College Football is back!
August 31st, 2008 in Uncategorized. 4 Comments
Really excited about the football season getting started back up. As most of you know, I am a huge Oklahoma Sooners fan, having grown up in the state and being a proud alum. I am also a Georgia Bulldogs fan, so with both teams in the top five this year, it could be the year we see Oklahoma and Georgia in the National Championship game. But the road is going to be tough for both teams, and several other teams looked good after the opening weekend. Here are my predictions for conference champions and also the national championship game:
Big 12: Oklahoma (over Missouri)
SEC: Georgia (over LSU)
Pac 10: USC
Big Ten: Ohio State
ACC: Clemson (over Virginia Tech) BORING!!!!!
Big East: West Virginia
Conference USA: East Carolina (over Tulsa)
National Championship Game: Oklahoma vs. USC.
Winner: of course Oklahoma! the key- offensive and defensive lines- arguably the best in the country on both sides of the ball. Whoever controls the line of scrimmage controls the game.
Your predictions?

I’m blindly predicting that Miami will return to national prominence this year, although the weakness of the ACC will keep them out of the title game.
Title game – USC v. Florida

This is most definitely the most wonderful time of the year.
Big 12, I would agree will probably be Oklahoma if you can keep your QB out of the used car parking lot:)
SEC, I agree UGA has the best shot on paper, but even though I despise UF because I’m a Seminole, the Gates are going to give them a run for their money, especially since UGA couldn’t win the Cocktail Bowl if they had a gun to their head.
PAC 10, USC, only because the PAC-10 is straight up raggedy.
Big 11, I am so sick of the overrated Big Ten, OSU, they are the ultimate choke school of the first decade in this Millenium. I’m gonna pick Wisconsin just because I despise THE Ohio State University, even though Wisconsin will probably follow their yearly pattern. They get some good recruits, have a good off season, get a good preseason ranking and slowly fade into mediocre oblivion by the end of the season.
ACC, I am deeply offended by your comment on the ACC championship. Clemson is obviously overrated after the schlaking from the Elephants. But here is Clemson’s season every year, they will win some games they shouldn’t win, but then lose a few heartbreakers or lose to some mid level ACC team like Maryland or something, then perform pretty well in a bowl game and everyone will be optimistic about next year.
My pick for the ACC this year, the NOLES BABY! We just got to get our QB situation figured out and I think this has the potential to be a breakout year for the Noles, back on top.
Big East, I agree WVA.
Conference USA, who cares.
National Championship, OU vs. FSU. We will beat the used car salesmen’s 13-2. All those who remember the 2000 NC will know what I’m talking about. I still can’t believe we lost that game, stinking Snoop Minnis.
2008 National Champs, the Noles!

Hey Brad, when was the last time your Sooners won a bowl game? I mean, they are good, but let’s be real…the “big” game has been a problem for ole’ Bobby and the gang.
I hope they do well and I would love to see another title for them, but the reality is whoever plays the best on game day controls the game…Boise State ring a bell? =)
