THE SEASON SO FAR 10-31

[olympicoscar]

Top Tier: LSU and Alabama (no one else close)
2nd Tier: Stanford, Oklahoma St, Boise St, Oregon
3rd Tier: Oklahoma, Nebraska

Hoping for a miracle: Arkansas, South Carolina, Virginia Tech, Michigan, Penn State.

Biggest Surprises: Michigan, Penn St, Kansas St, Clemson, Cincinnati, Georgia Tech, USC, Washington.

Biggest Disappointments: Texas A&M, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Florida St, Miami, Northwestern.

Heisman Trophy: Andrew Luck (big lead), Landry Jones, Trent Richardson, Kellen Moore, Case Keenum.

Biggest remaining games: LSU-Alabama, Oklahoma-Oklahoma St, Stanford-Oregon, Nebraska-Michigan.

Best bet for nc game: LSU-Alabama winner against Boise St. Oklahoma St, Stanford and Oregon give up too many points on defense.

LSU-Alabama game. Really hard to pick a winner. Just a hunch: LSU by 2 or 3points. Game should be in the 20's.

Oregon obviously belongs in the 3rd tier with the other teams with losses.

The biggest disappointments are correct except for Colorado.

No one expected them to do anything.

In fact, they were talking about losing 10 games.

Oregon's only loss is to LSU. I have them number 5 in my poll. If they defeat Stanford they have a chance to play for the nc. Their offense is 1st class, but the defense leaves something to be desired.

Yes but they've really looked bad and have been non competitive in many of their games. I thought they would win about 4 games.

I think you could push Stanford to the top tier...and Oklahoma should be in the 2nd Tier

Motion to have Wisconsin included in the disappointments list.

Stanford has played 1 really good team, USC. I just feel that Alabama and LSU would have won by much bigger scores. A win over Oregon would do the trick.

2 crushing losses at the end can do that. Season not over yet and they have looked good for the majority. They should run the table and who knows how things will end. Still some important Big 10 games to play. No one is a lock for the conference championship game yet.
