The downfalls gone be epic.

Sure thing. Same as last year when all y’all mush mouths were saying there’s no way our offense would be as good without Mixon, Perine, and Westbrook. Same song, different verse.

Same thing you said last year. Good luck.

Honestly last year I said your running backs would be no where as good as the year before. Not your offense. I still said you’d win the B12. An you did.

An your team won me a bunch of money all year. I just like to troll you.

ACC-Miami

Big10-Penn St (They were wiped out on defense) Mich will not
live up to pre-season hype.

Big12-TCU

PAC12-USC

SEC-Georgia (They'll still win the East and won't lose an OOC game
but the expectation is for them to challenge for a NC. They lost
a lot on defense but losing those two running backs is gonna put some pressure on their QB to win games with his arm. They
won't equal their 13 wins from last season.

I wanted to say Auburn, because Gus is usually an every other
year guy, but he's got a good kid at QB and he does well when he
has that.

Still not getting the TCU love. They can’t just reload like Oklahoma. They lost a ton.

ACC - Virginia Tech

Big Ten - Michigan
PAC 12 - USC
SEC - LSU

This was a hard category to choose from. Basically throwing darts.

Last year, I thought Clemson would struggle, el wrongo was I.

Penn St, Miami and USC come to mind.

Expectations are oddly low in the SEC just because Alabama and Georgia are written in pen by just about everyone. Of the two, Georgia definitely is more suspect but still hard to pick against.

I agree with all these. Miami Penn St, TCU, USC. Only difference is I don't see the Miss St love. I'd pick them to disappoint more than Georgia in the SEC.

I don't either. Not that they'll be a walkover for anyone. I think they'll play hard on both sides of the ball...it just won't be enough.

From what I've observed over the years, Patterson is good when he has experience. I don't think they have that much of it this year.

You were correct when they made the trek to Syracuse. Give yourself a little credit!

I don't get the LSU picks. I'm sure their fanbase expects to win this year, but the consensus I've seen from non LSU fans is that there's a real possibility that they won't even make a bowl game this year.

I'm suprised by all the USC picks, not that i think they'll do great, I just haven't seen very many high expectations.
