NOT MISS THE POINT: NationalChamps.net
is proud to once again present the annual
Early Bird College Football Breakdown (15th
season). For those of you concerned with
the rankings and the fact this #16 team
is better than that #9 team, then YOU ARE
MISSING THE POINT! Our presentation was
created as nothing more than a rough guide
for listing whether key players return or
depart as evident in our depth chart formatting.
So many of the selections are evidently
interchangeable and will adjust continuously
until next season arrives.
So
sit back, unbutton those tight pants from
your holiday dinners and leftovers, and
take this preview for what it's worth. We
think you will gain much more by realizing
that the rankings and their explicit accuracy
are not the primary goal. This is not about
predicting where these teams will finish
by season's end, a flaw in logic many assume
- it is about where each deserves to be
ranked as the season starts.
However, in the 15th season of compiling
this Early Bird Preview, NationalChamps.net
has eerily predicted a very close result
to what the official preseason polls will
show come August. Returning starters and
key losses are not hard to figure out. Unpredictable
at this point, though, is just how early
NFL departures and bowl game results tend
to change these rankings more than any other
aspect. We rank what we know and take the
rest in stride.
