Pre-Season Top 25

Most people look at preseason rankings and think they are a big joke..... I am one of those people. However, I love when they come out because they are just another reminder college football is close ahead.

• As most predicted including me Oklahoma starts the poll off at #1. The sooners road to the national championship is equivalent to the road to hell. There 2nd non-conference game is @ Florida St. Then they start the big 12 with Missouri. They also have to travel to Texas and Oklahoma St. Lastly they have a middle of the season trip up game with Texas A&M. If Oklahoma stays perfect this year they could be remembered as one of the greatest teams.
• Alabama and Oregon make another top 10 preseason mark.
• LSU is starting the season by playing Oregon an they also play in an extremely talented SEC life doesn't get much tougher. Good luck les.
• Playing Oklahoma and Florida during the the non conference part of your schedule is going to be rough,but life gets much easier during the acc. With one maybe two real tough games in Clemson and Miami life will be good for the Seminoles. Fl St has the potential to win a national championship.
• Forget the rest of the season but Saturday November 12th. Oregon comes to town which is destine to be epic.
• The whole season is based on the first week @ Georgia. If the broncos lose that we all know it's game over for them. If they get passed November 12th is there date with TCU. God I love this sport.
• Two big 12 foes will be tested every week with a top heavy league. Oklahoma, Texas, and Missouri along with Texas A&M and Oklahoma St will be fighting for that Big 12 championship.
• #10 is the first Big 10 team wow. All I can say is when Nebraska comes to town October 1st Madison will be rocking.
• I love what South Carolina brings to the table. I really really like them to make some noise in the SEC.
• Tyrod Taylor will be tough to replace, so I am unsure if the same success as last year will be seen again. Frank Beamer always outs s good team on the field so it will be interesting to see what is to come this year.
• It will be interesting to see how the razorbacks perform without stud Ryan Mallett. I think at #14 they are way overrated.....just saying.
• Besides that November 12th matchup against Boise St. TCU should have an extremely easy year.
• I really don't know what to except out of Ohio St. This year will be really new no sweater vests or pre madonna quarterbacks.
• Life could not get any tougher for Michigan St. They have a real non conference test against notre shame. Then listen to there first 4 games in the Big 10, @Ohio St, V. scUM, V. Wisconsin, and @Nebraska. The Spartans also have Iowa later in the season. Good luck sparty.
• I am a little skeptical On the morals at ND, after they reinstated wr Michael Floyd. The irish play a pretty hard schedule so pressure is on BK to produce. Will this be notre dame's year? Well no
• No $Cam no problem....just kidding Auburn is in a heap of trouble football wise. I feel a big sophomore slump coming from the tigers.
• The bulldogs really intrigue me as a team. Will they perform well enough to be at the top of the SEC or will they completely stink? We shall see.
• Without Gabbert life will be tough. The tigers could be special this year and they will be tested early as their first Big 12 game is @Oklahoma.
• Texas back what?! Texas always has talent and this might be their big year 12 wins? A Big 12 crown? A BCS berth? A National Championship? I am way over my head Texas should easily finish top 4 in conference and should get 8-9 wins nothing big just yet.
• Penn St grabs my attention for this upcoming year. I really like them to surprise a few people and compete for a Big 10 crown. I the what Joe Pa brings to the table. He brings weapons on both sides of the ball, so it will be interesting to see if something comes out of it.

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

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.
