Preseason top 10 in the most up to date way too early top 25. We byke? Am I doing it right

 

[Shooter McGavin]

So dumb putting this team in the top 25 when they lost all skill position players except guys like Lofton, Lyle, and Fletcher. The defense was atrocious. Yea I know they made changes there but still. **** the position group I’m most confident in right now is the OL.

 

[RightSaidFred]

10 is way too high

 

[The canesman]

Pretty generous considering all this coming years hype.

 

[brcane1]

Isnt that what FSU was last preseason?

 

[Page305]

No higher than 20.... and that's me being generous.

They are assuming the D is better. Carson Beck should still have a top 30 offense and our skill positions WR/RB combined for 1 drafted in R7 it’s not that crazy to think the young guys can be better. I’m excluding X bc of his poor 40 he will be tough to replace. #8 is also tough but I think we will be ok still have best OL in ACC

Beat ND

 

[F-MarioCristobal]

Gonna be high (higher than justified) just because they want it that way for the ND game.

 

[L A M P]

I'll take the SEC treatment. Whatever games we blow makes said opponent look better so by end of the season, our losses are minimized and victories are overblown. Yes please.

 

[TheATLCane]

There’s a lot that hinges on the availability of Georgia transfer QB Carson Beck, who was injured in the SEC title game and may not be able to throw until after spring ball. On paper, though, Miami’s talent level will have it ready to rival Clemson in the ACC if Beck is healthy. The strong points are a terrific OL, a deep stable of RBs and a reworked defensive backfield. But the Hurricanes need to identify production at WR and have to get the most out of a young DL.

 

[JamesQuall]

They’re doing it so that our opener vs ND is a premier rivalry where “two top 10 teams” are facing off versus one another

 

[mcnaire2004]

I don't want to be top 10 until we can stay top 10

 

[SSCanes]

Setting the narrative for the overrated chant when we drop a game.

 

[WeBallinBoyz]

Most people are putting us in the 15-20 range, which is think is fair.







Marcelo is more positive post spring, but he’s also high on UF.

IF Hetherman has a Minnesota like impact on D

and

IF a true WR1 emerges to supplement an elite running game.

Then yeah

Huge ifs but not completely implausible

 

[DTP]

You’d have to assume quite a few things to put Miami at #10 but there’s very few sure things in college football. It’s going to be hard to find a bunch of teams without multiple question marks going into the season. We’re not nearly as undeserving as some people want to think.

 

[IndayArtHauz]

I will have Miami in the top 8 preseason.

 

[RozayCane]

Why are so many on the Gators ****? What am I missing.

Apart of me would love for em to be raked in top 10 before we play em tho.
