Click here for linkRivals.com finished its preseason 1-120 countdown last week, and we had nine of the same top-10 teams as the major preseason polls.
We don't think as highly of Oklahoma State as the media voters in The Associated Press or the coaches who vote in the USA Today poll. The main reason: The Cowboys' defense looks extremely shaky.
Still, every team -- even the ones in the top 10 -- has some issues to worry about. Thus, today we'll look at the potential fatal flaw for each team in our preseason top 10.
1. OKLAHOMA
The issue: Run defense
The buzz: OU's run defense was rather mediocre last season. The Sooners allowed 148.9 yards per game, which ranked 58th in the nation. That was the worst performance against the run in coach Bob Stoops' OU tenure; the previous low mark had been 125.2 yards per game in 1999, his first season as coach.
2. ALABAMA
The issue: Quarterback
The buzz: Five of the past nine national titlists have had a first-year starting quarterback, including the Tide in 2009. This Tide team sure looks a lot like that Tide team -- strong defense, with new starters at tailback and quarterback.
