1. Georgia
I think Missouri is better than half of those teams in the top ten. They are surely better than Notre Dame
Michigan are the defending champs 🏆. Michigan most definitely should still be rank #1
Miami’s fortunes (or lack of) will SOLELY depend on Cristobal. He hasn’t proven to be a great game-day coach to this point and I have major questions about him
You’re right. He should hire the old UF coach Mullins to handle development and game time. He could coach but not recruit.
Third's a charm. It is our year. The U.
@@carlosgarcia8770 Are you referring to the 3rd decade?
@@MrDubyadee1 he’s referring to third disappointing season in a row lol. Miami hype never fails to make me laugh
I will put 1,000 on michigan not finishing top 7
Go NOLES The Climb Trust Coach Norvell 🔥🏈🏆
Gotta get passed ND first ☘️
Trust Norvell until they play the Dawgs. UGA had players out as well no excuses.
If their players continue to be so selfish then they will be nothing.
Miami is gonna kick your ass
Mark are you serious? Of course Miami's moto is wait till next year. God bless your optimism.
Terrific work! Thanks JD!
I would advise everyone to focus on what teams have and not what they have lost. For example, LSU lost Daniels, a huge blow, but they still have a strong QB in Nussmeier
Thanks JD one of the coolest content creators
JD, love that you have USC ranked outside your top 12! Looking forward to you eating crow this year! Fight On! Angel USC'78
18 is not a horrible place to rank SC now, if we beat LSU and Michigan, top 10 would be a given, if not who knows? The places not putting USC in the top 25 are very misguided.
Miami has 3 WRs returning with 800+ yards. A rb with over 1000 coming and Cam Ward pitching.
🥱
Stop it with the Miami crap
Coaching is garbage
Yah but it’s Miami…
Miami shmiami same o same o
So ready for football!
Two part question -
1) Better season (stats) - Dillion "the Hawaiian" Gabriel OR 'Iron" Will Howard ?
2) Better record - Oregon OR OSU ?
Oregon 100%
History says ohio state beats Oregon, Oregon beat osu once? And lost like 5 games? It's something like that, 1-5.
Best show on turf🎉
How miami gets ranked so high every year despite not having won anything in two decades is beyond me
The team is staked. It was really good last year but they were missing a QB. They added the best QB in the portal and then added players throughout the whole team. Most of the impact guys from last year returned. They are also loaded in the trenches.
@@michaellewis2098 Thank you for speaking truth, Miami in 3 games were 2-4 plays away from being 10-2 but Tyler Van Dyke held them back.
As a Miami fan I agree with you, but it's the brand, we pay the price in Basketball when our team is good, but North Carolina, Duke and other blue bloods get ranked ahead of us for the same reason... But on point, we are winning the offseason again, and I love Mario because he is a cane, but he has not proven himself to be a good game manager, recruiting is only one piece of coaching... With that being said... GO CANES!!!
Schedule is a cake walk and they’ve overspent to make sure they win this year
They are like the cowboys. 😅😅😅
The Transfer Portal takes a little pressure off the need for always having a top High School class each year. Evaluations of more game ready players to fill holes caused injury or missed HS evals is a great recovery tool for teams with a good roster and Program.
Jd man you got miami at 14? Your crazy dawg
When does the official top 25 come out?
The LSU '06 team was the 1st in college history to have 1st round picks at QB and 2 WRs in the same draft. The LSU '07 team went on to win the CBSNCG with an offense that increased its ppg numbers and a defense that actually gave up more ppg than '06 defense.
Point being do not count out the tigers because of what they lost to the draft.
I hear what what you're saying but I think your years are off. Gaytors won that game, completely destroyed the suckeyes.
@@Travis-vl7sg Gators won the national title for the '06 season Championship game was played Jan '07. LSU also put a but whippin on the suckeyes.
@@user-xp6qd4sk1j you right.
@@user-xp6qd4sk1j you right 👍. My bad.
2007 was a year notorious/famous for the chaos surrounding everyone being mid. No one was elite, gatekeeping a BCS spot.
Any poll that has Miami top 15 is bs. Give them a schedule of the projected worst 8 sec teams and Miami may win 4.
Don’t conflate “what was” with “what will be.” Miami has the talent to compete with and beat a lot of teams. Now the coaching could be another story
@@willcosper1696 Exactly, We've always had talent its just the coaching most of the time but that's what they are afraid of Miami getting their shit together.
Miami will be in the playoff this year
You crack me up. Miami won't get close to the playoffs. You're not getting in with a 7 or 8 win season.
@@larryhildebrand2585 Keep hating, we will have a 10 win season
FSU is not making a playoff this year that’s a 9-3 team ceiling
Keep drinking & telling yourself that 😊
@NOLES-wm3ly I'm completely sober and I agree with Roger. I think you may be drinking that bud light...
@@perrywebb5833 Miller & Crown Apple. We’re still winning the ACC which gets us in😮
@@NOLES-wm3lyclemson will challenge for acc champ not a lock fsu wins acc
@NOLES-wm3ly I knew it was tranny piss of some sort. Only way fsu wins acc is bc its a complete trash conference. At acc's peak yall will have 2 teams in top 25 but good luck
Thanks Josh lol I just wished you would have put Ohio state 1st, so it would have been fuel for Kirby, we haven't always been at our best at 1st but ty for your break down
Go vols 🧡🤍
I’ll take the 11th spot for my NOLES, only way is up. I don’t like the feeling of being top 5 off the jump.
What about rutgers bro?
Miami at 14 come tf on jd
Facts. Way lower
And now OREGON? No way dude. Debor owns them.
Winning is winning. But to win by 3 points the last two matches vs Oregon isn't exactly "owning". Plus Washington played down to their opponents all season last year. Struggling in games they should have dominated. Debor can be Bamas sloppy seconds though, I'm fine with that.
Dabor didn't own oregon in the slightest 🤣 yes he beat oregon 3 times but by 3 points each time. That's just him getting lucky and oregon playing sloppy
@@josephagee9323 7-0 vs Lincoln Riley, Lanning, and Sarc. I guess those was accidents. Dude wins and then you just put him at freaking Bama.
Florida plays 8 of those teams but you still think they are going to have a good season?
Yes
That swamp is full of tears
@@newkidontheblockism 3-9 or 4-8 isn’t good
When will people stop putting the U in the top 15? Why not wait until they do something?
Broooooooooo.....won what 10 games past 2 years😂😂
I’m so tired of people putting Miami and Texas A&M in their top 25. It’s like the media hypes them up every year only for them to be trash.
What should the preseason rankings be based on? Nobody has played a game. With the transfer portal, a lot of teams have new faces. I could agree with your Miami comment, but if you actually look at the rosters and not the names on the jerseys, you would/should think differently.
So, much of these rankings is perception. For example, FSU fans troll Miami and Cristobal going 11-13 in his initial 2 years at Miami. However, FSU was 8-13 in Norvell's initial 2 years at FSU. FSU won 10 games after 4 consecutive losing seasons. They lost 80% of their offensive production from 2023, yet are being ranked #11 here. Why?
The entire FSU 2024 WR room had 57 catches in 2023. including the production of transfers at their previous school. How could this team be ranked at # 11 based on anything except perception and projection? This is perception based on a 2023 season in which 80% of that offense is gone for 2024. So, this is a projection because there aren't a lot of experienced playmakers.
Contrast FSU to Miami. Miami returns the #1 and #2 returning WRs in the ACC. They were #2 and #4 in 2023. Jacolby George had the same number of catches (57) as the entire FSU 2024 WR room, including the production of their transfers at their previous schools. Miami arguably has the best QB in the ACC, throwing to the most experienced and productive WR room in the ACC, with the #1 or #2 RB in the ACC in 2023 1st team All PAC-12 RB Damion Martinez.
Miami has the best OL in the ACC. In 2023, Miami beat Clemson and lost to FSU on the road by 7 with the same True Freshman QB in both games. Now, they have an upgrade at QB1 in Cam Ward, other proven productive transfers, and players from back to back top 10 recruiting classes.
Miami has proven experience at every position and nearly all their 2-deep.
So, put aside your hatred for Miami and compare their roster of proven players compared to their rivals. They are actually ranked lower than their roster suggests, while FSU is elevated based on previous seasons, not their current roster. This is a fact. #83 in returning production. Most of their transfers don't have a lot of college production, yet JD is spitting the "projection" of talent on the FSU roster.
Wait, I thought he said he said these rankings weren't based on projection?
@drakodakid1096 Did you say that when FSU had 4 straight losing seasons before winning 10 games in Mike Norvell's 3rd year? A coach on the brink of being fired after winning only 8 games in his initial 2 years at FSU.
@@ItsdemontimeDarius their alumni have major bank
The best team's on paper don't always win,it's going to be interesting ,some of these team's on here are totally overhyped, should be a helluva season
Hotty Damn Toddy Ole Miss By Damn...🎉🎉🎉
It's very interesting how some of you are just counting Louisville out. That's ok, we're used to being counted out. Louisville as a whole, will be a better offense and better defense as well. And I hope the naysayers fuel them.. Go Cards!!!
Can't wait for ole miss. Roll Tide Roll ❤❤
How you gonna put ol miss over bama? They haven't beat bama in 8 years. That makes no sense. You gotta prove yourself first. Look what uga and bama did to them last year.
I might be wrong but did you miss nc state ….
This ranking system looks more dumb now. Their should not be a football ranking until after the first game. More accurate and more fare to teams and fans.
Every year "ND could be a top 10 team if the only could play good, but they don't. So I'll rank them in the top 10."
I’m Just Fired Up 🔥 to watch My Hurricanes Dominate Let’s Goooooooooo The 🙌🏾
Another disappointing season. Get use to it 😂😂
Potential looking into the face of Mario C = dissapointment
Ahhhhhhh You Suckas and Bustas can’t Stand That I know it Wishing on My Cannes Downfall I See But y’all gotta watch us Dominate Every Team in front of us. Last year we didn’t have The Quarterback that we have now Totally different Team. Apart from Last Year Expect for Cam Ward to lead us To The ACC Championship facts . The 🙌🏾😎
Lol, another dumb dumb, FFS, where ya"ll come from? 🙄
Very fair about penn state. Maybe a bit low. We will see
Deboer is a top 3 coach in college football fact!!!
How Michigan reacts to losing JJ and Blake Corum will be interesting.
Yes, but their defense is going to be nasty.
They will not have signs so they are cooked
But still beat Ohio @@mr.ohiostate2544
Salty ass Buckeye fans still making excuses. Your coach cried like a baby and got Harbaugh suspended and still lost in Ann Arbor. Face it bud, OSU is loaded with overrated 5 star talent with overrated coaches.
No Auburn? Wow no respect for Hugh freeze. Auburn has the best WR room in the country. Top ten recruiting class. A Great defensive backfield. Much improved offense and Defensive line. Decent RB room. The only Question is still QB. Not saying Auburn will win a championship this year. Next year YES. But come on Auburn can make the 12 team final. Their schedule favors it.
I get it, FSU lost a lot of their team last year. But they should still be at least top 10.
FSU still flying under the radar 😁
Yeah. They are still recovering from the beating during bowl season. 😅
Yeah embarrassing!
They lost a lot of players that ranking was a gift
Nebraska top 25 bb
GO BUCKS
What?? Where’s Colorado??? Prime gonna really be pissed off…
What a slap in the face to the Florida Gators ‼️.....A lot of those teams can't compete with them, what a joke....
Miami is the new Texas!
Brian Kelly will NOT win a national championship at LSU….
Facts. It's not that lsu doesn't have the talent. He's just not that guy.
Alabama doesn't play Ole Miss or Texas in the regular season. So something is not meshing. For Ole Miss and Texas to be ranked ahead of Alabama your saying Alabama will lose 3 games. Most are predicting Georgia and Tennessee and maybe Oklahoma will beat Alabama. Come on man. There is no way on this earth that is going to happen.
No one is beating the Bulldogs this year, they will regret the injuries they had last year that cost them the Bama game one day as they could have won 4 in a row... Don't know how you want to put the four best teams in the playoffs and keep that Georgia team out last year... With that being said... GO CANES!!!
Jordan Travis is not comparable to DJ lol Travis could get out of 80% of should of been sacks
yeah, he was amazing. i hope he lands in a good spot and has a pro career
@@followthemoneyhoneyHe got drafted to the Jets!
why do you not have U.W even in your top 25
GBR!
OU still getting disrespected. Definitely deserve to be ranked higher than 17. You don't get why people don't talk about OU's potential? Yet you rank them 17. 100% disrespect @ 17th
NOOOO WAY is Utah, a top 10 team! I would also flip flop Oregon to #3 & Texas #4.
🔵THE CANES SHOULD BE RANK #215!🔴

I'm fairly biased but this would be my very early predictions
Teams without proven QBs should not be in the top ten! ND, Michigan etc.
By the end of the year Jeremiah smith will have over 650 receiving yards and…….. 5 td
Love the show and good talk but totally disagree with the top 3 teams. To hyped up by the media but Georgia will not be #1 and Ohio state will not be #2 Nor Texas #3. Those teams might not be shy of your prediction but wont be. Come on 24 Season.
Love to see all the Miami hate. Yes, they need to finally prove it on the field, but with all the talent they have compiled over the past 2 years, it would be malpractice not to have them ranked in the preseason top 15
If Miami doesn’t have any injuries, look out
Alabama lower than 3 is wild
Get used to it, it's only going to get worse and worse in the next few years for bama. Nick ain't walking back through that door
Backside blitz gonna break Nico in half.
Nebraska got a qb they goog this year
and Note Damein your top 25
This is Miami's year. both Canes and Fins.
This guy doesn't know how conference affiliation and win loss records work
Ole miss ain’t a top ten team not a chance and how is Miami even ranked when they haven’t won anything in a decade or two and ND goin down hill even with the spring games in the book but I think your rankings gonna have a lot of change after week one of the season
Oregon rated too high as a new B1G team.
No way Louisville isn’t a top 25 team, given what they have coming back plus their up grades in the portal….
Who cares, it's Louisville! Seriously 🙄!
I think Bama and Ole Miss should be swapped. They have not beat Bama since 2015 and that took some wild plays for that to happen. I know each team is different each year, but having Ole Miss over Bama seems wild to me.
That's because you're thinking past, not present.
@@rickrhoden1presently ole miss still isn't better than bama 😂
@@HotLikePu94 An unproven assumption to make yourself feel better😎
@@rickrhoden1 just like what you're doing 😎 maybe ole miss would score more than 10 points on bama this year? too bad they don't play.
They’ll play in the playoffs. If bama makes it in. That dynasty is over, it’s down hill from here
Miami at 14 now but they’re about to take a good old fashioned butt whooping in week 1
No way , they beat Florida easy
Oklahoma makes the playoffs. That defense is number 1
Wow, someone loves Oklahoma's defense??
Oh right, I forgot why I stopped listening to this channel. The P4 bias is so painful he's trying to claim the ACC is somehow a worthy conference.
Iowa defense gonna be lethal
Drinkwitz 's coaching or lack there of may show up big time. 😊
Good morning. I just love how all these people keep on looking over Clemson 🐅. You mean to tell me there are 15 over teams in college football 🏈 is better than them? You sound crazy. But you will be looking dumb in the end.
Florida will be ranked after they beat Miami 💯
Miami is gonna run over the gators. Go Canes! 🙌
@@tommysalvatierra6361 lmao 🤣 dream on
@@user-db9nn6zk7n Miami has a better overall team than UF. Better OL and DL. And definitely a better QB
You’re tripping
How can you possibly rank FSU out of the top 10? The ESPN HATE has rubbed off on everyone!!!
They lost their qb and wr and rb and defense didn't look good georgia put 60 on em weak acc 😂
What are the odds. Mario Cristobal leaves Oregon and 2 years later they are top 4
Are you okay?
They not top 4 they not even top 10
Some people just haten oregon is a top 4 team, they will again have one of the best offenses in the country. They have a top 10 defense. Someone must be pretty upset there team is not on the level of oregon
@@josephagee9323 Oregon?
@@josephagee9323 yeah Oregon is top 10 sorry i thought you guys was talking about Miami

I'm not gonna lie, 2024 road schedule is a beast. But all u Dawg haters, stay tuned GOD WILLING, TO 2025 Home schedule. #KEEPTHATSAMEENERGY #GODAWGS
love or hate, you guys are a force to be recconed with
You guys have to stop ignoring the fact that some of these top 10 team built their rosters in an unacceptable manner. If you guys don't comment on this fact, you are condoning it. Where is the same fervor you had when Michigan was under scrutiny? You guys are two faced. We are starting off a new era in college football making all the same mistakes the NCAA made that is getting them pushed aside. Trading one corrupt organization for another. "Golden Age" of College Football my eye!
I really like Kyle winningham just not when he plays Oregon lol go duckies
Hmmm...isn't lil ohio in the midst of a two-game losing streak, including the 2024 lame loss to Mizzou? Meanwhile the skunk bears are on a 15-game winning , 3 straigt B10 championships, 3 straight CFP appearances, and this year UM Will beat lil o for the 4th straight season. Oh yeah, I think dem skunks won a Natty this year, too.
There’s no way notre dame is ranked where they are this the same team that got blown out by Louisville last year
It’s in fact not the same team
ND and Michigan make no sense neither have a QB!
@brettk9316 Notre dame has a qb
Husker fans are gonna be happy this year. If Georgia would’ve started this guy that’s all that needs to be said.
Bros you don't have to upload talking-head material at 60p. Come on now..
Fsu gonna falll flat on their face this year 😂. The most talent he had was last year come on now…
Miami will get smoked by virginia tech
I think you're pulling your pickle to much
Comment section full of Miami haters . We get hate like the Yankees and we ain’t win ishh in 2 decades.😂
Oregon should be the best team in the Big 10. Oregon's roster is underrated. They're better than Ohio State on the offensive side of the ball.
Hahahahahahahaha hahahahahaha you must have fell and bumped your head .
@@user-yb6kr8qd1f Oregon has the best QB in the Big 10 by quite a bit, the best WR duo in the Big 10, the best OL in the Big 10, and a RB room as good as anyone's. Oregon is basically last year's LSU offense and Alabama's defense
@@jstrig I beg to differ because you can’t dismiss being in the top 3 year in and year out. The cupboards are never bare at Ohio state , and don’t forget what we did to your ducks as underdog s with Marcus Marriott’s at the helm and that team was a monster. Ohio state adjusted and it looked like men among boys as the game wore on, then Ezekiel Elliott put a 200+ on that super fast Oregon defense and then our defense just started beating h you guys up at will. Oregon had no shot . When you run the ball down a teams throat and they can’t stop it, game set match . What I’m saying is our teams have history and you guys have played us in bowl games coming in highly rated and the Buckeyes were the real deal . I’m excited for this season because it’s going to be made for tv on almost all of the games with this new team setup
@@user-yb6kr8qd1f In their last matchup, Oregon went to Ohio State and beat them in the Shoe. Oregon's roster is as good or better than Ohio State's. Ohio State might have the better defense, but Oregon has the better offense. This is not the Oregon you remember. Like I said, Oregon is last year's LSU offense and Alabama's defense. Oregon could very well beat Ohio State in the trenches
@@jstrig hahahahaha you don’t just come to the shoe and walk out with a victory. So if we beat Oregon you have to support and sing Ohio stated praises for being the favorite yo win it all , lol 😂
J D you're great, really knowledgeable and premiere commentary when it comes to talking ball. How in the hell do you have Ole Miss ranked above BAMA?? Smh
I know that's hard on you Bama fans. Hotty Toddy!
Ole Miss shouldn’t be ranked above Bama….and they won’t be.
Lmao, The same Miami that went 3-5 in the “bad” ACC last year? At 14? WOW!!!
Gasp it's like recruiting and the transfer portal matter.
@@jpDragna mouth breathers don’t know
I really like Dembrock. I think he is a great OC but he is not the one that developed Daniels, Malik or BTJ. You say that over and over and I am not saying he didn’t play a part but there is much more to it.
Ok…..what is your definition of “developed”. What did Daniels do at ASU? I can concede Neighbors and “BTJ”. However, show me where Daniels was the player in his previous stop, that he was at LSU. “Flashes” NO DOUBT, potential for sure. But he didn’t put up the numbers until Denbrock got him!
@@BigMonty686 Joe Sloan was the QB coach. He is the one most responsible for developing Daniels. Denbrock was the TE coach he was responsible for developing Mason Taylor. I am not knocking Dembrock he was a great play caller and responsible for the overall offensive architecture.
Cortez Hankton was responsible for the WRs.
