Re: My top 25
I love the Big Red as much as anybody, but yesterday's game against Albany was not worthy of a #2 ranking. With a healthy Michael Long and some more practice and games under their belt they may get there, but they are not there now. I have not studied the rest of your rankings carefully, but based on play to date, I'd definitely have Loyola higher.

Hard to see ranking any team above Loyola at the moment, much the less 7 of them. Even if you are an eye-tester.
Re: My top 25
I am putting loyola at 2 in my poll. I had UVA at 1 last week and since they won convincingly, tough to drop them. I do agree on eye test Loyola looks like best team so far.
Re: My top 25
The Loyola game was on yet another subscription service, so no eyes were able to see them for an eye test.rolldodge wrote: ↑Sun Feb 19, 2023 3:23 pmjoewillie78 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 19, 2023 3:01 pm 1. Virginia

But I agree Loyola didn't get enough respect in JoeWillie's ranking.

I’m a bears fan but a big D guy, like Gastineau, Salaam and Klecko a ton. Lyons isn’t as memorable for me. That era was petty roided up. Kenny OBrien was the QB for those teams right?

Re: My top 25
Yeah, Obrien was our QB and everytime we played the Giants, Taylor took his head off. Walton would call in a pass play to Obrien and he'd look over at Taylor who was right up on the line frothing like wolf about to eat its prey and he would audible to a halfback dive, and then walk over to Walton and tell him, Don't send in pass plays with that crazy dude taking my head off everytime I drop back.Farfromgeneva wrote: ↑Sun Feb 19, 2023 6:44 pmI’m a bears fan but a big D guy, like Gastineau, Salaam and Klecko a ton.

Re: My top 25
Thanks, we seem to agree on most but be prepared to get the same criticism I am getting in not ranking Loyola high enough. I know the RED did not look great but I am not going to drop them after a ROAD WIN in their initial game of the season. It's a win and that right now is good enough for me.

I think early games are a crap shoot. At the end of the day, I expect MD to be a better team than Loyola. And I expect to see Cuse and GTown in the top 10

Re: My top 25
Taylor was probably the greatest LB ever and that’s coming from a guy who worships at the ground of Singletary, Butkus and Ray Lewis. Unfortunately he didn’t learn the lesson he provides in this clip below until it ended his career prematurely.joewillie78 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 19, 2023 8:07 pmYeah, Obrien was our QB and everytime we played the Giants, Taylor took his head off.
