A very fair assessment, domer, thought I believe my wolves will have a difficult time with you guys on Sept 22nd. The higher ranked teams tend to struggle on the road in this series.

As a Buckeye fan I'm actually suprised to see OSU in the top 25. Everything looks except your # 9 pick. They just suck!

What, no Akron U?

I think UNLV will have a good year in 2012. Okay, I'm totally full of s-h-!-t.

**looks GOOD

I think Bama will wind up with 3 losses this season. They lost a lot of talent, and while they always have top recruiting classes, I think much like 2010, they will need a year to be championship contenders again. LSU should be better than last season though.

USC vs Bama for the title.

HOLY S-H-!-T that's really going out on a limb. Because we all know that every year in CFB whoever starts the season out at #'s 1 and 2 ALWAYS plays for it all at the end of the regular season. As a matter of fact the entire 2012 season should just be cancelled. No need to play any games at all.

Hmmm. On paper I would mostly concur. However, SC lacks depth to win it all and Alabama and LSU would have to have back to back top finishes in the SEC which is tough even for a couple of the most talented and well coached programs in the country. I think it's Georgia's year with South Carolina the possible sleeper. Also, that's a good place to start Va. Tech, but they'll almost always climb and finish higher under Beamer.

Good point with Virginia Tech. Beamer always seems to pull through for a 9 or 10 win season doesn't he?

Yes, I think the September 22nd game will be a great game just like last year. Hopefully the Irish finally pull through this year though.
