It's called RESPECT! When you're the ICON, it doesn't matter if you lost 9 offensive starters. Or that you lost a starting defensive end and his alternate, all three linebackers (one an All-American), a four year starter at corner (also and All-American) and a 3 yr starter at Strong Safety (National 1AA player of the Week following the Jackson State game). No matter at all when you're the ICON. You still get a pre=season ranking in the Top Ten.

Apparently someone is more impressed with our program and the talent on hand than they are with D1 washouts who transfer to SUspect programs. More impressed with us than they are with a quarterback who lead the country in defensive completions.

LIKE I KEEP SAYING...

THE ICON
AND
the other two
 
They will still be in the Top 10, watching JSU and somebody else play in B'Ham.

I don't need a white mag to tell me anything about Gram. The ball kicks off shortly. We'll see how well ALL THEM DAYUM BACKUPS will do when they azzes gotta tote the load. Oh, I forgot. They got valuable experience last year. :rolleyes:
 
OMIGOODNESSSSSSSSSSSS

I am sooooooooo proud of gSU for being ranked. If they keep up the good work, then maybe they will have the opportunity to play in the playoffs because

They dayum sure won't be in the SCG!!!!!

...and when you win the national championship, just shine that dayum trophy and bring it to DA BLUFF because yo daddy wants it to sit at its rightful home!

Good Luck gSU!!!! ;)
