Whoops, edited for accuracy.

I have a hard time giving credit to anyone who ranks Miami's stadium number ten.

Hey no pardon necessary boss, none of it is gospel and everyone's obviously biased. The lists didn't even compare the same thing, hence Miami's shitbox at 10 (based on non-stadium concerns purely). If I made the list, I'd put Autzen higher on both . . . look at the home/road splits for that team over the years, and considering how bad some of the teams really were, it's astounding. And no one would argue against A&M's inclusion on any of these lists, I wouldn't think.
As a total hijack, what's so bad about Kiper's draft recommendations? I think that if you look at them as a whole, he's pretty solid at breaking down tools and predicting a player's draft ranking, which is really all you can do (as performance doesn't always follow tools) with accuracy. He pisses me off b/c he's a jackmove that kisses certain schools on the ass (see: Miami above), but I can't really argue with his 'talents' or whatever.
