inexplicably Gets Blown out by SEC Teams in National Championship Games" is back hoping that the third time’s the charm after losing consecutive title games to Florida and LSU the last two years. 

 

For their sake, the Buckeyes haven’t had a team that looks this strong in a good while.  Chris “Beanie” Wells is the next dominant running back to come out of Columbus and seniors Malcolm Jenkins and James Laurinaitis anchor a strong, experienced Buckeye defense. 

 

The only thing standing in their way from a third title game is USC—and themselves.

 

 

3.  Florida Gators
