USATODAY.com - Breaking down the Top 25 teams (http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/football/2006-08-03-top-25-capsules_x.htm)

looks reasonable.

notre dame is going to be tough. i think texas might be ranked too high. lost alot off of last years squad

Notre Dame has a tough schedule, however they are fortunate enough to play Penn State, Michigan, Purdue, Stanford and UCLA at home. USC and Michigan State away. Ohio State has both Penn State and Michigan at home, and doesn't play Notre Dame. This could be #1 vs. #2.
