If I had to rank a top 15 right now broken up into tiers it would be:

Tier 1

1. UCLA
2. Stanford
3. Duke

Tier 2

4. North Carolina
5. South Carolina

Tier 3

6. Texas
7. Rutgers
8. Virginia
9. Texas A&M
10. Florida
11. West Virginia
12. Penn State
13. Notre Dame
14. Cal
15. Florida State

I think Florida and Virginia should be in your Tier 2. Not too many West Coast teams can hang with the top ACC and SEC schools, except UCLA and Stanford. Texas over WVU doesn't mean anything to me. WVU(Tier 4) barely beat Princeton and aren't the same team as last year.

I am not that impressed with any of the ACC schools outside of the top 5 (Duke, UNC, UVA, FSU, ND) and that is 9 schools. I would put the California PAC 12 schools against them any day of the week and will volunteer the Bruins to play the extra game. UCLA is better than Duke. Stanford is better than North Carolina. $C is better than Florida St. and Cal vs Norte Dame would be a toss up. UCLA already beat Virginia.

Regarding the SEC the only serious teams are South Carolina, Florida and Texas A&M. UDUB already beat Florida and to be quite honest the other two are good but would be even money or worse against Cal and $C. Tennessee is a mirage that will be exposed by any top 15 team. South Carolina has got to be the most overrated team in the country. I don't rate them as a top 10 team yet they are sitting at #3

Don't sleep on the West sir. I say the PAC 12 gets 7 teams in. The 4 California schools, the two mountain schools and one other between Wazzu, UDub and Arizona.

Three of the last 6 National titles have been won by PAC 12 teams. The top 3 recruiting classes are PAC 12 schools. I'm feeling pretty confident that a PAC 12 school is going to win it this year. Good luck to your players.
