2007 College Football Season Predictions

College Football starts tomorrow night... Yes tomorrow night, fall is almost upon us so here goes a full out conference by conference BCS by BCS prediction. And then in January I can pretend like I was a genius or not mention how bad my picks were.

Conferences I Don't Care About Winners

Sub Belt: Louisiana Lafayette, cause their Ragin Cajuns.
CUSA East: Southern Miss, Home of Favre.
CUSA West: Houston, Cause Everyone Loves Cougars.
CUSA Winner: Houston, Again Cougars = USA.
MAC East: Bowling Green, Cause I like Bowling.
MAC West: Western Michigan, A Directional Michigan Winning?
MAC Winner: Western Michigan, And the Title too?
Mountain West: TCU, Blew it last year, won't this year.
WAC: Hawaii, Colt Brennan will put up massive #s.

Important Conference Winners

ACC Atlantic: I'm going bounce back year for FSU in the ACC Atlantic because they finally fired their douche offensive coordinator that refused to get it done year after year. Now Bobby brought in some real coaches so maybe just maybe they can convince their QB not to suck. And well the ACC really isn't that good.

ACC Coastal: Everyone should root for VaTech this year unless they are playing your school. And everyone should hope that they pull through and win the ACC Coastal so that they can throw parties on the beaches of Blacksburg... err the mountainous landscape which resides nowhere near the Atlantic Ocean.

ACC Winner: VaTech 20 FSU 9, Hokie pride. I really think the defense should carry VaTech to the title this season. Granted Glennon sucks, really badly and they typically choke atleast a couple times a season. But this year could be different. Vick will be celebrating in lockdown.

Big East Winner: Another three team battle between Rutgers, West Virginia and Louisville. The Big East which looked like the ugly stepsister of the BCS for so long has one of the most intriguing races in all of football this season. Come October 27th when WVU heads to Piscataway I expect all three teams to be undefeated. And you know what I'm gonna be the odd ball that says Rutgers gets it done that game, but then loses to Louisville in a reversal of last years fate. And Louisville takes the Big East crown.

Big 10 Winner: Me talking about the Big 10 has some major biases. I love Michigan, but as a fan know that they pretty much choke every single year, and that is before they lose the bowl game. This year I think they finally get it done against Ohio St. but their stumbling block comes in Badgerland, but the Badgers lose a few games earlier in the season and Michigan ends up with the Big 10 crown.

Big 12 North: For the first time in years their might actually be reason to care about the Big 12 North, well atleast one team, as Nebraska should actually be pretty good this season. Reason being they actually have a veteran QB who has had a lot of success during college, just not at Nebraska. Arizona St. transfer Sam Keller is their Qb.

Big 12 South:Bob Stoops probably isn't very happy at the fact he will be suiting up a red shirt freshman to play Quarterback for the Sooners this year. Especially considering during their peak years he was running out 5th year seniors. Once again this will come down to the Red River Shootout, unless A&M makes a push which is doubtful, and Texas will again take it home.

Big 12 Title Game: Texas 24 Nebraska 20, the Longhorns sneak by the Cornhuskers to pave their way to the BCS... But which game?

Pac 10 Winner: Wake me up when the Pac-10 supplies some competition for the Trojans. It's been the Pac 1+9 for a long time right now and their is no evidence that it is going to change this season. USC is going to continue to run the train on their competition and this year won't choke against UCLA.

SEC East: They won the national title last year and lost a lot of players and a lot of folks think they're going to have a down season. Me? I think the SEC East is a big clusterf*ck and no one is going to come close to running the table and eventually Florida will sneak out of the pac because Urban Meyer is a genius.

SEC West: The SEC West is probably going to be down this season from it's typical standards and Les "Assbag" Miles should have his defensive juggernaut ready to run havoc on the competition.

SEC Winner: Florida 17 LSU 13, Les Miles vs. Urban Meyer... hmm... I'm sorry I don't have to put much thought into Urban Meyer masterminding a game plan which leads him to defeat a team with slightly superior talent.

Heisman Winner

Personally I think the Heisman is up for grabs this year big time with no real front runner. I know people are in love with McFadden but will Arkansas be that good this season? Everyone and their mother is picking USC for the title so won't that give Booty the edge? I'm gonna go out on a limb and pick someone a little less likely. Ray Rice of Rutgers. His numbers were phenomenal last season, Rutgers has a cake walk early schedule in which he can pile up big time numbers and big time hype and Rutgers can climb up the polls. If Rutgers can get it done against UL and/or WVU he will be there at the Ceremony with a chance to take the trophy home.

BCS Title Game Predictions

Fiesta Bowl: Wisconsin vs. Oklahoma - The Fiesta bowl always brings some random matchup. Wisconsin Oklahoma is pretty random. I actually think the Badgers would pull of this victory.

Orange Bowl: Virginia Tech vs. West Virginia - West Virginia finishes the season near the bubble of BCS eligible schools however the Orange Bowl seeks out this rivalry because, well the two schools hate each other and will travel well to the game and bring a little mountain interest. Tech ends up knocking out White or Slaton from the game and taking home BCS win.

Rose Bowl: Michigan vs. LSU - Another season another trip to the Rose Bowl for Michigan and another loss. Not much else to say. This will bode well for LSU next season.

Sugar Bowl: Florida vs. Louisville - After Louisville snipes the Big East Crown on some sort of weird fangled tie breaker they get to face Florida in the Sugar bowl. Aka, they get throttled in the Sugar Bowl.

National Title Game: USC vs. Texas - Both teams run the table, the only two in the country to do so. Here's the indelible pattern that you should realize by now if you've paid attention to college football, you beat Michigan in the Rose Bowl you win the next National Championship, perhaps that's their excuse for being dominated in the game. 2004 Michigan loses to USC 28-14, USC dominates Oklahoma in the national championship game. 2005 Michigan loses to Texas 38-37 because Vince Young acts like god, next year Vince Young acts like god again and knocks of the Trojans. 2007 USC throttle Michigan next year the Trojans parade around the town with another trophy.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
