Good looking list as far as I'm concerned, the only teams I may take issue with come in the 4 and 5 spots for their respective conferences. In the ACC, I would have ranked Boston College 5th instead of Georgia Tech. Reggie Ball still hasn't shown that he has overcome his inconsistency, and Utah's defense (which is not exactly nationally acclaimed) made him look just bad in last year's Emerald Bowl. The Big East, in my mind, really could be up for grabs between W. Virginia and Louisville, especially if Brohm back 100% (although the backup looked nice at the end of last year). Good call with Rutgers at 3rd, I think this is a team that will stay In the Top 25 for a good part of the season with a very talented backfield. As far as the Big 10 is concerned, I have a sneaking suspicion that Purdue could be back with a vengeance after last year's implosion. Curtis Painter, while not wowing anyone number wise, is a fairly good athlete who won games at the end of last season. The defense needs major retooling, but I see them as the conference darkhorse. Big 12 wise, I personally like Iowa State’s offense when the reins go free, but Nebraska and them, and TT should fight it out for that 3rd position. While Leach’s offense certainly has proven itself, Alabama’s D last year may have exposed some weaknesses. Translation: The big splash some people are expecting into the Top 15 may not happen. I admit my ignorance with both the Pac-10 and SEC, so I’ll leave it at that, but once again a very good overall assessment. Would like to hear what you think as far as the non-BCS conferences go…
I'll add that suggestion to the queue. Takes a bit more studying than I've done so far in the offseason and a little help from a more updated Phil Steele guide than my current 2005 one :o).

Will be copying and pasting that into the right one...
