If you go to the team rankings on Rivals 2012 still comes up but 2013 is in the dropdown menu. Great to see us on top by a pretty good margin. Go Blue!
2316 Points would have given us the #5 class last year. For reference last years class had 2132 points. In 2012 Alabama finished first with 2621 points.
Quick note: The team ranking formula has changed from last year's formula. Don't know how big the difference will be in the end, but it has changed.

Bama and USC will probably finish 1 and 2.
They simply do not have enough scholarships to give. They will in the end have the highest star average IMO.
Maybe, but we'll see. They can give 18 this year, and that might be 14 four stars and 4 five stars. That might still be better than our 23 member class of mostly four stars. The crazy thing about their class so far - they have 7 commits, 2 five stars and 5 four stars, but of the four star guys, none of them are even a 5.8, they are all 5.9 or above. Their lowest guy is #141 overall to Rivals - the other 6 are all top-100.
Whoa, I'm no USC fan, in fact as an actual resident of LA where I have to hear about how amazingly awesome USC is, I'm sure I dislike them more than about anyone on this board. Plus, but brother-in-law went there and it as obnoxious a USC fan as there is.
That said, I'm also able to comment on these things from an objective standpoint. And unfortunately, their class is looking pretty dope.
Talks of them adding Cravens, Hutchinson and possibly Smith. Throw in a shot at Vanderdoes and Mathis and they have a rock star class. Even if it is only 18 kids.
Great class so far..Bunch of Kids who bleed maize and blue..Hoke and the Michigan coach's are recruiting Gods..Need a strong finish to seal the deal.. I believe we had #1 class last yr and sliped a little in the end. Its Not gonna happen this yr
Although we have an awesome class on paper, there is far more to a class than a ranking or a score. We have plenty of talent, and I think a ton of it is underrated. These are the kids who will win us a championship.

Google works wonders
That's funny, Ohio's class is #7 yet most people are in agreeance they still have no class
/My first ever Ohio State childish/Mlive insult post, go me!
aggreeance- making a comeback after a 200 year absence. I am all for unusual words.
I have not been a huge fan of Rivals lately, but one thing they do that i like is only include the top 20 rated recruits from a class, thus, oversigning like Miami does every year will not help you.
If USC signs less than 20, then yeah, we can probably stay above them.
Between the time the OP was posted and now, MSU dropped one spot to #30. Also, there are a few additional B1G teams not included in the OP: Nebraska at 18, Illini at 19, and Iowa at 29.
On Yahoo's CFB main page, they also have an article on the best triple threats. Michigan's numero six. LINK
