College football prediction time!
Edited on Wed Aug-24-11 02:40 PM by Capt. America
Now that we are only eight days away from the start of high holy season, its time to start the DU predictions. Here are the guidelines, you must select division winners (if applicable) and who will win the championship.

I'll start.

Big East: WV

ACC Coastal: VT
ACC Atlantic: FL. State
Winner: VT

Big "12": Oklahoma

SEC East: SC
SEC West: LSU
Winner: LSU

PAC-12 North: Oregon
PAC-12 South: USC (AZ State in Championship Game due to ban)
Winner: Oregon

B1G "Legends" (ughh): Sparty
B1G "Leaders" (yuck): Wisky
Winner: Wisky

National title game: Perhaps LSU has two or three losses, one of them to Oregon, thus a one loss Wisky goes to BCS title game and plays a one loss Oregon team....who wins???...tortoise vs. hare????...Oregon.

6. You'll be eating your words when Boise State plays for the championship.
They will be good this year. I'm not sure about TCU.

2. Come on.. How about Ohio State? Or is it suppose to be The Ohio State?
Personally, I thought that coach did a lousy job in coaching. Especially in bowl games. He made himself out as one with integrity and then we all find out differently. I never liked him and I guess maybe, just maybe that was part of it.

Looks like a monumental 'Homage to Sausages' or something super-sophisticated like that.

18. This artwork is called "National Velvet"
I guess you're supposed to imagine Elizabeth Taylor with hemorrhoids.



There are several so-called artworks in Denver that the city payed a lot for.

14. You'll be talented, mad. No doubt. It's the coaching I question.
Luke(the Sub-Urban)Fickell has much to prove.

15. The interesting thing, Condem, is that Fickell has
Edited on Fri Aug-26-11 08:41 PM by madinmaryland
nothing to lose with this opportunity. Might as well open it up on offense and see what happens.

Tressel took ultra talented teams up against UM-of Ohio and would win 26-13. Don't think you see the same thing under Fickell. If OSU has a chance it has to be balls to the wall football.

17. They could be 4-0 when Michigan State comes to the Horseshoe.
If Fickell presses the guys in the early games, they may have a chance. If they play well, they have everyone else back (minus Pryor) for the Nebraska game.
