HuskerJen Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 What makes this one "real?" If you'll notice I've made one little adjustment to the top 5... 1. NebraskaThe Cornhuskers are replacing a lot of production on offense, mainly at quarterback. But tailbacks Roy Helu Jr. and Quentin Castille and new quarterback Zac Lee's running will be enough. Defensively Nebraska is skilled, fast and talented. September 19th at Virginia Tech could be one of the best games on the entire season. Two manageable conference road games at Missouri and Kansas, However Texas Tech and Oklahoma visit Lincoln. If the Huskers start strong and start believing in themselves, they could make BCS noise. 2. Florida Two words, Tim Tebow. The Gators return the greatest player in college football history and the fastest defense in America. They have an SEC schedule that sets up nicely. At LSU on October 10th will be a test. But anything less than another BCS Championship will be a shocker. The Gators are loaded. 3. Oklahoma State The Cowboys return quarterback Zac Robinson, tailback Kendall Hunter and receiver Dez Bryant. Defensively they will be vastly improved. A win over Georgia early will set in motion a memorable season for “The Man” Mike Gundy. Yes you are reading this correctly. It’s an Oklahoma school, but a different one. With Georgia, Texas Tech and Texas all at home this could be a year they won’t soon forget in Stillwater. 4. Texas Quarterback Colt McCoy is on a mission. The talented and vocal quarterback needs a ground game to take some of the pressure off him and receivers Jordan Shipley and Malcolm Williams. True freshmen running back Chris Whaley must make an impact. Texas verses Oklahoma State at Stillwater October 30th will be a war with the winner looking good down the stretch. 5. Southern Cal The Trojans will be breaking in a new quarterback and they have to replace eight starters on defense including linebackers Brian Cushing, Rey Maualuga and Clay Matthews. At Ohio State September 12th is early enough that if they take a loss they could win out and be sniffing around for a title chance at season's end. Now it's real. Two words, Tim Tebow. The Gators return the greatest player in college football history and the fastest defense in America. Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Jen, Sunshine pumper of the world. No question. But I must admire your comments about Tebow. If things go as they most likely will this year, he will be the best college football player of all time by results. Respect. I am truly impressed. Quote Link to comment
General Blackshirt Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Tim Tebow is a joke. Just like this poll. Quote Link to comment

If things go as they most likely will this year, he will be the best circumcisor of young boys in Southeast Asia of all time by results. Respect. I am truly impressed. Fixed it Quote Link to comment

admo Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Where you finish a season is where you should start the following season. But that would be too easy, make too much sense. If you get knocked out you deserve to get knocked out. If you keep winning, so beit. Quote Link to comment
HuskerJosh Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 USC and LSU will be starting freshmen QBs. At least Lee has SOME post-HS experience. Quote Link to comment
AllTheGoodNamesAreTaken Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Off topic, but where did they find all of those old logos? And the Nebraska logo looked like it was handdrawn in MS paint. Quote Link to comment

hskrfan4life Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I don't like the preseason polls.... Polls should come out around the middle of the conference schedule, when you know what teams are like. And North Carolina Being that high? wow. Quote Link to comment
