pretty good.. I don't know about Auburn going undefeated but they do have a very easy schedule. I would put Florida over Georgia in the east. Georgia will have either the one of the worst QBs in the SEC or a freshman either way not good. Clemson over FSU in the Atlantic. Also West Virginia is way overhyped Louisville will win the Big East this year.

Florida's situation reminds me somewhat of ours last season. Tons of talent but a killer schedule. Also, not the same as 2005 UT, but they have no returning starters on the offensive line.

3 straight #1 recruiting classes, toughest games are at home, best coach in football

How about being in the Pac-10................

What are we looking at, Cal and Arizona State as the only true competition?

Cal

ASU is going to do very well, but I think its a two horse race between USC and Cal

Also, my posting of this shows either a) how much time I have on my hands or B ) how much thought I put into it

Regardless of whether its A or B, don't you think I would know who they lost to the NFL? I mean, seriously.

Penn St lost, for practical reason, their entire team from last year. I do not expect 3 linebackers to carry an entire team.

As for Kansas State, they play in one of the weakest divisions in college football. I am surprised Snyder left with how many returning starters were coming back.

Yeah, they return 17 starters from the offense and defense from a team who only won 2 games in conference. They should definitely improve on that. However, Nebraska returns 15 on offense and defense, and was clearly better than KState last season. We'll see though!

Having returning starters who aren't any good is no real benefit.

This is the more direct and more blunt way of saying what I was saying. Thank you. :)

Since when did the Big 12 North become world beaters?

Kansas State will win their division without any doubt. Kansas State had very close games last year and will benefit from a turnover turnaround.

Let's see. You have 4 teams going undefeated, and you have 7 teams suffering only one loss. I don't think so.

if they can get a good qb penn state will be just fine. they have one if not the best young recieving group in the nation.

What about their offensive and defensive lines?

U're seriously sticking with USC going undefeated, even with their recruits(who have never played a NCAA D-1 game) PLEASE. I'll bet my truck that they won't go undefeated.

Who will challenge them? Worse case scenario it will be a 2 loss season.
