Sounds about right. USC drops from all of the talent loss, but not too much. WVU gets some respect, although them like USC are the class of a poor conference. Personally I think Penn State should be a bit higher.

 

VT and Miami will be top 15 or even top 10 once the season starts.. it's always like this every year

Yeah, sounds about right.

 

Yeah... not really overhyped, but they always start out amazing...

 

Damn right Notre Dame is #1, that's the way I like it.

 

I think these rankings are pretty good. I hope Iowa finishes higher than 11, though.

 

Watch out for Boston College. They are a big ACC sleeper in my opinon. They should be able to take Clemson in week 2 but then will have some tough games @ NC State, vs Va Tech, and @ Miami (last game of the year, could be to determine ACC champ). I like Matt Ryan and I believe he is ready for a breakout year. They have two very good junior RB's in Whitworth and Callender and a good and experienced O-Line, particually at OG where they have Josh Beekman (2nd-3rd Round Prospect right now) and the huge James Marten (6-8). The defense is experienced and good. I do question though there very weak WR core and the Defensive Line is new and raw and will have a hard time adjusting without Mathias Kiwanuka. Just, watch out for the Golden Eagles, they may surprise a lot of people.
