Yesterday, Brian gave you his hopes and predictions for the upcoming
season. Today it’s my turn. No idea if we’ll hear from JD. Kickoff is tomorrow
y’all. Let’s hope Jadaveon Clowney doesn’t kill anybody…
AAC: Louisville -This watered down version of a watered down Big East just doesn’t have any
punch. I think Louisville could contend in the ACC if they had made the move
this year, but I know they will win the AAC. Let the Papa John’s flow.
ACC: Clemson –
Honestly this is not an easy pick. But I am going to go with Clemson over
Florida State because they are the ones starting a senior and FSU is starting a
redshirt freshman. Additionally, FSU has to visit Death Valley.
Big 10: Ohio State
– I want to pick Michigan but I know better. Despite what people think of Urban
Meyer, he knows how to win football games (he just might leave the cupboard
bare after doing so) plus that schedule is softer than Louis Andersons back
fat.
Big 12: Oklahoma
State – Sure, the popular pick is Texas here, but I just have a hunch. Texas
could lose a number of early season games that could shake their confidence.
Meanwhile, Oklahoma State takes a road trip in September to the University of
Texas at San Antonio. Really? They get all of their tough conference games
except Texas at home. The Big 12 really is the Wild West so I’m going with an
unconventional winner.
Pac 12: Oregon –
Everyone thinks the Ducks will take a step back without Chip Kelly this year.
You want to know a team that didn’t take a step back when they lost their head
coach, Stanford. Stanford lost their #1 draft pick QB too. Oregon did not.
Expect them to keep rolling it up in Eugene.
SEC: Georgia – Let
the calls of “Bias” come out. The fact is that even when I knew UGA had no
chance at winning it all, I picked them to win it all. Now they have a
legitimate chance and I’m not backing off. The big game is South Carolina, if
they can get over that hump, regardless of what happens against Clemson, then
they can make it back to Atlanta. For some reason, I think things will fall the
Dawgs way this time even if it means a rematch with the Tide
National
Championship: Georgia over Ohio State – No reason to pick against the SEC Champion
here. A 1-loss UGA team gets in over an undefeated Louisville team, and
rightfully so. UGA will end their season with back-to-back wins over an
undefeated Bama team in the SEC Championship and an undefeated Ohio State team
in the National Championship. Now only if they can beat Clemson…
