UW ready for title run in football?

One more really, really early 2008 top 25, this one from CBSSports.com's Dennis Dodd.

Dodd slots Wisconsin at No. 9 - the highest I've seen so far in any of these next season rankings.

His analysis of UW: "The Badgers look like the new Ohio State in the Big Ten ... if Ohio State ever slips up. Everything is in place for a national championship run. They are double-barreled at tailback (P.J. Hill, Zach Brown). Nine starters are back on defense. An underrated dual-threat quarterback, Allen Everidge, takes over. Bret Bielema is the northern version of Les Miles, 21-5 in his first two seasons (Miles was 22-4). Now all he has to do is win it all."

Dodd took a page from SI.com's Stewart Mandel, butchering Allan Evridge's first and last name. Kind of makes both of those guys lose some credibility - but then again, how much is a 2008 ranking worth now anyway?
