I sincerely don't put any stock in preseason polls. They are normally worthless. We'll see how this season shakes out, but only Bama and UGA have talent advantages over us.

Coaching advantages, I guess that one is TBD

When was the last time we were out of the top 25 after game 1?

I never watch the Paul Finebaum show but he was just on sportscenter talking about the polls.
He laughed like a little girl when they announced LSU at #25 and then said he was surprised we were even ranked.
Hate that guy so much. God I hope we shock the world this year...

Well, we are dangerously close to being there in a few weeks. O loses to Miami and I'm concerned the wheels may come off pretty fast.

Bama's highest ranked OOC opponent got a vote!

You would think Joe's seat would be getting warm if that happens.

A lot is going to depend on how much O actually lets Ensminger work his offense. Steve doesn't seem like the type that would put up with that for too long.

The longer Alleva is employed by LSU, the more I think he has dirt on someone above him. I know we joked about this with JJ and Miles, but damn -- how else can you defend Alleva?

I'm kind of surprised to see Texas that high.

Nowhere to go but up!

Disclaimer: Nowhere to go but up in this poll specifically. We can still drop completely out of this poll and things can actually get dramatically worse.
