4. Texas
5. Kansas State
6. Auburn (1)

I loved it when Spurrier used to give Duke one vote every year. Not because I was happy for Duke. I hate them. It was just typical Spurrier... always giving the finger to the system.

<font size="2" face="Arial, Verdana, Sans-Serif">Great.. when you count down on this poll by votes we are ranked 47th... Georgia ranked 9th with no offensive line.. go figure
 
when was the last time Nebraska started the year ranked outside the top 25? I am shocked that we recieved 9 votes. We will crack the top 25 if we win our first 2
 
Good gosh!! If we win our first two, I'll be expecting more than top 25! I'm sorry to say but we'll get drummed by Albarn. We'll stand up to the pounding for a little while but when the dam finally burst, I'm afraid it will get ugly.

I am afraid you might be right South Ga.. we honestly dont match up well in terms of the first 22... not bad, but they have two NFL calibre linebackers on D, and a stable of running backs, and a QB who is much more established than any that we have.. after the first 22, depth will be a real problem for us.. and this is where I am afraid the running game will eat us up in the second half..
