Lindy's magazine released their top 25 for the 2010 as well as their All-Americans for the upcoming season. The usual suspects are there with Alabama still being the consensus number one, Boise State staying in the top three (two here), and the 2010 version of Ole Miss who happens to be Arkansas is at 16.
1. Alabama
2. Boise State
3. Ohio State
4. Texas
5. FLORIDA
6. Wisconsin
7. TCU
8. Virginia Tech
9. Oklahoma
10. Iowa
11. Nebraska
12. USC
13. North Carolina
14. Pittsburgh
15. Oregon
16. Arkansas
17. Georgia Tech
18. LSU
19. West Virginia
20. Miami
21. Georgia
22. Cincinnati
23. Houston
24. Penn State
25. Utah
The only ranking that stands out on the list is Houston at 23, Georgia Tech at 17, and Oregon at 15. The reason I include Oregon is because a lot of other publications or pundits have them in the top 10, which by seasons end could be the case but with the quarterback questions a top ten ranking is too high.
Now below are LIndy's All-American list where only BYU's great offensive lineman Matt Reynolds makes the list from the Mountain West.

at least utah is at 25.
the schedule sets up well for utah. at least a regional audience will see utah/pitt on sept. 2nd maybe national depending on time of game. if we beat them down really good we could be in the top twenty in no time. do you know where phil steele has us at?. my guess is maybe a little higher b/c when we did go undefeated he kinda predicted it so we are on his radar screen. he has the best preseason college football mag. out there. 268 pages (around that) and he gives the last seven years vs the spread. every fbs team gets some coverage and so do a few fcs teams.
I'm all about covering the spread and moneylines. I was building a house, I don't deserve this, deserves have nothing to do with it. Bang. "Unforgiven" I drink your milkshake. I drink it up! "There Will BE Blood". Hell is just a word, the reality is much much worse." Event Horizon". Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you're not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean, I mean plumb, mad dog mean. cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live or win. That's just the way it is. "The Outlaw Josey Wales". "And that's just what these hustlers look for. They cruise from casino to casino looking for weak dealers the way lions look for weak antelope". Ace Rothstein, The Movie "Casino" 1995.
