It looks likes another exciting year in the world of NCAA football, but I think there is going to be a surprise, and USC WILL LOSE A GAMEto either Oregon or UCLA, who both look solid. Even the best teams lose sometimes, just ask 2003 Oklahoma and some 70s versions of Alabama and Notre Dame.

Confrence Champs:
ACC: Virginia Tech
Big East: Louisville
Big 10: Michigan
Big 12: Oklahoma
Conf. USA: Southern Miss
MAC: Toledo
Mt. West: Wyoming
Pac-10: USC
SEC: I refuse to answer
Sun Belt: North Texas
WAC: Boise State

Surprise Teams:
Memphis
NC State
Alabama
Kansas
Penn State

Disappointments:
USC (wouldn't anything but perfect be a disappointment?)
Iowa
Florida State
Florida
Boston College

ok heres my take.

The Fighting Irish will have a decent year under new coach Charlie Weis.

NC State is a sleeping giant. Look what they did in BBALL in 1983.

USC will win it all. With Lienart and Bush retunring they will without s doubt take it all.

The only team i see comperintg with USC is Texas. And i'll tell you why Vince Young is going to lead his team this year.

The heisman winner is goign to be with out a doubt Matt Leinart. The kids unbleiavble. Reggie Bush will closley follow him. Theni think Vince Young. He is agood scrambling QB.

Confrence Champs:
ACC: Florida State
Big East: Pittsburgh
Big 10: Iowa
Big 12: Oklahoma
Conf. USA: UTEP
MAC: Bowling Green
Mt. West: Wyoming
Pac-10: USC
SEC: LSU
Sun Belt: North Texas
WAC: Boise State

Surprise Teams:
Notre Dame
NC State
Wisconsin
Michigan State
Toledo

Disappointments:
Miami
Florida
Michigan
Auburn
Boston College

that is what i think

I love college football. It's so fun to watch. Anyway I like Oklahoma's chances. Adrian Peterson is such a talented HB. Look for anaother big year from him. He can put that team on his back and run with it. Look for OU to have a big season.

Go Blue! It's going to be weird with no Braylon Edwards, but I think Chad Henne's a good enough QB to lead the team without him.

It's been so long since I heard anything about Michigan, or NCAA FB. Should be a fun year.

Conference Champs:
ACC: Virginia Tech
Big East: Louisville
Big Ten: Michigan
Big 12: Texas
Conf. USA: Southern Miss
MAC: Bowling Green
Mt. West: Utah
Pac-10: USC
SEC: LSU
Sun Belt: North Texas
WAC: Fresno State

Surprise Teams:
Alabama
Boston College
Penn State
Purdue
Texas A&M

Disappointments:
Georgia
Miami
Notre Dame
Oklahoma
Tennessee

5. Virginia Tech

7. Oklahoma

Sorry, I just did

Not too bad a top 25 (with the exception of LSU at #2 )... it's almost as good as the current one which looks something like this:

1.___
2.___
3.___...
25.___ <--- The way it always should've been!

Not to take away from anyone's preseason picks, but finally they're just for fun and they've got the "REAL" polls OUT of the preseason bias.

LSU could probably be anywhere from 2nd to 15th or so. In my opinion, they have the second-most talent of any team (behind USC), but it'll all depend on how they adjust to the new coach and if their young quarterbacks show improvement. Their schedule is set up perfectly for them to go undefeated (hardest road game at Alabama). And yes, I know preseason polls are just for fun. I just wanted to weigh in with my opinion.

It didn't take long for college football's first major upset. Unranked TCU strutted into Norman and kicked the seventh-ranked Sooners in the kisser, winning 17-10.

Bowling Green almost pulled it off against Wisconsin... that woulda been somethin too

WOOO! OU YOU SUCK WE OWN YOU!!! GO SC!!! FIGHT ON!!! No to not such a high note...

Rutgers lost after being up 20-7, looks like we're back to our old ways after I thought we were going to only lose like 4 games the whole year.

usc dominates hawaii 63-17

How about that Texas game, 60-3, Texas over LA Lafayette.

Anyone see the play by Brian Leonard though? Number 1 on Sports Center About time Leonard got some love! He hurdled that defender, OMG, it was pure ownage.

WHOOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Saturday, September 10, 2005 one of the most talked about football games is gonna take place.

This is nuts. Texas vs. Ohio State. I haven't found my self this excited for a sports game in years. Thousands of people are trying to get tickets. They are selling for $3000 dollars on EBay! In the Ohio Newspaper there were over 100 ads selling/looking for tickets. On average 30 media tickets are given out, for this game they are giving out 100. The game is sold out and the stadium is expect at compacity crowd. Plus they are expecting over 1000 fans to show up around game time. People from all over the country have been lining up for three days. This is insane!

I've read all the article about this game I can't wait. Like I said I haven't found my self this excited for a sports game in years. Its gonna be nuts and i'm gonna be wachin'.

If your a sports fan check out this article:
Must Read

It puts the crazyness into perspective.

Michigan vs. Notre Dame.

GO BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go ND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

UPSET CITY BABY! ND knocks off Michigan in one of the greatest victories in Notre Dame history. Charlie Weis already has coach of the year locked up. They could go 2-10 from here on out and Weis should still win it.

Weis is amazing. He came in and won against #3 Mighigan on the road
