Don't have a dog in the fight but I think Ohio St is gonna steamroll teams. Don't think they're really challenged until the play-off. Don't think it matters who plays QB.
While they return an unbelievable team, history says otherwise. They'll be a couple games where they're challenged down to the end. Could lose too.

That being said, I still think JT Barrett is the best of the three QBs. Hoping he starts.

Toughest games on paper. @VT, vs Penn St, vs Mich St, maybe vs Minny & @ Mich. They won't see Wisky until B10 title. They'll be ranked #1 all year. I say they run the table until the play-off then we'll see what the likes of Bama, Auburn, USC, TCU, Baylor, FSU can do against them. 15-0 is in play.

FSU returned the heisman winner and #1 pick and 11 other draft picks (and more to come this year) and struggled all year.

The lack of motivation for these kids after winning a title is real and extremely significant IMO.

USC is not sniffing the playoffs. Not enough depth yet, they will lose 2 or 3 minimum
 
Alabama - a lot of extremes.

Best Front 7 in the country...most talented team Saban has had from a recruiting angle....but toughest schedule in the country.

Very good OL and RB as usual...young secondary who did get experience last year, but has to improve...fantastic group of WR...but major questions at QB.

 
:excited: Braxton finally announces he's moving to WR/H back/punt returner. He will be amazing.
 
I just like that Robert Smith is actually saying that the SEC is not the beginning and end to NCAA football. EPSN will probably fire him soon if he doesn't start towing the corporate SEC IS KING line.

No he won't. :no:
Keep telling yourself that. He is an amazingly fluid and natural runner.
It will be interesting to see his progression as a WR. Given he was 2.5 months out from throwing, this made sense. It was his destined position in the nfl anyways.
Better than Devin Gardner was at WR?
 
Miller is Meyers next Harvin, in his eyes it seems. He won't live up to that, but I bet has some success.

His Harvin is actually Jalin Marshall and Dontre Wilson. I think Miller will see some great success at H-B, however.

 
It's mind boggling the sheer volume of talent Urban is getting already for the 2016 and 2017 classes. 2015 was a great class on an already talented team. It's good to be a fan right now. :)

His 2016 class looks good so far but it's not "mind-boggling". Not really different than what Bama and FSU have been doing the past 3-5 years.

Meyer still has a lot of work to do to catch his best class at UF, too.

 
REPORT: Four other Big XII teams other than Nebraska looked to jump to the B1G.

A Big 12 athletic director, who spoke to The World-Herald on condition of anonymity, said he contacted Big Ten athletic directors and presidents with whom he was familiar in June 2010.

The topic: Was the Big Ten, which had 11 members at the time, interested in adding five Big 12 schools?
The feedback from Big Ten school officials was positive, both sources said. The sticking point was devising a revenue-sharing plan to satisfy all. It would have taken at least three to four years for that many incoming schools to hit the financial payoffs sought for moving.
If the predictions come true that the clock is ticking on the Big 12 sticking together, remember what we previously reported from two sources at Nebraska — the Big Ten has done its “homework’’ to evaluate Oklahoma and Kansas as potential members.

I just don't see OU going anywhere without OSU.

I can't say I disagree with you. Screw Kansas and take OSU instead.

totally agree. Also sark is not great as a coach and not sold on Kessler.

Not that it matters now, but Alabama has 7 top 25 and 9 top 27 on their schedule.

I think they've got the hardest schedule in the SEC this year.

Totally agree on Sark. I think it was a poor hire. Kessler put up his biggest statistical games last year against weak opponents but tended to struggle against quality competition. He will have a lot of talent around him though. I expect the Trojans to start out well and then digress as season goes on as injuries take there toll. Glad Oregon gets them at home late in the year.
 
Hard to believe that LSU is up this high with QB issues and that Mississippi State with maybe the best QB in the conference is not in the Top 25

 
Winner of the MSU/UofO game is in prime position early in the season. #5 vs #6.
Will be there.. Going to be a great game. Cant wait.
Nice.

And I hope it is. Oregon is loaded for bear everywhere save for secondary and, ya know, QB. Nervous about such a huge game breaking in a new QB. I have no idea what to expect, save for running the ball more. The RB stable is an embarrassment of riches. Gonna be fun to see how it plays out.
