Predict the top 25 best team ratings for NCAA '13

[wvufan97]

Hello, I've been wondering around a few sites hoping to find released info on what the ratings for schools in the upcoming game NCAA Football '13 will be. So far, I've had no luck on finding anything, so I thought I could ask some of you for your thoughts on what teams will have the BEST ratings!

[1GATOR FAN]

Florida State A+ across the board every year lol...

I don't think there really is any info on them yet except for guessing of course

Hahaha, even as a major fan, they were rated too high last year. Even with their success the season before last, they were ranked too high. I guess Alabama #1, LSU #2, Arkansas #7. As long as Ohio State is low (i.e. outside the top 25) and FSU is in the high teens, 15-17, I'm perfectly fine.

Re: Predict the top 25 best team ratings for NCAA '13

I'd say:
A+ Alabama, Oklahoma, and USC and Florida of course
A LSU, Georgia, Arkansas, Oregon, Virginia Tech, Florida State, Michigan
A- Notre Dame, Oklahoma State, Stanford, Clemson, South Carolina, Texas, Miami, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Ohio State.
B+ Michigan State, Penn State, Texas A&M, Cal, Florida, Pittsburgh, Illinois, Auburn, TCU, Boise State, Miss State, Utah, Kansas State, Baylor, North Carolina, NC State, Washington.
B Ole Miss, Georgia Tech, Boston College, Northwestern, Iowa, UCLA, Arizona State, Arizona, Oregon State, Colorado, Maryland, Virginia, Iowa State, USF, Texas Tech
B- Purdue, Kentucky, Wake Forest, UCF, Kansas, Toledo, Navy, Air Force, Cincinnati, Louisville, Syracuse
C+ Indiana, Army.... etc.... just spitballin'

EDIT: Ohio State should be a C+ on offense because 1GatorFan said they were close to last in total passing last season.

OSU outside the top 25? really man? they were ranked high on LY's games because Pryor, Herron, Posey, Adams, all were suspended and Star DE Nathan Williams missed the season (knee). If they don't win 8 games under Meyer, or finish outside the top 25 this season.... I'll be shocked. Most polls have them between 8-18.

Their only bad loss was @ Miami. All the other losses were close. They went toe to toe with Michigan on the road and were 3 overthrown passes by an 18 year old QB from beating the eventual Sugar Bowl champs. They upset an excellent Wisconsin team, lost some close games. FSU has been overrated on these games for years. They recruit top 10 classes every single year, and can't win the ACC. But yeah man, OSU sucks.

No way Michigan gets an A while Michigan State gets a B+...State's defense is better than Michigan's, and I would rate their offenses about the same

LOL your offense is not as good as Michigan's. You're living in a dream world.

Yeah they won't be ranked but their rating should be high.

I agree with every team you said, except for Pittsburgh. I'm not saying this just because i'm a WVU fan, but Pitt should be no higher than B-

FSU in the teens? They should and will be top 10. And OSU won't be unranked at the end of the year, just on this game. We will win 8-9 games next year.

You say OSU a 6-7 losing season team coming off last year gets a A

While Florida a team who beat OSU gets a B?

I smell a homer big time. OSU and Florida both should be in the B's and no higher than 15 IMO...

This. The talent level at Ohio State has become laughable lately. Look at their skill position players, they finished 3 from last in passing last year, only ahead of 2 service academies. Needless to say, Urban Meyer will get their talent level back up to par. They should be a C+ offense and B+ defense in this years game.

Re: Predict the top 25 best team ratings for NCAA '13

B+ defense.... OK. They went 6-7 with a bad offense starting a freshman QB. Interm HC, and 5 star players lost. Theres no way the O is rated lower than a B, and the defense will be an A- at least.

Yea i missed on Florida, they should be an A- based on talent. I cant believe so many of you think Ohio State should suck because of one bad turmoil filled year. They got Urban Meyer! If he could dominate in the SEC and win 2 titles, then I'm sure the 10+ win seasons will continue.

I'd like to know how OSU's talent is laughable. Thats like saying Auburn's talent was laughable after Newton and Farley left, Or Texas talent is laughable because of a bad 6-7 season. It happens. Great programs have bad years. That doesn't mean they will fall apart. Usually inexperience plays a big part in it.

Notice at the end of my post, I said I was guessing on these. This is my guess as to what we will see come July. Not like these are my personnel opinions of the teams.

When you're 125th in the country in passing and don't have a stud RB AND you lost your 2 best linemen, I think C+ is fair. They won't actually give them that rating though, it'll probably be a B-. I said that they will reload now that Meyer is there, but the last few Tressel recruiting classes weren't good and the lack of skill players has been evident for a couple years now.

[1GATOR FAN]

I never said they were bad I'm just saying its funny how some think a 6-7 who lost a bit of players will by magic turn around a be a A rated team...

They will get there but if you have OSU rated that high then Florida should to because Florida was rated a bit higher in offense and defense by seasons end am also return alot of players plus they beat the Buckeyes

I'm not sure what OSU lost of defense but if they did lose a bit then maybe a B+ is right.

UF, Offense - B-, B
Defense- A-

OSU, Offense- B-, B
Defense- B+

IMO
