Ohio State is just hype, Like people hyping up Georgia last year and Big 12 hyping up TEXAS every year, I put no stock in Ohio St. -
Football season is just too far away.
Now as for the top p4p
j/k
Here is my take. I have some trouble ranking guys at the top of the p4p category who have never had the balls to step out of their comfort zone and taken on bigger stronger competition. Stepping up and going into a fight they are actually not favored to win. That is what makes men like Duran, Leonard, Armstrong, Robinson and yes even Roy Jones Jr. so specialComment

...Ohio State has basically the same team back that struggled early last year and then came together and closed with a serious run that included 6 wins out of their last 7 games(only losing a close one to Perdue that they got screwed in) and in doing so denied Michigan a national title shot. They then blew out favored Oklahoma State in their bowl game by a score of 33-7. They play Texas in like the second game of the season and we will find out about them quick. When they beat Texas bad, and the longhorns are ranked in the top 3 consistently, then the Buckeyes will get mad respect.Comment

I never liked Roy Jones, i never wanted to see him fight ,Now i feel like what was so bad about Roy, he steps up, fights great matches and dominates like nobody else, now i missed many of his good fights ,I got to see them fully but it was not the same, See this ,Roy Jones is truly a special fighter, one of a kind, now he may never be the same, Roy Jones is truly a special fighter, maybe his ego is what made me hate the man, even when i hated him, i respected him enough to put him #1 p4pOriginally posted by SantinoFootball season is just too far away.

Originally posted by SantinoSorry bro but your facts are faulty.
In their first 7 years in the Big 10 Penn ST went:
10-2
12-0
9-3
11-2
9-3
9-3
10-3
In 1994 they went undefeated and it was their weak big ten schedule and the fact that they had to play in the Rose Bowl that kept them from winning or sharing the title.
It's only in the tast few years, since 2000, that Joe has really fallen off.
...In the first few years they were tough to deal with like I said, but they have been nothing but also rans in the Big Ten ever since. Nebraska would have beaten them the year they didn't play for the national championship anyway. BTW, didn't they get a piece of that title? I'm pretty sure they did. Could be wrong.Comment

...Remember, the Buckeyes are only a couple of years removed from a National Championship team. How can you be over hyped when you have a national championship win in the last several years?Comment

You made my point again, they have a team basically that struggled early last year and they only won 6 of last 7, it should have never gone to the point where they got screwed in one their last games, if they couldnt do it last year, whats to convince anybody a not so great team is gonna come back basically ,like it was, last year, and win it all this yearOriginally posted by pbds...Ohio State has basically the same team back that struggled early last year and then came together and closed with a serious run that included 6 wins out of their last 7 games(only losing a close one to Perdue that they got screwed in) and in doing so denied Michigan a national title shot.

Like you said, it was several years back, those players are probably in the NFL or gone, another year has passed so the players from the last title to Ohio St.window of opportunity is passing, quickly, remember USC has won the past 2 championships and their best players are still theirOriginally posted by pbds...Remember, the Buckeyes are only a couple of years removed from a National Championship team.

As much as I dislike Florida they have a really good young team. I wouldnt be suprised to see Leak take a Heisman before hes gone. They would give trouble to any elite team right now. As for LSU (being a big LSU fan) Saban leaving will defintley hurt them but picking up the most hyped and best prospect QB out of High School this past year still shows that they have big potential. They always contend and also were Co National Champs with USC two years ago. Dont be surpised to see LSU do big things, they are always a top 15 team and make a serious run at big bowl games every year.
As for the Suns, To me I just see them as a more talented Dallas Mavericks. Mavs gave em hell in the playoffs and I dont think the Suns have much of a chance againest the likes of San Antonio and Miami. Once the Suns realize that you have to play good defense they will become a force but for now they are riding the Mavs train of 3 years ago.Comment

USC baby, the champ. I just wish Leinart should have turn pro. I want to see John Booty. I know Leinart was remarkable but Booty has more tools and better pro potential.
As far as the NBA go, I think the Spurs will repeat, they are very resilient. Suns and Mavs will probably rack a lot of Ws in regular season but they gonna fall again in the playoff. The Lakers will gonna make the playoff especially if Kwame Brown experiment will work out.Comment
