College (Football) Pick 'Em

I'm not saying that USC has not shown the people they deserve the love, but it will be interesting to see how they get treated when they have their first lose. I don't see them going undefeated again.

Why not?

They're not playing anyone in the preseason top-15, and who else is going to beat them? Maybe the if Texas/Ohio State winner makes it to the Rose Bowl they'll have a shot, but the Rose Bowl is pretty much a home game for USC.

I'll be very surprised if they go undefeated. Who do they have as offensive coordinator? Does Carroll draw up all plays or did Carroll and the OC do it together? My point is, it wouldn't surprise me that the players have to get used to new plays and a new coach. That's going to be very tough on them.

I'm just trying to understand how a team that went undefeated last year can slip from third to fifteenth. Yes, they lost players but USC lost 3 major coaches and is still #1. That doesn't make sense to me.

Utah went from #4 to unranked. I wouldn't complain too much.

Yeah, but Utah was a 'One-Hit Wonder' so to speak.

I'm just happy Boise State got a pre-season ranking. First time ever. Of course, if Georgia gives them a spanking in the first week, that ranking won't last very long...
