Preseason rankings are a bunch of junk as proven every year. If we could win the NC everytime we are picked #1 we would have to build another trophy building. I do think though it is great to be mentioned every year with the best teams in the nation. I remember it was not that long ago when we down and it felt horrible going into the season. My first thought is of Fulmer and Tenn. and we couldn't win, and LSU and Arkansas told us if we would be in a bowl or not. Shreveport was prevalent in my mind every year. This is the only good I see in preseason rankings because I think they hurt these kids a lot more than they help them. The have been glamoured in high school and they think they deserve up at the next level and they see all these rankins and it just ruins them. JMO! RTR!
