    I certainly wouldn’t consider Iowa a top 25 team — new OC or not, Kirk’s still running the show — but the coach’s poll has the Hawkeyes as the sixth best team in the B1G. That’s about right.

    Should we use this as the start of the 2025 College Football Season Thread

    I usually start the Week 0 thread the Monday before, but if folks would rather roll it up into a single effort that’s fine by me. I’m nobody’s boss here.

    2025? Are we just going to let Georgia put the pedal to the metal and burn rubber on the 2024 season without a Gap Band reference?

    Ole Miss sure getting a lot of love this offseason.

    Nice 2023 season, but four SEC wins (three against unranked teams) that could have gone either way. They're entertaining.
