You see thats the thing though. I don't think RB will be a problem. Obviously our RBs will never be as good as Reggie and Lendale, but many people forget about Chauncy Washington. Chauncy Washignton was a freshman with Reggie and Lendate. Infact, he split time with those two. He got just as much reps as them. However, someone forgot to tell him that he had to go to school. He's in the same mold as Lendale, except more powerful. Can you imagine that?
Michael Coleman is a good runningback as well. Hershal Dennis was the starting RB before he decided to sexually assault some girl. Desmond Reed is shifty as well. All of those kids were 4 and 5 star recruits coming out of HS as well.
I've never seen Booty play QB, but I had a chance to watch Sanchez play alot, since he played down here. This kid is really savvy and smart. Probably not as much skillz as Booty supposedly, but this should be a good battle.
As far as the rest of the nation. I think its too early to say. However, honestly I really don't think Texas will win the NC next year. Even with Vince Young back. Texas will learn from SC this year that EVERYONE will be gunning for them. Sure many teams came hard after Texas this year. But trust me, it is MUCh different than when you are the top dog. The whole nation will want UT to go down now, just the way they wanted SC, and Miami to go down. But who knows. Vince Young sure did prove alot in that game.
I really don't know much about Ohio States defense. How much they are losing, but if everythign is in tack with OSU, then to me they are the favorites. Even WITH Vince Young.
Out of the ACC I like Va Tech, but only if Vick doesn't pull any stupid bullshit like he did this past year.
