Thanks for the ping! Go Big 12!
Leave it to them to get it wrong..I gotta go with OSU one but I doubt they will win it all
Notre Damn at USC to end the season at the Coliseum...I hope it's for all the marbles.
UT won the national title because Chris Simms graduated. Brown loved Simms, despite continued proof that he looked great in most games, which the Horns would have won, anyway, but froze up and made critical mistakes in big games. Vince Young may have faults as a quarterback, but he looked as relaxed in the big games as he did the small ones. Colt McCoy is the redshirt, and played 2A (schools under approximately 400 total students) in Texas. Big question if he can step up to NCAA Div 1 competition.
SoCal is an excellent school, and will continue to compete. BTW, kudos to Texas and Ohio State for once again playing each other early. Few schools are willing to risk it against a non-conference rated opponent that early in the season.
My big questions:
Which team will lead in felony convictions?
Will Oregon get penalized for unsportsmanlike uniforms?
Will Auburn continue to have a cap of one athlete per sociology instructor?
Will Southern Cal continue to be the only professional football team in Los Angeles?
What do I care? I'm a Nebraska fan.
Has Oregon gone any of the past 5-6 seasons without a uni change???
I think (Hope) Nebraska will be top 10 material this year...we'll know after the USC game...GO BIG RED!!!!
Still sticking with a ND-OSU rematch in the Fiesta Bowl?
It'd be nice to see that Big 12 title game become competitive again.
God I hate the NCAA.
However, in their projection of how the SEC East pans out, they predict Tennessee to come in 3rd BEHIND the Gators and Dawgs.
Don't these mags have proofreaders?
Polls should not be released until the 3rd week of the season, IMHO.
The whole idea of teams playing the season to compensate for preseason polls is absurd.
Someone should sell t-shirts with that slogan.
The 3rd week is a good idea. By them most of the big schools have gotten the "Southwestern Connecticut Tech" vs (Insert Big Name School) out of the way on their schedules.
Agreed. Teams can get a boost by beating a highly overrated team.
after Nov 4, Notre Dame will not be undefeated!!!
No kidding.
I don't think Oregon wore the same uniform twice last year. I didn't see all their games, but every one I saw was a different uni.
Well this last few years have given THINKING Husker fans something to chew on...it's been humbling..but we shall return!!
