Once again, I have no idea how we will do this year. I do know one thing - Alabama has a pussy schedule this year. They play A&M and LSU as their only tough ones.

I tend to be of the view that they shouldn't do any polls until after the third week of the season. So while this poll is mildly interesting, I was much more interested to learn via Coach Muschamp that woodpeckers are physically unable to be concussed. I never knew that before.

You can see the video of Muschamp discussing woodpeckers here: http://deadspin.com/woodpeckers-cant-ge ... -996097665

If you go to the very end, someone asks about being ranked 10th in the coaches pre-season poll and Muschamp hits him with a sarcastic, "And that's really important." Same reporter tries to follow up to see if Muschamp thinks the ranking is accurate and Will tells him, "I don't care." I got a good laugh out of it.
