CFB Pre-Season Top 25

Kick off for the 2017 football season is just over a month away and the Dawgs start fall camp Monday, July 31.

Despite this exciting news, we're stuck in the long, final drag of summer when time seems to drip by like molasses. The light is at the end of the tunnel, but while I scour the internet for tidbits on Georgia recruiting and practice, we're mostly stuck with watching a middling Braves team searching for something resembling an identity (that's a whole five posts worth of discussion in and of itself).

While we wait to see if the Dawgs pull out a commit from Justin Fields, Matt Corral, or neither (pls God no), I have a very bias pre-season Top 25 list with notes on a few of the rankings.

1. Bama - Every position is stacked with experience. Jalen Hurts might be a little too hyped but still easily a Top 5 quarterback.
2. Florida State - Only here for the short-lived joy of a Top 2 matchup in Atlanta on Sept. 2. That's it. Don't buy into the buzz. This FSU team barely beat Michigan to end last season and still will suck at O-line. Francois is the second best quarterback in the country, though.
3. USC - Your Rose Bowl champs and the hottest team with the highest ceiling going into 2017.
4. Clemson - Yes, they lose nearly everything that won them a Natty, but they still are the defending champs and deserve a Top 4 spot.
5. Oklahoma - Baker Mayfield is clutch. This team is about all the Big 12 has going for it. That is until...
6. OK STATE - Yezzir, Pistol Pete is coming to getcha! Mike Gundy coached up these boys to 10-3 last season with a few hiccups. I like this team.
7. Penn State - Not much to say here other than most of 2016's squad returns.
8. THE 0hio State University - Didn't play in the Big 10 Championship and got shut out 31-0 to Clemson. Why is everyone so hype on this team? Oklahoma, Michigan and Penn State will eat the Buckeyes for an afternoon snack. 
9. Washington - 
10. Georgia - Led by the best quarterback in the country, Jacob Eason, these Georgia Bulldogs will shock the world this season with an 11-1 record and narrow SEC Championship loss to Bama, setting them up nicely for a playoff run in 2018 and the Dawgs' third Natty.
11. Michigan
12. Louisville
13. LSU - Coach O. feedin' them boyz lots of gumbo.
14. Miami
15. Wisconsin
16. Stanford
17. Florida
18. NC State
19. Kansas State
20. West Virginia
21. Washington State
22. Tennessee
23. Utah
24. Texas
25. Vanderbilt - Watch. They're going to terrorize the SEC this year.

In case you didn't notice, Auburn is not on this list. Because they suck.
