I love college football and know quite a few on here who do as well. I figure we should have a place where we can start discussing this upcoming season beyond just BYU and Utah (or USC and Oregon).
There are some pretty interesting story lines going on this year. One thing that has been jumping out at me lately is this West Virginia situation. What a circus the last couple of weeks have been. But it looks like they are buying out Stewart’s contract (probably for the better) and they’ll officially start the Dana Holgorsen era. WVU has an amazing defense and some pretty good talent. It’ll be interesting to see what he can do with that offense. Outside of this the Big East doesn’t interest me at all.
The Big Ten looks wide open now. Michigan State probably looks like the favorite, with Nebraska up there if they can get consistency out of Martinez. It’ll be interesting to see if some of the teams getting a lot of hype will live up to it: Notre Dame, Florida State, Oklahoma, and South Carolina.
Some teams I just can’t buy into. Stanford as a top 10 team? Even with Luck I don’t think they are a 10 win team. They lost so much on both lines and a fiery coach. Alabama will get hype because it’s Alabama but they lose a lot of offense. LSU might get some offense together now that Crowton is gone. That’s probably my pick to win the SEC as of now.
Anyway, I can’t wait for the season to start already. Only 3 months to go.
