OSU will NOT lose to Penn State this year.

I think that's accurate.

BUFFALO (home) W
NAVY (home) W
NORFOLK STATE(homecoming) W
MARYLAND(home) tough game, close, but W
CINCINNATI(home) W, oh my will we get revenge
Syracuse(in 'cus) W
SOUTH FLORIDA(home) W, but im only so confident because it's a home game. Close game, USF is on the rise.
WEST VIRGINIA(home) W, mainly again, because we're home. Last year, we hung with them up til the end. another exciting matchup, but i say we come out on top
Connecticut(in UCONN) W
Army(in West Point) W
PITTSBURGH(home) W
Louisville( in Lou.) L, We will lose one game, either to WVA or Lou. I think this one, because the pressure of going undefeated(hopefully) and the WVA game is at home. I feel Louisville, with a new coach and RB will have 2 losses, but part of me says only 1 because of Brohm. I predict Rutgers and WVA will be tied at 11-1 atop the Big East with Louisville behind with 2 losses. Rutgers has the tiebreaker over WVA with the win and goes to a BCS bowl!!
now, yes, some of this may be homerism, but looking at the schedule, it's not out of the question by any means. the 2 games I'm most afraid of(other than WVA and Lou.) are USF and maybe Cincy, but trust me, the RU faithful and players do not forget last year's awful game at cincy, and the USF game was close last year, but this year its at home

I'd say 8-4 with some luck, or 7-5/6-6. It all comes down to the UCLA, GT and MSU games.
Georgia Tech Toss-up, but I'm siding with a W
(24) Penn State L
(8) Michigan L
Michigan State W
at Purdue W
at UCLA Toss-up
(20) Boston College Toss-up
(4) USC Awful, awful L
Navy W
Air Force W
Duke W
at Stanford W

Just wondering something. Are those rankings at the end of this season because I think all those teams will be ranked higher. Is it your ranking or the end of season one?

Just what I got off of Yahoo sports. I believe it's end of season. I honestly have no idea.

UM
Miami Hurricanes
Marshall= (W)
Oklahoma= (W/L) close game no matter what anybody says.
FIU= (W) i wonder if there will be another brawl it is at the OB again. by this game we will be in the top 25
Tex A&M= (W) but very close game.
Duke= (W) if we dont have a bunch of suspended players it will be a easy win.
North Carolina= (W) easy win like the duke game.
Georgia Tech= (W) not an easy win but were at home we have the advantage this year.
Florida State= (W/L) u wont believe this but i think by the time these two play each other they will be in the top 20-10. i think it will go any way both teams are stacked with talent.
NC State= (W) we will win by 2 TD's
Virginia= (W) last year was big time ******** we will win hands down
VT= (W/L) i have some kind of feeling by this point in the season we would probably show the world that we deserve respect again.
Boston college= (W) we win by a TD or FG.
best case: 12-0 regular season the acc title might give the little edge to play in the NC
worst case: 8-4 regular season bowl game win or loss
in between: 10-2 or 9-3
no will agree with me but FSU and Miami will have their comeback this year.
Go Canes

My beloved school is Arizona State. With Dennis Erickson, things are looking up and the team is flying a little under the radar this season for a change, unlike the last two where ASU was ranked in the preseason only to end up with a mediocre season. The schedule is very workable -
09/01 San Jose St 10:00 PM
09/08 Colorado 10:15 PM
09/15 SDSU 10:00 PM
09/22 Oregon St 9:00 PM
09/29 at Stanford 10:00 PM
10/06 at Wash St TBD
10/13 Washington TBD
10/27 California 10:00 PM
11/03 at Oregon 3:30 PM
11/10 at UCLA TBD
11/22 USC 8:00 PM
12/01 Arizona 8:00 PM
The non conference schedule is easy, three home games vs. teams ASU is clearly better than.
In the Pac 10, ASU has USC, California and Oregon State at home, and UCLA and Oregon on the road, with a tricky game at Washington State. I think this schedule is favorable enough to have a 6-3 or 5-4 conference record, which would put ASU at 9-3 or 8-4 overall. It really all depends on how Rudy Carpenter rebounds from his sophomore slump and if any recievers step up. Ryan Torain should help him out (1200+ yard rusher in 06) and ASU's defense is average, not exactly good, but not too bad either.

I love Miami but Geomar's list is exactly what i would have had, and WVU will be 12 - 0, so i ll do Mizzou, which is my school...
Illinois - close, high scoring game, cant wait to watch this one. W
Ole Miss - close game again, i have a gut feeling we ll lose bc its at Ole Miss. But W
Western Michigan - Win
Illinois State - Win
Nebraska - Another game im looking forward too, this game makes the season. Win and hopefully the Big 12 north
Oklahoma - Loss, i dont think we have a chance
Texas Tech - Should be fun to watch with it getting into the 40's. W
Iowa St. - We got screwed last year, wont happen again. W
Colorado - Close bc its at CU but it shouldnt be too bad. W
Texas A&M - Another game im looking forward to seeing, its at home but so it could go either way but i dont want to set my expectations too high. L
K State - Close game but we should pull it out. W
Kansas - Win, No doubts
As i look at this 11-1 is possible but unlikely bc of our young defense, 10-2 or 9-3, and hopefully the big 12 north.

Pat White is highly, highly overrated. But that system works wonders. I wouldn't be surprised to see Brohm from UL throw for 400 yards and 4-5 touchdowns on your secondary. The defense is the only reason I don't see WVU in the national title game.

Gators 10-2 or 9-3 before maybe playing in the SEC championship game, depending on how things shake out. They'll be the highest ranked team with however many losses they have.

pat white isnt overrated; maybe as a prospect, but not as a college player
brohms stats for the game 19/26 354yds 13.6 avg 1 td 0 int
TRENT GUY 40 YD PUNT RETURN--we do a rugby punt and the old punter punted it to the wrong side; the coverage went left and he punted right--last time he saw the field
MALIK JACKSON 13 YD DEFENSIVE FUMBLE RETURN--slatons wrist was messed up; got it fixed, shouldnt be a problem
thats what killed us; not brohm
the defense will be better this year; it cant be worse
Pat White 13/20 222 11.1 ---passing stats
Steve Slaton 18 156 8.7 avg 1 td
Pat White 23 125 5.4 avg 4 td---rushing stats
wvu was w/o slaton for the 3rd quarter, and we didnt have a decent backup; we now have devine
latonul always chokes on the road---usf, wvu, rugters
wvu will go undefeated

Louisville and Rutgers will both copy the same defense USF used to shutdown your running game.
You will lose one of the aforementioned games With USF getting about a 50% shot of beating you again depending on how quick the new starters at OLB are.
WVU - 10-2
