CFN’s new “Best Defenses” has to be one of the silliest rankings of the season. Can it be even the press is running out of news? 1) Miami # 1? This must be some overhaul for a team that finished 28th last year. I can only assume they’re gonna let Willie Williams use his burglary tools on the field. 2) No USC? You’re telling me their backups are so bad that they’re gonna drop from #6 last year to #17. Actually, I hope this does happen… USC in the Sun Bowl would re-energize the “smiley face” across America. 3) Tennessee # 4? I must have missed where they hired one of the Stoops brothers. Trust me, if the Vols can jump from # 45 last year to # 4 this year, every team in the country will start wearing ankle monitors. 4) Michigan # 15: This team finished 33rd last year, gave up an average of 33 ppg in their last four outings, and had their two best D players drafted. Why do they deserve all the hugs and kisses? This is the same team that stole Yale’s helmet design back in the 20’s and has never apologized. There… I’m done bitchin’.
