Each contender has a reason for me to pause about picking them. It's early in the summer and I can't weigh out my top 10 yet for the first Blog Poll. <BR/><BR/>I love the Irish, so we have to do some sort of wager on the Penn State game.The College Gamehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02630617504300865359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15131402.post-1148486357075839782006-05-24T11:59:00.000-04:002006-05-24T11:59:00.000-04:00I'll tell you what I think the problem is dude, th...I'll tell you what I think the problem is dude, there isn't that one knockout team in college football like there was the last three years with the USC's and Oklahoma's and even last year with Texas. <BR/><BR/>So in all honesty, I think the Irish are a "safe" bet for tops in the polls. A "safe" pick too because it generates hype, people love college football when ND is better, I know even as a diehard PSU guy, I love it when ND is good. It just seems like all is right with the world. <BR/><BR/>That said, I don't think they are overrated at all. Few teams have the combination of an explosive running back, Heisman QB, and stud receiver like ND does. Sure there are holes in the defense and maybe O-line too, but look at it this way, every team is rebuilding this year. <BR/><BR/>It comes down to the trap game of UCLA and I think by the time they play USC, the Trojans will mirror that 02 USC team where they caught fire late and dominated everyone, but if Brady's Heisman is at stake on National TV in that game, he will light them up. <BR/><BR/>I'm to the point with ND where I only really thought they would lose one game last year and that was to Ohio State. Weis is bringing that Patriots type aura and confidence to them where you just can't doubt them.EThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07199180535375745581noreply@blogger.com
