Hypothetical Bowl Results

Let us postulate that all the favorites of the five major bowls win their games, and there are no blow outs.

LSU beats OSU; USC over IL (shocking!); OK downs WVU; UGA drills HI; VT beats KU.

What will the final rankings be?
Probable: 1)LSU 2)USC 3)OK 4)VT 5)GA

And 2008's preseason rankings will be about like this:
1)USC 2)OK 3)LSU 4)GA 5)UF

Can't argue with that.

I think the 2008 preseason rankings will be:

1.) USC - John David Booty is back and the media swings from Peter Carrol, et al's balls.

2.) Georgia - Even though it's appropriate for us to be ranked here, they rank us this high while holding their noses and hoping we slip up early, as a consolation for what happened with the BCS this year.

3.) Florida - The collective voice of the cult of Superman (read ESPN, NBC, ABC, etc) believes that with a defense and a healthy shoulder against Georgia, Florida is a national title contender.

4.) Kansas - Tim Reesing is back and another great season is sure to follow.

5.) West Virginia - Pat White's back.

6.) Missouri - Chase Daniel is back.

7.) The Ohio State University, simply because the commandments of preseason polls stipulate they must be ranked in the top 10.

8. Notre Lame--same reason as OSU.

9. Michigan--Because Les Miles didn't become the head coach.

Unfortunately, they will not ever EVER put us that high. Here's the ranking:

1) Florida
2) USC
3) Oklahoma
4) Georgia
5) West Virginia


That's a lock. Revisit it come August. You'll see I'm right.
