So, another glorious season of college football begins tonight. After last year's unprecedented number of upsets, it will be interesting to see if the traditional elite teams re-establish their dominance or if 2007 was the beginning of a shift in power among the top teams.

Personally, I'm hoping for the latter. Last season was great fun to watch, and the intensity was raised to a whole new level because the non-ranked teams really believed they could compete with the elite teams, and then they proved it on the field. The fans seemed to be cheering harder and louder than ever because every team had a legitimate chance of winning on any given day.

I don't think any of that would've happened if it weren't for the App St/Michigan upset on the first weekend of the season. This year, as always, nearly all of the ranked teams are playing cupcakes this weekend... but I'm sure they will all be prepared this time to avoid becoming the Michigan of 2008.

Should be a great season... Go Bucks!
