Haha, we'll work our way up to the Top 5 at some point.....only to lose a BCS game. Oh well, hate that we don't play anymore. At least WVU-VT was a real rivalry unlike us and UVA.

1 of the 3. This year hasn't played out yet has it?

(Look at the above post) - SI rarely knows their shite. But it's a testament to the respect has been getting.

I'm all for it. Weaver likes to blame WVU fan behavior but we aren't innocent at all. I've seen many fights in Blacksburg when the 'EERs come into town.

To the WVU and VaTech posters:

The only one we are missing now is Clemson.

Clemson will find a way to lose 4 games this year with Yaba-DABO-Doo on the sidelines.

too bad you don't, the 2012 NC has yet to be determined, Bama did win 1 of the last 2 that SI picked and have been completed.

They are due for a Big 10 title. I think Wisconsin is very overrated....not so sure why people think Danny O'Brien is Russell Wilson. He had 1 good year when he had Torrey Smith to throw to.

That title should've happened last year

That said, I base my statement on the fact that we lost some really productive guys (cousins, most notably).

I agree that o'brien for wisky wont have the same impact, not to mention even UW lost some really good talent themselves (zieler, toon, konz, etc.)

Should be a fun season though

And got blown out 44-24 in their first game of the year against Fresno State.

Ah, the power of whipping Notre Dame in a bowl game to lead to lofty rankings the next year.

I agree, I think Michigan has a chance to be really good. Just sucks for them to open against Bama, I just dont seem them having the size to beat them. They have the speed, but SEC especially Bama, LSU, Georgia size is difficult to match.

I'm not jumping onto this USC bandwagon just yet, they have 8 weak games until they play a good opponent in Oregon.
