BONUS QUESTION: Who should be most embarassed that they're even part of question 5 or 6?

FSU

Probably PSU. Both WVU and TCU have one of those schedules that has one big game on it...as example, if TCU can beat Tx. Tech. they have a shot at running the table.

All of the above? I don't have a lot of faith in Ohio State...someone will pick them apart with those 8-12 yard routes against the LB corps.

It bears noting an additional game this year.

I'd say Miami, contigent on how they do against FSU. A win there...and they'll be hard to stop.

Clemson and Cal (again, contingent on one game vs UT)

Florida State and Iowa. (see WVU and TCU with Iowa)

That's a tough one. UT has a good chance of starting 1-2...skating through the next two and if they don't get mad finding themselves 3-3 mid-way through the season.

aTm- I didn't think they needed rebuilding. :hihi:

Gosh, Colorado?

UT, hands down.

With no doubt, I find myself thinking that a simply change in a position coach (Cut) isn't going to change the discipline problems engrained into that program for the last 4-5 years.

1 TCU Not sold on them in any form or fashion.

2 Bama, not just because I am from Auburn. OLine issues, new QB,and defensive losses are too much.

3 Auburn, because I am from Auburn, also great coordinators and one of the biggest factors, Coach Yox.

4 Boise State Not a whole lot of competition

5 Iowa Great job on the basics, well schooled teams win.

6 Colorado Big 12 North, no need to say more

Bonus Blue and Maize should always contend.

!. Texas
2. VT
3. Auburn
4. Boise State
5. FSU
6. Tennessee
7. FSU

Are you saying the SEC, as a whole, is tougher this year? Or, the SEC schedule Bama has is tougher?

If it's the first statement, I have to question..."Who, is tougher?"

Realistically, the team that finishes 3rd in the West could very easily have the 3rd best record in the SEC as a whole.

Remember too that the PAC 10 has added five more losses on to their teams this year, it may not seem like much but by adding that 9th conference game this year they are guaranteeing that five of their teams will have an additional loss.

I think they might rue the decision to play a 9 game conference schedule and hopefully it will be because their 5 best teams lose an additional game.
