PHIL STEELE'S PROJECTED PRESEASON AP TOP 10
#8 Florida St - The Seminoles were a darkhorse pick for the National Title last year but an injury to QB Manuel saw the Noles drop to 2-3 at one point in the season. FSU would respond to win 7 of its last 8 games including wins over Florida and Notre Dame in the bowl to cap off the season and this year they return 15 starters including QB Manuel and defensive stars DL Jenkins and DB Reid. FSU looks to also bring in one of the best frosh classes in the country and should clearly be the favorites in the ACC.

IMO, as in 2011
everyone behind Bama & LSU are unknowns; USC deserves to be top 3. Everyone else is questions.
Championship!
Michigan has a tough-er schedule this year
their 2012 conference schedule is still weak. But most importantly, Michigan overachieved immensely in 2011—they had the #1 combined O & D Fumble Recovery percentage in the country, which is purely luck and won’t be duplicated. Not to mention that they lose some key (all american, all conference) pieces on the OL & DL. So even though their conference schedule is still weak, they won’t duplicate their luck and they lose key personnel, so they won’t finish #7.
Championship!
I would agree w/ 8-12 seems about right and USC being top 3. I think UGA will handle their schedule and be top 10, whether deserving or not w/ avoiding the harder teams from the west.
What team does everyone think will surprise next year, good and bad?

It better be us
We’ve been harping on 2012 for at least 3 years. For me its BCS game and in the running for a title shot or bust. Especially if we get WVU off the schedule. I we have more than one loss heading into the Florida game (at home) I WILL BE DISSAPOINT.
