Big 12- OU looks really good and is hard to pick against. with only games against Colorado and TX, maybe a tuff one in alabama (but who knows how bama is gonna turn out) on the road that look difficult, I see them winning the south division, and takin out K-state in the big 12 champ game to play in new orleans. Nebraska has a lot to prove this year, but i believe they still a couple years (and a new offensive scheme) away from being near the level that they were.
Big 10- I like OSU to win the big 10, if thier defense can jell. Offense looks like it will open up a bit with most of the starters returning, tho u have to watch out for michigan, which is seriously hungry for a big 10 title again.
ACC- is hard to pick, with 4 decent teams that could contend this year. The terps are becomming pererinal contenders, Fsu looks to be reloaded (qb is still an issue witht the team tho). Nc state looks exciting to watch down the stretch, and Virginia is a serious up and commer.
The SEC- looks like it is Auburn's year to take it. they do have arguably the tuffest schedule in the nation tho, and that could really affect its best chance in the last few years to take the sec. LSU looks strong as well, and i'd like to see them do more than just turn a few heads this year. In the east, it looks like tennesse might get its act together (if they can find some offense) while georgia is reloading at defense.
The big east- is pretty easy to pick, with Miami being the no brainer. Might have a few issues at QB, with transfer brock berlin taking the helm, but he has no lack of talent. i like pitt to finish second over VT actually, simply because of the promise that they showed last year. be nice to see them crack out of the shadow of the top 2.
Overall i like OU to play for and win the championship against miami, tho i hope they play OSU simply so i can give hell to some buddies of mine.
