2006 Preseason Polls (official thread)
The preseason polls will soon be upon us and it would be nice to keep these in one thread.

What I like is that neither Michigan nor Notre Dame are in the top five.

Exactly, though scUM is a lot less suprising than ND. ND will be there when the real polls come out...not so sure about scUM. I think some of the media types are beginning to pick up on Carr's ineptitude.

Shows a lot of respect for Ohio State when you can replace more than half of your starters and still be ranked #1.
I would rather be between 4-7 in pre-season polls. The only poll that matters is the one in 2007.

Not for sure at all. I can see us being outside the top 10 if the voters want to focus on the D. (which they only do when we lose 9 starters....not when we have the best D in the country). |

wow... not sure who i would put above us as i am no expert on other teams, but #1 seems a tad high for a team with so many unanswered questions. im not going to argue though  . |
