The college football season kicks off this Thursday so I want to quickly throw out the top five predictions by D2B.
My top five at the end of the season will be:
#1 South Carolina – No LSU and they get Auburn and Florida at home. Tough road stretch of games 7-9 where they go to Mississippi St, Tennessee and Arkansas, but they come through it.
#2 Nebraska – Huskers bring Big 12 swagger to the Big 10 and they don’t play anyone without a dress until @ Wisconsin 10/1. Ohio St, Spartans and Iowa to finish season, but all at home. Good schedule and QB experience will get them into the title game.
#3 Oregon – After opening against LSU with a win the Ducks have a pretty easy schedule considering USC will be at home. At Stanford November 12th is the game that will make or break their season.
#4 Oklahoma – At Florida State week 2, @ Baylor week 10 and @ Stillwater week 12 along with a neutral clash with Texas makes this year’s Sooners squad a bit vulnerable. If they make it out of the 1st 11 games look for the Oklahoma State game to dictate which BCS bowl they play in.
#5 Virginia Tech – The Hokies have 1 team in the top 25 on their schedule and that team (Miami) is in investigation hell. Not really much in their way except @ Georgia Tech week 10. Beamer really has a chance this year.
