Welcome to the Official Redemption® Message Board!
The Big East will get no love, unless they have a former NFL coach. Cincinnati has a new head coach and new QB (Tony Pike is gone), so their omission was expected.I am surprised that the University of Washington is not on there, with a potential Heisman-candidate QB. Expect there to be more Huskies (UConn!) in the Top 25 after a few weeks of the season.
I agree with all of that except UC. Zach Collaras was better even than Tony Pike when Pike was injured. While the New coach factor didnt hurt USC much..let alone the bowl bans and lack of recruiting power due to stripped scholarships...I dont see why last years #2 has to fall completely out of the picture.
