Who is this FF? That is twice you have mentioned him. And time answers a lot of questions but my crystal ball says teams with off the field problems with no offensive leader, who just got embarrassed by BS come out and stay flat.

It was common knoweledge that Stoops was getting fed up with whole NCAA scene last year. If he didn't think he had a chance to win big this year, he may have taken his ball to the NFL.

Off the field problems? Where?

No leader? They have about 5 of them.

Uh did they not get put on some kind of probation and lost some scholarships am I wrong? I can be wrong, like Manning and Young, in their rookie year I will keep throwing them out there. You can't be afraid to lose if you ever want to win.

They lost a total of 2 scholarships over 2 years. That's not 2+2, but just 2. And the real crap hit the fan at this time last year. They have no distractions, trust me.

ah, some good college football talk......

the GA prediction, a little careless given the losses on D. i do expect them to be a little better offensively, though that will require the WR's to step up......sound familiar? I do think Stafford has potential though. but this isn't the year. the schedule isn't awful, but Okie St will test the defense, and that SC game looms large for a GA team with questions and a SC team looking to make a statement. dates @ Bama, @ TN, the what seems like annual loss at JAX, and what could be considered tough 3 game home stretch with Auburn, KY and @ GT....GA probably winds up somewhere in the neighborhood of 8-4/9-3.

and think about this...two huge SEC E games in the first 3 weeks...SC/GA and FL/TN.......how strange would it be to have SC and FL sitting atop the SEC E after 3 weeks? could happen.

as for TX/OU....i like OU, for many of the reasons already stated. they win that game, they likely go undefeated.

now back to SC for a second. i've not been bashful about saying they legitimately have a shot at the East this year, but the schedule is brutal. get past UGA, and they still have @ lsu, @TN, FL and @ ark. i can't see them winning all 4, nor do i see them losing all 4. prolly 2-2. if your an SC fan, anything less has to be disappointing.

We will most certainly see. Any friendly wagers on this. Whereas, the loser has to make some admission of foolishness and a lack of football knowledge. I am down.

I could care less about a non-monetary wager. If I'm wrong on this one, it doesn't mean I know less than you, and vice versa.

My top 20, which I base on how the season polls looks like, are:

1. USC
2. Oklahoma
3. LSU
4. Texas
5. Michigan
6. Louisville
7. Virginia Tech
8. Oregon
9. West Virginia
10. Tennessee
11. Penn State
12. Miami
13. Arizona State
14. Alabama
15. Ohio State
16. Florida State
17. Missouri
18. Wisconsin
19. Nebraska
20. Rutgers


no room for UF? all of it looks good except Wisc looks a little low and I have to believe that UF shows up better than Missouri/Rutgers

I meant to have Florida in there. Drop them in around 15 and move everyone else down.

Wisconsin will have 2-3 losses.
