How bout FSU or Clemson? I know I'm taking Bama in all 3 of those games even if Bama didn't look as good in game 1


Actually, at this moment, those would be interesting matchups. Bama's OL was flat out bad. As a result, the entire offense was very anemic. Take away an amazing kickoff return, a punt return, and a pick 6 and the game with VT is a lot different.

Until their OL proves they can perform better than they did on Saturday (which I think they will) a matchup featuring Bama-FSU or Bama-Clemson on neutral field would be might interesting.

I still don't think I'm taking them in a pick-em today. I want FSU and Clemson to be good, so we can see some semblance of order return to the CFB universe. When FSU/Miami/Clemson are good, along with OSU/Michigan/ND, and the west coast does its part, it makes CFB just so much stronger across the board

1. Clemson - Big win against a quality opponent. I don't see an argument that anyone has looked more impressive in week 1.

2. LSU - Offense looks much improved against a solid TCU defense

3. Bama - Struggled on offense, but we'll find out soon enough where we stand against A&M

4. FSU - Easily dismantled Pitt, can't wait to see them play Clemson in October

5. Louisville - They've probably peaked in my rankings because they don't play anybody all season and everyone else will move past them with quality wins. That being said Bridgewater looked amazing in week 1.

On the waiting list: Oregon (no reward for dismantling Nichol State), Oklahoma (looked great and should be a good season), South Carolina (they can break the top 5 with a win over UGA)
