Top 10 for 2007

*subject to change depending on early departures*
1. USC (two plays away from being undefeated this year. loaded)
2. Michigan (entire offense returns)
3. West Virginia (Slaton and White)
4. Texas (pending McCoy's full recovery from injury)
5. Florida (Defense, Percy Harwin and Tim Tebow)
6. LSU (I'm of the opinion that LSU is better off without alleged NFL Top Pick JaMarcus Russell)
7. Nebraska (seems ready to break through)
8. Arkansas (McFadden and Mustain)
9. Louisville (Brohm returning but Petrino & Bush leaving hurts)
10. Georgia (late season surge worth noting. Stafford will have experience)

Keep an eye on:
11. Kansas State, 12. Rutgers, 13. Virginia Tech, 14. Miami, 15. Wisconsin, 16. Boise State, TCU, Utah, Hawaii, Cal, Tennessee, Auburn, Maryland, Florida State, South Carolina, Oklahoma, Penn State, Alabama (Nick Saban), Arizona State, North Carolina (Butch Davis),

Rebuilding years:
Ohio State, Notre Dame, Boston College, LSU (kinda)

Next year should be a much more exciting year from start to finish. There's a lot of junior-dominated teams out there right now. Action this year didn't pick up until late October.

Viva Le College Football!!!
