Oregon Pitt Connecticut Houston Baylor LSU Hawaii – the most unfair advantage in sports will come into play. Michigan State Clemson Oklahoma State – this is by far the toughest one to pick And should be the best game! Hope my boy Griffin III mops the floor with Texas too.

It was neck and neck between Lardy & rick for the last few weeks but rick had his worst week of the year at the worst possible time. Congrats to Lardy for winning the regular season title!

So, now the question is do you guys want to go on and do bowl predictions like we did last year? Or call it a day?
Bowl predictions would be split into two sets of about 18 games in each. First group would be the minor bowls through New Years Eve (more or less) Second group would be the major-ish bowls (starting New Years Eve) through the BCS Championship Game.
Let me know what you think.

Let's keep going!
Lardy won the title, and we'll have another statistic of who wins bowl games + reg season.
Watched OK State slaughter OK last night. LSU had a similar performance but only in the 2nd half.

Dang it MSU!!!
Congrats to Lardy on a job well done. I do find it interesting that only 10 points separated Lardy (1st) and me (last).
Nice thing to know is that I was at least over .500 without having any real clue what I was doing.
Looking forward to the bowl games.

What's fascinating is that every year almost everyone falls within 7-8 points of one another, and it's almost always high 50's / low 60's. College football is SO unpredictable! It's what makes it so great!

I agree, it's so much more fun exactly because you never really know what will happen on any given day!
Gotta say, I'm starting to prepare the matrix for the bowl games and there are going to be some really intriguing match ups to contend with. Games like Michigan State v Georgia or Baylor v Arkansas or even Boise State v Arizona State are looking very likely. Should be very interesting and lots of fun.

Here's the last AP Poll for the regular season. Must say (at the risk of raising Kipper's ire) that I'm disappointed the voters still insist on keeping Alabama at number 2 after the blowout of Oklahoma by Oklahoma State. This pretty much insures an LSU v Alabama rematch in the BCS Championship Game. We'll have to see what the computers did in the BCS poll and if its enough but I'm not holding my breath until that is announced tonight.
AP Top 25
1.LSU (60)
2.Alabama
3.Oklahoma St.
4.Stanford
5.USC
6.Oregon
7.Arkansas
8.Boise St.
9.Wisconsin
10.South Carolina
11.Kansas St.
12.Michigan St.
13.Michigan
14.Clemson
15.Baylor
16.TCU
17.Virginia Tech
18.Georgia
19.Oklahoma
20.Houston
21.Nebraska
22.Southern Miss
23.West Virginia
24.Penn St.
25.Florida St.

The last time Clemson won the ACC title was when I was still enrolled there, 20 years ago! Gotta admit, my hopes were not high last night, but the Tigers played LIGHTS OUT! (Too bad we can't play Va. Tech again in the Orange Bowl!  )
