15 days away! Looking forward to 9/3. Any of your teams got a big match up right off the bat? Clemson is playing Troy. Troy is kinda dangerous and might give the Tigers a scare, but I'm thinking Clemson ultimately wears them down and runs away with it. Really looking forward to week 3 through 5...Clemson plays Auburn, FSU, and Va Tech in that stretch. That should give me a pretty good indication of where they are. |

Is it bad that i'll probably pull for Clemson against Auburn? |

I'm sorry you had to read that, Kris. Who will you put your support behind in the Alabama/Penn State battle? |

I want Auburn to lose every chance they get. |

tOSU should win every one of their non-con games. Turned out to be a pretty weak one considering all that's happened at Miami FL now. How I see the Big Ten shaking out (homerism included): Annoyingly Named B1G Division 1 1. Ohio State 2. Wisconsin 3. Illinois 4. Penn State 5. Purdue 6. Indiana Annoyingly Named B1G Division 2 1. Nebraska 2. Michigan St 3. Iowa 4. Michigan 5. Northwestern 6. Minnesota |

Just bought my tickets for Arizona State vs. Mizzou in early September. Should be a fun game. A few thoughts on this year (mostly Big 12 stuff)... - Nebraska in the Big 10 is going to be weird. I bet they lose a game or two to a lesser opponent just because the teams aren't familiar with each other. - Oklahoma should not be number one. There is a very small chance they run the table in the new look Big 12. - A&M is overrated. - Kansas State, Kansas, and Iowa State will really struggle to win 6 games. - An SEC will probably win the national championship again. - An ACC team will lose in the Orange Bowl. |

Big schedule advantage provided they can survive the back-to-back road games at Nebraska and Illinois. |

Cautiously optimistic about UT as we begin the post-Greg Davis era. Will be happy if we can win at least 9. |
