I was thinking Mich will be 6 and Tenn 7.
Michigan has a very easy schedule so they will stay around top 5 all season.

They also place a huge emphasis on top tier SEC teams and their favorite blue bloods outside of the SEC. Regardless of all the losses to the draft for Ohio St, I think they are still considerably ahead of Michigan talent wise. They've been recruiting at an elite level for years. Michigan has really stepped up cruiting' since Harballs arrival, but other than their weak schedule, I don't get the hype surrounding the Wolverines this year.

They will probably put Oklahoma ahead of us for some crazy reason. They might put LSU in there they are getting lots of love.

Until they prove otherwise, LSU is a one trick pony on offense. Any elite team with a solid front 7 can negate Fournette, and force them to throw, which they have proven they can't do consistently in recent years.

Alternates: FSU, Mich., and Bama.
Go Tigers!

Wirh this one. Makes sense - the only other team might be mich st over Buckeyes. Don't get the Michigan crap. They will lose in Lansing. And of course ESPN will push bama and LSU

1. Bama
2. Clemson
3. Oklahoma
3. FSU
T5. LSU/Ohio State
Reasoning:
Bama didn't lose as much of their 'D' as we did; Ok is a blue blood, and while FSU is too, they couldn't (wouldn't?) place two ACC schools in 'preseason top 3'; tie at 5th as LSU & Ohio State are blue bloods - one in the sec and the other coached by Urban Meyer - this way the 'experts' bow to both their false idols....
