Go Raiders!!!
Wrong thread, I think...
Unless you are talking about Texas Tech that is....
Florida could very well win with three conference losses, the SEC is a tough conference to stay in contention in the National Championship race.
Just havin some fun before Din Din. Go Trojans
yep
And I don't think anyone else in the SEC East will be strong enough to get through their conference slate with fewer than 3 losses either.....
As College Football teams are required to have 12 games this year, the possibility of a 2 loss team getting into the BCS title game are better, but only the SEC or maybe the Big Ten can produce such a team. But I don't think that will happen this year either.
yeah...
I don't think USC will lose the Pac 10 crown this year....
but to be sure, this is THE year the PAC 10 has a chance to catch up.
I don't see Texas as the #2 team in the country.
Vince Young was 80% of their offense, and he ain't there anymore.
I expect Ohio State will kick their butt in Austin week 2.
If I'm wrong, then they're for real.
I'd love to believe it, but I won't jerk with the karma.
ASk me on September 10th :)
"Hear me now, believe me tomorrow."
yeah the CUSA West was a bit of a coin flip for me anyway.
I'll take whatever :)
I will go out on a limb and predict it ends 27-27...
It might....
LOL
Notre Dame will "win" the Big Ten by virtue of beating Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue and Penn State.
I don't think Notre Dame's defense will allow them to win every game on that schedule. 3-1 is more probabe and anything like 2-2 is a disaster to be sure, but 4-0 is a lot to ask.
That said, unless they play Iowa or Ohio State, I don't think they would be beating the 2 best teams in the conference anyway.
Notre Dame closes out the regular season with a visit to USC.
That will be interesting.
If it was in the beginning of the year, I'd give the Irish the edge due to the uncertainty of the USC Quarterback position (never know how someone will react to a real game), but by game 12, that game could have 100 points in it......
Probably the best game this year that no one will get to see (unless you're fortunate enough to have CSTV). And, of course...GO UTES!!
The Utes--MY UTES!!--will have a big say in TCU's and Boise State's fate, since we play both of them at home this year. Honestly, the real X factor among us "mid-majors" might be Boise State. Though they lose Dan Hawkins to the People's Republic of Colorado, they return something like 20 lettermen from last year's team, plus a bunch of starters--Jared Zabransky, Lee Marks, Korey Hall, among others. However, if BSU is going to even sniff BCS consideration, the game against the Utes is a MUST win. Well, all of them are must wins in a way, but that one specifically.
