Big Ten Expansion



Well the Big Ten has really never followed its name like right now the Big Ten has 11 teams and next year they will have 12 teams with the addition of Nebraska. There will be two Big Ten divisions consisting of 6 teams in each and resulting in a conference championship which extremely needed in the Big Ten. Don't laugh to hard to hard at the new division names and the new logo is not to hot either. I guess the Big Ten is trying to get hipper? I do not like it to say the least.

Leaders: Ohio State, Penn State, Wisconsin, Purdue, Illinois, and Indiana.
Legends: Michigan, Nebraska, Iowa, Northwestern, Michigan State, and Minnesota.

The guaranteed cross divisional rivalries start with Michigan and OSU. On top of that, Wisconsin and Minnesota, and Illinois and Northwestern preserve their annual rivalries. That leaves Penn State, Purdue, and Indiana from Leaders, and Nebraska, Iowa, and Michigan State from the Legends. Penn State will lose that terribly important Land Grant game in favor of a new rivalry with Nebraska. Meanwhile, it's a little known fact, but the Spartans and Hoosiers do have a rivalry, in which they play for the Old Brass Spittoon. That leaves the final protected rivalry as Iowa against their newly hated rival, Purdue. All things considered, I think the Big Ten did a pretty good job. Some rivalry games will no longer be an annual event. Some fans and teams travel expenditures will get much pricier. I think the Big Ten will be much more competitive in the years to come and might be the second best conference behind the SEC.

Mountain West Conference Expansion



So the Mountain West is going to lose 3 teams. First they will lose BYU next year who will become an independent Football team. Next year they also will lose Utah to the Pac 12. In two years MWC will lose TCU to the Big East. MWC will also add a couple teams first joining the conference next year will be Boise State, Fresno State, and Nevada. And in two years Hawaii will be joining the MWC. The MWC had 9 Teams this year in two years they will have 10 so an addition of one. The WAC is one defection short of becoming a complete joke conference, and Hawaii would push them past that ledge. At this point it would not surprise me at all to hear that the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs have accepted an invitation to the Sun Belt. Rating the New MWC will be hard next year it will be very competitive with TCU and Boise State playing each other so I will give it a B for next year, but in two years you lose TCU and gain Hawaii the conference will basically be a bigger WAC so I'll have to give it a D-.

MWC Teams: (Next Year)
United States Air Force Academy
Colorado State University
University of New Mexico
San Diego State University (Will leave in 2012-2013)
Texas Christian University
UNLV
University of Wyoming
Boise State University
Fresno State
University of Nevada

University of Hawaii (Will join in 2012-2013)

New Big East Conference



The Big East did not do much adding to the conference this year. Of course their basketball conference has a plentiful 17 teams and now their football conference will have 9 with the addition of TCU. TCU is coming from the MWC. They will became a football team and basketball team in the Big East. This is an amazing opportunity for TCU to make a BCS bowl every year now, because of that automatic bid now. The Big East will still be a very weak football conference, and I would not be surprised for if maybe the next 10 years TCU is in a BCS bowl possibly a National Championship. TCU will join the league in 2012-2013 NOT 2011-2012 (Next Year) Villanova is being courted to become a football member, having been in the Big East in all other sports for over 30 years. Rumors exist that the Central Florida Knights are first in line of Villanova refuses. Thus the Big East appears set to move to a 10 team league.

New Big East (9 Teams):
West Virginia, Pittsburgh, South Florida, Rutgers, Syracuse, Connecticut, Cincinnati, Louisville, and now TCU

The Old Pac 10 Turns Into The New Pac 12


The Pac-10 conference will become the Pac-12 next football season, after adding Colorado and Utah to the conference. With 12 total teams, the league will be able to play a conference championship football game, after splitting into two divisions.

The 12 Teams Will Be:
Arizona, Arizona State, California, Colorado (New Transfer from Big 12), Oregon, Oregon State, Stanford, Washington, Washington State, UCLA, Utah (New Transfer From MWC), USC

The two divisions:
North- California, Oregon, Oregon State, Stanford, Washington, Washington State
South- Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, UCLA, USC, Utah

I personally like the addition of the two teams to make a conference championship. I also like the new divisions a lot. First I like the rivals that are kept in both divisions. In the north Oregon-Oregon State, Washington-Washington State and in the south Arizona-Arizona State, UCLA-USC. The only thing I do not like is that they put Colorado and Utah, their new additions to the Pac 12, in the same division. Why? What is the purpose? Switch either Cal or Stanford with Colorado or Utah it would not make a difference. Overall I think the Pac 10 will be a quality conference still not at the top for football but not that bad. Utah will finally get a chance to see if they are Pretenders or Contenders. Should be fun.

Breaking News: Ohio State Scandal


QB Terrelle Pryor and 4 other players won't be running the Ohio State attack in the first five games of 2011.
We learned that five players many of them stars didn't know it was a no-no to sell championship rings, game gear and personal awards for cash.
The players suspended were WR Devier Posey, QB Terrelle Pryor, RB Dan Herron, Defensive Lineman Solomon Thomas, Offensive Tackle Mike Adams.
Players reportedly sold Big Ten Championship rings, Awards won from bowl games, The Pants the Buckeyes win for beating Michigan, Jerseys, Autographs, and much more memorbillia.
Players even traded Autographs for free tatoos at a local parlor. The players will not be suspended for the Sugar bowl instead they will face a five game suspension starting at the begining of next year.
It's embarrassing to the program they sold championship rings something you get once In a lifetime. The players should defiantly be suspended for the bowl game I don't care how much money it brings in. Plus these kids can go pro and not have to deal with anything and the ncaa says they'll get them in the NFL with what a $ 10,000 fine big whoop that's pocket change at that level. I think the players should be banned for the sugar bowl and next year the first 5 games. And what's even more ridocolus is that Ohio st first 5 games are all winable games and then their sixth game is against Nebraska how does that happen. I am truly disgusted at the ncaa yet again. The ncaa clearly has made me mad about this topic. And one thing Mr. Pryor you will NEVER EVER make it as a pro QB NEVER. Pryor of all the five that were caught doing this you are the one that truly disgusts me some leader you are. Ryan Mallet I hope you and your Razorbacks destory those SUCKeyes. SCREW EM'

A Possible Playoff System



^^^
Example of the Winner and Losers Bracket Pretty Cool Right (Click on Images to enlarge)
So my friend Ray Lewis, me, and Ray's dad all had little ideas to make an actually well rounded BCS Playoff system.

The System:
1. So first we will keep all those sponsored bowls so the ncaa can still make its high revenue.
2. But at the end of the year the BCS standings do not decide anything they are basically thrown out.
3. Instead we choose the top 8 teams in the country. These teams will be chosen by the Heisman Voters. There are 950 of them so they will all get a good say. The voters will write down their top 8 teams in their mind (All the teams written out/voted for must be in the top 25 so no joke team gets picked) Once all 950 voters have decided their individual Top 10s points must be distributed. So it goes like this if a team is voted first they get 10 points (Obviously the same team will probably be voted first a lot like this year in the case of Auburn) then the second place teams get 9 points each, 3rd place gets 8 points, 4th place gets 7 points, 5th place gets 6 points, 6th place gets 5 points, 7th place gets 4 points, and 8th place gets 3 points. All points for each team are added up and then put into the correct order 1-8
4. The 8 teams will then play in a playoff style setting with seeds 1-8. The 4 winners will play in the second round. The two games in the second round will be two different BCS bowls which will rotate every year. They 4 losers will play in the consolation round in two other BCS bowl games.
5. The 2 winners of the final 4 team "Winner Bracket" will play in the National Championship and depending on the teams finish the 3rd and 4th place finishers will be decided from those two teams who lost to the teams playing in the National Championship.
6. The 2 winners of the consolation bracket will play in a new BCS bowl game made up, like The ESPN bowl idk but it will have a new name making a 6th BCS bowl. Obviously the winner of the final consolation game will be the 5th place team the loser will be the 6th place team and depending on teams finish the 7th and 8th place finishers will be decided from those two teams who lost to the teams playing in the "ESPN bowl".

• This way we avoid having a stupid selection process.
• The NCAA will make more revenue with the addition to the BCS bowl and the fact that more people want a playoff system will help with ticket sales and views.
• We no longer need to worry about a computer messing up the standings when we have 950 smart voters who will vote for the top 8 and continue to vote for the heisman.

Breaking News: New Coaching Jobs

New Coaching Jobs: (First Name is Old Coach. Second Name is New Coach)

4-8 Arkansas State 37-47 Steve Roberts (84-82) Hugh Freeze (Was Offense Cord. @ Ark. St.) : Personally I do not really care about this coaching change, but I am assuming to many losing season from Mr. Roberts caused this.

4-8 Ball State 6-19 Stan Parrish (63-60) Eddie Faulkner (Interim): Ball St. has always been looked at as a joke team from the MAC, I never truly respected them, but showing their guts by firing their head coach is a start.

5-7 Colorado 19-39 Dan Hawkins (112-61) Jon Embree (Was not a College Football Coach, assistant in NFL): I am glad Colorado got rid of hawkins. Going 19-39 at Colorado is a complete joke. No bowl game this year is a major issue.

7-5 Florida 64-15 Urban Meyer (103-23) Will Muschamp (Was an assistant at many different colleges, but has not been a college football head coach): Obviously nothing was wrong with Meyer as a coach of the gators. Meyer stepped down again because of health problems. Meyer is a college football genius kind of like me :p. Personally I do not think he will return to the game sadly.

5-7 Indiana 19-30 Bill Lynch (100-97) Kevin Wilson (Was Oklahoma's Offense Cord.): Having bill lynch only make 1 bowl game in his few short years at IU was a major reason why he was fired. Also, this year Indiana won 4 non-conference games all he had to do was win 2 Big 10 games. He only won 1 game against Purdue. I think Kevin Wilson will be a great new coach within 4 or 5 years I can see Indiana going to bowl games regularly and finish in the middle of the big 10.

5-7 Kent State 29-53 Doug Martin (29-53) Darrell Hazell (Assistant at Ohio St. Never a Head Coach): Doug Martin has coached all 7 years of his career at Kent. St. Kent St. has not gone to a bowl game the last 7 years. Doug did resign after their final game against Ohio which was a win. Hopefully Kent St. can either use a wise Jerry McManus to their advantage or will they go hunting for a new head coach. I think the edition of Hazell will completely change this football team for the better having a quality play caller like him is key.

3-9 Louisiana-Lafayette 41-65 Rickey Bustle (41-65) Mark Hudspeth (66-21 former Miss. St. Assistant coach and North Alabama head coach): L.A. Laff. had a disappointing season and I think they can rebound quickly with a new staff and head coach. Bustle coached every year of his coaching career obviously it did not work.

7-5 Miami (Fla.) 28-22 Randy Shannon (28-22) Al Golden (27-34 former Temple Head Coach): Al Golden coached at temple and well it was not that great. I do not think Shannon should of been fired his offense could not click because of a terrible QB. If jacory Harris had not been his QB Shannon would still be coaching the Hurricanes. Maybe he can take over the job at Temple? Would not be a bad idea he can build a decent program there. Golden shouldn't be the head coach of a quality well known football program. Bad decision by the AD of miami.

9-4 Miami Ohio 10-15 Michael Haywood (10-15) Lance Guidry (Interim): I Feel bad for Miami Ohio. They lost their head coach to a quality Pittsburgh team at the end of the year. Haywood is a very good coach taking his 1-11 RedHawks team last year to a 9-4 Mac Champion. I wish him the best of luck in the Big east, but again I feel very bad for the Miami Ohio Students and players.

3-9 Minnesota 15-30 Tim Brewster (15-30) Jerry Kill (127-73 Former NIU coach): Brewster did take Minnesota to two bowl games in his short tenure with the gophers, but Brewster obviously did not meet expectations at Minnesota resulting in his firing during the middle of this season. Jerry kill the talented coach coming from NIU will be a huge boost to this Minnesota team. Kill is bringing his coordinators from NIU with him to Minnesota. I assume Kill thinks he can duplicate his success at Minnesota.

3-9 North Texas 6-37 Todd Dodge (6-37) Dan McCarney (56-85 former Iowa St. head coach): North Texas offered Dodge the job to be head coach because he was a very successful high school football coach leading his High School team Southlake Carroll to 4 out of 5 State Championships from 2002-2006. Dodge was fired in the middle of the season because a 1-6 start. Dan's coaching record may not seem to good but he was a very successful coach at Iowa st. leading the Cyclones to 4 bowl games in 11 Years. He also finished 1st in the north part of the Big 12 on one occasion. I think he can really improve a struggling North Texas team.

10-3 Northern Illinois 23-16 Jerry Kill (127-73) Dave Doeren (Dave has never had a Head coaching job but was a Defensive Cord. at Wisconsin for the past 4 years): The fact that Jerry Kill left after the last game and decided not to coach them in their bowl game is disrespectful. This players got you that job at Minnesota the least you could do is coach them in one last game and wait till after the season to take over a head coaching job. Personally I am no longer a Jerry Kill fan I thought what he did with this team this year was amazing, but now I have no respect for him. Personally I would not mind if he fails at Minn. he also took all of his Coordinators with him leaving NIU completly bear. Forget you Jerry Kill.

7-5 Pittsburgh 42-31 Dave Wannstedt (42-31) Michael Haywood (10-15 Former Miami Ohio Head Coach) ?: Dave was a fabolous coach and I do not understand why Pitt fired him. Dave has taken Pitt to a bowl game the last two years and now this year. Wannstedt was 7-5 this year and 26-12 in his last 3 years. WHAT WAS THE PURPOSE OF FIRING HIM. And seriously Pitt. couldn't you of gotten a better head coach than a guy who has coached 2 seasons in the Mac. I wish the best to luck to Dave and there is a truly talented coach still left out there with Dave Temple maybe you should call him up. Pittsburgh hired Michael Haywood on December 16th and fired him on January 1 after he was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence. Pitt will have to go out again looking for a new coach, possibilities Randy Shannon, Mike Leach, Rich Rod.

8-4 Temple 27-34 Al Golden (27-34) Steve Addazio (Was Floridas OC but has not had a head coaching job): Golden has been eletricfying in the last 2 years 17-8 getting to one bowl game not sure how they did not get to one this year but that is another story. But when you are coaching at Temple and get the head coaching job at Miami Fl. a very story booked team how can you pass that up. I wish him the best of luck at Miami, but now the owls need a new head coach and they found a quality one. A florida guy who had been there the last 5 years so he has seen two national championships with HIS offense.

2-10 Vanderbilt 2-10 Robbie Caldwell (2-10) James Franklin (Was the O.C. at Maryland for the past 2 years but never a head coach): Caldwell resigned after one year of coaching at Vandy. Maybe he had health or family issues or realized he wont make it in the SEC and at Vandy. Caldwell seems like a very good guy. I wish Franklin all the luck in the world as he is taking a huge job trying to pull a struggling Vandy team out of the huge hole they are in. Good luck my man.

8-4 Maryland 74-50 Ralph Friedgen (74-50) Randy Edsall (74-70 Former Connecticut head coach): Ralph was a very quality coach at Maryland, being ACC coach of the year. He started his career there with a 22-5 record with two bowls one being a BCS bowl. He was 5-2 in bowl games and went to 7 bowls in his 10 years coaching there. He was fired because he asked for a contract extension and well Maryland AD said no and also said you can chose how you want to leave the school. Obviously Ralph got fired. Personally I thought Ralph was a quality coach and didn't deserve this. This could work out well for Maryland. Sources say that Randy Edsall will be hired as the next Head football coach of Maryland today. Edsall, who in his 12 seasons led UConn from Football Bowl Subdivision infancy in 2002 to a league championship and a BCS bowl in 2010. He should be a good fit for the program and could possible get Maryland on the map again next year.

Pitt 17, Kentucky 14 (Pitt BABY)
KRAFT FIGHT HUNGER BOWL

Breaking News: Pryor Wants To Stay For Senior Season


Despite saying earlier this week that he'd like to play basketball again, Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor is committed to football and has enjoyed his almost three years with the Buckeyes.

He's liked it so much, in fact, he swears he'll be back for his senior year.


"I'm a Buckeye until I break all the records," he said during preparations for the Buckeyes' showdown on Saturday at Ohio Stadium against Penn State.

The junior said he had no intention -- at least right now -- of jumping into the NFL draft.

"I feel like I want to get my degree and finish off strong and maybe have a better season next year with no losses," he said. "I love being here and I need to develop more knowledge as a human being and not worry about money and stuff like that.

"My mom works a little bit so I can use some of her money, and the money that we get here," Pryor said, referring to his scholarship and stipends that athletes receive for expenses. "I don't really have to worry. I can suffer another year, I just want to gain more knowledge as a human being before I leave."

Good Luck Terrelle

I Am Getting Tired Of The BCS Already


So this is the third week of the BCS, and I am already sick of it. I have a lot of complaints about these new rankings. Take a look:

1 Oregon 8-0
2 Auburn 9-0
3 TCU 9-0
4 Boise State 7-0
5 Utah 8-0
6 Alabama 7-1
7 Nebraska 7-1
8 Oklahoma 7-1
9 Wisconsin 7-1
10 LSU 7-1
11 Ohio State 8-1
12 Missouri 7-1
13 Stanford 7-1
14 Michigan State 8-1
15 Arizona 7-1
16 Iowa 6-2
17 Oklahoma State 7-1
18 Arkansas 6-2
19 South Carolina 6-2
20 Mississippi State 7-2
21 Baylor 7-2
22 Virginia Tech 6-2
23 Nevada 7-1
24 Florida State 6-2
25 North Carolina State 6-2

My problems:
• Oregon beat USC SO WHAT!! They were supposed to beat USC in the first place its not a big deal.
• Auburn plays well, and wins, but they drop a spot?
• TCU beat a 1-7 UNLV team by 42. HOW DO YOU MOVE UP A SPOT WHEN YOU BEAT A 1-7 TEAM
• Boise State keeps winning but they move down? The Broncos get no love at all its sad!
• Utah is not that good. TCU beat Air Force by 31, and Utah beat them by 5!! UTAH IS GOING DOWN THIS WEEK GO HORNED FROGS.
• Like I said last week Bama is SNEAKING up in the polls i expect them to beat LSU this week and win out and play for the National Championship again
• Nebraska had a nice showing against Mizzou but anyone could of picked that game from a mile away
• Oklahoma is not all that but when them and nebraska play in the big 12 championship we will see
• Wisconsin might win the big 10 but they are sneaking up and have a very favorable season ahead
• LSU needs a huge win against Bama or they can kiss there prayers goodbye

Other Thoughts:
• Iowa was 18 last week and now there only 16? after beating M. State who was #5 who is 14. So michigan state can drop 9 places? and Iowa only goes up 2? no iowa should be were LSU is at #10

Breaking News: Dayne Crist Done For Season


Notre Dames starting QB Dayne Cris was sidelined on a knee injury. Crist was hurt in the first quarter when he was hit out of bounds after a 29-yard run and watched the second half on crutches from the sidelines. The announcers said that this certain injury may take a year to heal. Notre Dame just is not having the best week. First losing Declan Sullivan in a tragic wind accident. Please keep him and his family in you prayers. Also ND lost to tulsa today 28-27. Tulsa is the smallest FBS school. And now this. Sorry ND obviously this year you do not have the Luck of the Irish.

Breaking News:Jacory Harris Hurt




Miami's QB Jacory Harris was hit square in the chest today after a play against Virginia. It was clean hit not flag worthy. After the hit he hit the ground hard, helmet first. Jacory laid on his back for several minutes until finally getting helped off the field. The hurricanes already losing big to Virginia had to put in their third string QB, Spencer Whipple. He ended up throwing two picks and the Hurricanes had to rely on Red Shirt Freshmen, fourth string QB, Stephen Morris. Miami is losing 24-20 as we speak. There is 4 minutes left. Come on Hurricanes keep my picks perfect.

P.S. Miami's second string QB was injured before this game, and Morris is not looking bad. Miami has a future.

Breaking News: Michigan State Vs. Boise State?




Much has been made about the non-conference schedule Boise State plays, and whether it is enough to make up for its weak WAC schedule. Next season, Boise State joins the Mountain West and will automatically have a schedule upgrade in league play. But even non conference games Boise State plays get criticized. So do attempts at scheduling non conference games. Headlines were made this year when Boise State turned down the chance to play Nebraska. The Spartans recently announced a home and home series with Miami and also will play Alabama and West Virginia in future years. The Spartans have extended their rivalry series with Notre Dame as well.

Boise State and Michigan State will open the 2012 season on Friday, Aug., 31, in Spartan Stadium. Yes finally Boise State can say they played someone, but how do we know Michigan State will be good in 2012 and what about Boise State. Maybe this match up will not be as good as I hope it to be. If the exact teams that are here today played in 2012 it would be a great game. I hope both teams are athletic and strong in 2012, but again who knows. Either way Michigan State has a big test today so good luck. Go Sparty and Go Broncos.

Michigan State Future will be a real test
Boise State will really have to upgrade their scheduling of non conference games to receive any respect.

Heisman


My Hesiman Ballot:

1. Kellen Moore- He is the most reliable candidate. He is also the most consistent candidate we have I personally think he will win the heisman this year.
2. Cameron Newton- Amazing stats,but can he keep it up we will see.
3. LaMicheal James- He is only a sophomore wait till next year buddy.
4. Andrew Luck- Outstanding player, but just can't get to were Newton and Moore are.
5. Justin Blackmon- Another quality WR from Oklahoma St., but when is the last time a WR won the Heisman? exactly.

Out Looking in: Denard Robinson, Kirk Cousin (This week is huge for him), Blaine Gabbert (This week is huge for him), Matt Barkley (This week is huge for him), John Clay, and Terrelle Pryor.

In Game Analysis: #3 Boise State Vs. Louisiana Tech


With about 7 minutes in the fourth quarter left and the score

Boise St. 49
Louisiana Tech 13

I think it is safe to say there will be no upset here. Boise state did come out slow 14-7 after the first quarter. I did think this would come down to the third or fourth quarter, but I did expect Boise St. to win. With this win they move to 7-0. Just another win on the blue turf. Boise State once again proved there offense to be unstoppable and their D was decent. Louisiana Tech is a terrible team at going to be 3-5. But they did win over Utah State and Idaho which means two more guaranteed wins for Boise State. Good Luck Broncos hope you get that national championship chance. Go get Hawaii Next saturday Nov. 6th

Oh What A Season We Have


So three # 1's have gone down in a matter of 3 weeks. With the second BCS poll out I decided to go through the top 10 and rank their schedule 1-10 on hardest and predicted the rest of their games and give you my early National Championship projection:

1. Auburn 8-0 (Had a huge game against LSU. Cam newton is playing like he already won the heisman just unstoppable.)
Rest of Schedule: @ Mississippi Do not over look Ole Miss. (Toss up) Vs. Chattanooga (Win) Vs. Georgia If it was not at home it would be a toss up (Win) @ #8 Alabama Alabama is to strong at home (Lose)
Schedule Rank: 3

2. Oregon 7-0 (Has a tough schedule remain out of top 10, Good luck ducks)
Rest of Schedule: @ USC Its called pay back Oregon(Lose) Vs. Washington (Win) @ Cal. (Win) Vs. #14 Arizona (Toss up) @ Oregon St. A Must worry game for the ducks if they get past those 4 Oregon st. will trip them up (Toss up)
Schedule Rank: 2

3. Boise State 7-0 (Easy Rest of the Way)
Rest of Schedule: Vs. Hawaii (Win) @ Idaho (Win) Vs. Fresno St. (Win) @ #24 Nevada Should not be trouble but do not look past this game (Toss Up) Vs. Utah State (Win)
Schedule Rank: 10 (Easiest)

4. TCU 8-0 (3 out of last 4 games on the road)
Rest of Schedule: @ UNLV (Win) @ #8 Utah Utah is a much more talented team(Lose) Vs. San Diego St. (Win) @ New Mexico (Win)
Schedule Rank: 7

5. Michigan State 8-0 (Win this week seals fate)
Rest of Schedule: @ #18 Iowa Want the spartans to win but I think Iowa is much stronger(Toss Up) Vs. Minnesota (Win) Vs. Purdue (Win) @ Penn St. (Win)
Schedule Rank: 8

6. Missouri 7-0 (Huge win over Oklahoma, but come on they cant keep it up)
Rest of Schedule: @ #14 Nebraska No way they pull it off on the road, at home yes (Lose) Vs. Kansas St. Dont overlook them had a bad game against Baylor (Toss Up) @ Iowa State Dont look now but they beat Texas (Toss Up) Vs. Kansas (Win)
Schedule Rank: 6

7. Alabama 7-1 (Quietly sneaking up BCS standings but hell of a schedule left)
Rest of Schedule: @ #12 LSU (Win) Vs # 21 Mississippi St. (Win) Vs. Georgia St. (Win) Vs. #1 Auburn (Win)
Schedule Rank: 1 (Hardest)

8. Utah 7-0 (Could slip during these last few weeks, but could stay unbeatean)
Rest of Schedule: @ Air Force (Toss Up) Vs. #4 TCU (Win) @ ND (Toss Up) @ San Diego St (Win) Vs. BYU (Win)
Schedule Rank: 4

9. Oklahoma 6-1 (Lost to missouri last week never thought they were all that anyways.)
Rest of Schedule: Vs. Colorado (Win) @ Texas A&M (Win) Vs. Texas Tech (Win) @ #25 Baylor Oklahoma needs to win this to have a chance at the big 12 ship (Toss Up) @ #17 Oklahoma St. Won't matter if they dont beat Baylor (Lose)
Schedule Rank: 5

10. Wisconsin 7-1 (They Will win out easily)
Rest of Schedule: @ Purdue (Win) Vs. Indiana (Win) @ Michigan toughest game left on the schedule (Win) Vs. NorthWestern (Win)
Schedule Rank: 9

National Championship Prediction: Alabama Vs. Michigan St.- Alabama wins Big
I would Say boise but the polls show them no respect. I think Alabama will win out and shut the critics up and michigan st. just needs to get by Iowa and they will win out.
