BSU.....Top 5 or not.

Again, this goes to the issue of preseason rankings.  While I am one who has great respect for BSU's program and what they've accomplished over such a short period of time, it's frustrating to see them ranked in the top 5 in just about every preseason poll out there.  Now, this doesn't mean I feal the same about other teams deserving their preseason ranking either....it simply goes to the issue of not knowing how good these teams are going to fair.  As pointed out the idea behind this blog is CFB's legitimacy, now, and in the future.  IMO polls should not be released until the 4th or 5th wk at least, so there is some idea as to whether a team deserves the ranking they are being 'gifted' at this point.  Your thoughts.

About Pull Rank
This is about where college football will be years from now. Will we still be watching a beauty pageant and deciding who the "sexiest" teams in America are? Will we still be ranking teams at the beginning of the year, or take a few weeks to evaluate who really deserves to be there? College football is facing some serious issues with legitamcy, and it can't continue to hide behind the large pocket-books and bank accounts of a few men who care nothing about the student athlete. The NCAA needs to get control over it's most heralded sport and run the money changers from the temple.
