I think a lot of Tech fans hope that Iowa rolls through the Big 10 this season to justify our poor bowl performance. Looking back at past bowl losses, we see a few teams using GT as a springboard for a good following season:
Some teams didn't do quite so hot following the bowl beat down of GT.
What are your thoughts on GT's preseason ranking? Too high, too low? What about the other notable team rankings?

No thoughts
on the preseason ranking, but don’t forget the Gator Bowl against the Hurricanes back in 2000. Miami went 11-1 the next year and won the Sugar Bowl, then went undefeated as National Champion the year after that.
Don't care about preseason rankings.
Though I think Iowa is gonna be STACKED next year
The college football season is so fragile. It's like a glass ball being pushed around from stadium to stadium by a rhinoceros.

I'm excited to see what Al Groh's defense will look like
So now our opponents will have to adjust to both sides of the ball when playing us. There aren’t many 3-4 defenses in college ball. If we can get a half-way decent defense we might be worthy of those preseason rankings. Otherwise I’m not so sure we are a top 25 team after losing those 4 key juniors.
Let’s hope Nesbitt works on his throwing accuracy in the offseason

Really surprised
at the respect UGA is getting with a new defensive coaching staff, very few returning starters on that side of the ball, and a new QB.

I spun around... and there I was, face-to-face with a six-year old kid. Well, I just threw my guns down and walked away. Little bastard shot me in the ass.
and also a turd
"Big Ten can have this challenge. Duke loses, we all win..."

the Venn diagram is inclusive...
uga fans are included in the sets “douchebags” and “turds”

Is that the intersection
of the subsets “douchebags” and “turds”?

I'm not.
I remember what Coach Johnson said before the UGA game last year. I am paraphrasing- “Don’t forget that they are loaded with some of the best talent in the nation and they are not going to just roll over for us.”
I would agree that they are definitely being given the benefit of the doubt in this ranking. On the other hand anybody that gets the material that they get year after year ought to get some mileage out of it.
