The hasu25: The power ranking's as hasuprotoss sees it Week 1.
Well, let's see how I rank the teams compared to those evil sports writers and coaches who are completely incapable of watching every single game:
1. Georgia- To hell with 'em. Unfortunately the most talented team in the nation, they won't stay here long.
2. Southern Cal- Well, at least they beat a BCS team. Granted, it might easily be the worst BCS team in the country, but whatever. Will not be surprised if they drop one or two in Pac10 play.
3. Ohio State- If Beanie's out, they are probably not that great. And Pryor really didn't look that impressive. He made the wrong read but blew by the FCS DE. Don't expect that to work in the Big 10.
4. Missouri- If they actually played a sucky team like that, they probably wouldn't be here. I hope their defense improves, or they won't stick around for long...
5. LSU- Couldn't find really anybody else to stick here. They did look good against Appalachian State though.
6. Oklahoma- Bradford is a beast, let's see if they can survive their nemesis Texas and the much talked about Texas Tech.
7. Florida- Ok, Tebow. Whatever.
8. West Virginia- Or Virgina if your a Pitt fan... but I digress... I don't think they are as good as last year, but an easy conference should help them out. Let's see how they fare against ECU.
9. Auburn- New offensive style. I wonder how they'll fare in the thick of things.
10. Fresno State- Just because they have balls. Massive balls. They actually have a tough out of conference schedule. Wisconsin, (at) UCLA, (at) Toledo, none of those are cakewalks. Not to mention I'm pretty sure their toughest conference games are on the road. If they run the table, they are going to be VERY highly ranked.
11. Texas Tech- 17 points in quarter to Eastern Washington has me worried, but their offense should be well oiled with Harrell.
12. Wisconsin- At Fresno next week. If they win they jump in my rankings, easily.
13. California- Winning a tough out of conference game early has its rewards, no?
14. UCLA- Just a little bit ahead of California. Great game on Thursday, Craft showed some really big guts hanging in there with 4 picks in the first half and leading some of those drives late in the game in real impressive style.
15. Texas- Not really all that high on these guys.
16. Penn State- Actually dependable QB play from a Jay Paterno coached QB? NOWAI! Let's see if that continues against Oregon State.
17. Alabama- I'm still not that impressed with Clemson. However, holding them to 0 yards rushing will work.
18. Utah- The second best non-BCS team in my book. BYU is going to be a test for them, but if they get by it they might be able to crash the party. I just wish they had a slightly more difficult out-of-conference schedule (look at Fresno!), but they did win their "tough" game against Michigan.
19. Arizona State- I swear, it feels like Carpenter has been the QB of this team since I was born. A test next week against Stanford and a big test coming soon against Georgia.
20. BYU- A good team with a terrible schedule.
21. Oregon- Didn't look great, but whatever.
22. South Florida- Cupcake conference plus cupcake schedule yields cupcake ranking.
23. Eastern Carolina- Good luck against WVU. PROVE THAT C-USA ISN'T COMPLETE CRAP!
24. Wake Forest- Ok, Wake gets a near tie for difficulty with USC. Actually, Baylor may be worse. But whatever, Wake Forest might actually be capable of doing something.
25. Georgia Tech- We're undefeated, yo ^_^!
Edit: If you have an argument for moving someone, tell me why. If your points are good enough then I will move things around. And any Florida fan who thinks I should move them up... Hawaii is pure garbage. As in, the garbage of garbage.
Haha why does everyone hate Florida so much?? There a good team and they recruit strong every year. Yes Hawaii wasn't much, but good teams are supposed to blow away crappy teams, it's just what they do. And as far as Mizzou go, they shouldn't be ranked higher than LSU or Oklahoma, there offense is still beastly but there D fence is a joke, they allowed 42 points against Illinois who should be a worse team than they were last year (we miss you Rashard Mendenhall).
