Welcome to my NCAA mini-preview! This will be how the Friday post will look starting September 9th. and ending with the Men's National Championship Game in April. Each week, I will list out my top-15, my Heisman front runner, and my story of the week. At the end of the year it will be fun to see what I got right, and what you will ridicule me for getting wrong.
Let's begin:
Top 15
- Oklahoma -- Easily the class of the nation, but tough conference play may derail BCS dream.
- Oregon -- Ducks' offense should give them a shot, but a November meeting with Stanford looms.
- Alabama -- 'Bama's defense is better than some NFL teams, but the iffy offense could stop them.
- Boise State -- Boise should go unbeaten, but may not rise above this ranking.
- Stanford -- My dark horse for the National Title.
- LSU -- Never count out the Tigers, but the always tough SEC is a blessing and a curse.
- Wisconsin -- Class of the Big Ten. Much better than overrated Nebraska.
- Oklahoma State -- Could be surprise Big 12 champ, upset special over the Sooners.
- Florida State -- I don't like the Seminoles this year, but they're talented enough to win ACC.
- Texas A&M -- Tough-as-nails as Aggies will give the Cowboys and Sooners close games.
- TCU -- My dream would be a Boise-TCU BCS title game, but Boise's move to MWC ends that.
- South Carolina -- The old ball coach will have them ready to play. Could be a land mine team.
- Arkansas --Ditto with the Razorbacks. Wouldn't put the SEC title game past them.
- Virginia Tech -- Tech is always exciting on paper, but blah on the field. Should win ACC.
- Georgia -- Tough opener against Boise, but good showing will put the Dawgs back on the map.
Heisman winner: Andrew Luck, Stanford -- Way to go out on a limb, huh.
Surprise team: Penn State -- Talented D will put Lions in the inaugural Big Ten title game.
Game of the Year: Penn State vs. Wisconsin. PSU pulls out 3-point victory to clinch Big Ten title game birth.
