Bill Connelly deserves a vacation after writing 3,000 words about every college football team this offseason. But now Bill has ranked all of those teams, No. 1 through No. 128. We might as well not even play the season.
Are Ohio State, Alabama, Oregon, Baylor, and Georgia (!) the country’s 5 best?
This is your wake-up call. Have a great day in college football!

The SEC and Pac-12 take up 11 of the top 16 spots, with the Big 12 and Big Ten represented in there. More surprising: The ACC doesn’t appear until Florida State at No. 17.
He ain't here to play Hokie. Cardale Jones might be Ohio State's best weapon against Virginia Tech's defense. J.T. Barrett struggled against Tech's 46 front last season, but Cardale's arm strength could open it up like a soda can.
What will they do with all that Big Ten punting? Nebraska wide receiver and uber-returner DeMornay Pierson-El will miss at least six weeks with a foot injury.
Georgia Southern will be without starting quarterback Kevin Ellison against West Virginia and WMU, but all is not lost.
If Auburn wins, the Alabama senate might declare it a 10th national championship. Ohio State might have won the on-field national championship last season, but Alabama's going for a six-peat where it counts: recruiting rankings. Can anyone knock the Crimson Tide off its recruiting perch?
Things you never thought you’d hear. Texas has a problem recruiting Texas.
Country’s No. 2 wide receiver, Tyler Vaughns, picks USC.
Dr. Bo didn’t prescribe a mood enhancer. Ole Miss takes the crown as 2014’s most volatile team to finish in the top 25.
The answer is the SEC. The answer is always the SEC. EDSBS asks where we could see the most wild overreaction to a first-week result and reaches the only logical conclusions: Alabama and Auburn.
Context always matters. Wednesday’s Twitter debate came courtesy of a chart of the most college football arrests over the last five years, by a reporter from California. Washington State came in first, which seemed bad until we found out that the arrests were for sneaking into bars and running away from fighting women.
“And he smells bad, too!” UCLA coach Jim Mora ripped freshman quarterback Josh Rosen.
Starting tight end Will Ferrell. The presumptive starting tight end for USC will now sit out the campaign to focus on his grades. The Trojans are left with JUCO transfers, converted linemen and freshmen in his absence.
