Title: Predictions for 2nd Half of College Football Season-Article Post by: Marshal Dillon on October 18, 2012, 12:57:31 PM Interesting read.
Quote No team will be unbeaten by the end of the day on Dec. 1 Alabama looks unbeatable, right? It should –- it hasn’t played anyone with a pulse. Actually, Michigan isn’t bad, but Denard Robinson and that offense was the perfect one-dimensional fit for a Tide defense that had no problems keying on one player. http://collegefootball.scout.com/2/1230696.html :popcorn2: Title: Re: Predictions for 2nd Half of College Football Season-Article Post by: Leroy on October 18, 2012, 01:29:12 PM Yep...interesting read MD ;)
I disagree with a couple of his predictions but a championship game featuring Bama vs Notre Dame would tickle the P out of me :D Title: Re: Predictions for 2nd Half of College Football Season-Article Post by: BAMAWV on October 18, 2012, 01:59:39 PM This is old but nevertheless an interesting exercise:

Those two games, along with a road date at LSU and a nasty home battle against Mississippi State, will all be dangerous, but it will be the Aggies who’ll have just the right mix to pull off the shocker to be the right team on the right day. Alabama will then go on to beat Georgia in the SEC championship. What is this guy smoking?TAM? No defense. Won't be able to stop Bama's rushing game. Georgia? Maybe the third best team in the East. Notre Dame? I think Oregon can win out with its soft schedule. ND definitely is going to lose at least one or two games. Title: Re: Predictions for 2nd Half of College Football Season-Article Post by: Catch Prothro on October 19, 2012, 06:16:13 AM Here are some of his predictions over the summer of teams that could disappoint this year.
Quote Kansas State No one gets on the right side of every close game two years in a row. Nine of the 13 Wildcat games last season were decided by a touchdown or less, and Kansas State went 8-1 in the tight ones. They weren’t lucky last season, but they managed to come up with tight victory after tight victory with an offense that didn’t show much through the air and with a defense saved by the O that dominated the time of possession. Collin Klein will throw more and the team will still be good, but another 10-win season is asking for a lot... Quote Notre Dame Schedule, schedule, schedule. There might be measurements or formulas that say someone else has the nation’s toughest slate, but they’d be wrong. The Irish only have one back-to-back home tilt, and it’s not exactly easy facing Stanford and BYU. They have to start out by going to Ireland to face Navy before coming back to turn it around in a hurry to deal with Purdue, at Michigan State, and Michigan in a three-game Big Ten run. With road games at Oklahoma and USC and no dates with anyone from outside a BCS Conference... |
