Wake up dp...time to get this season started....!!

Barn vs Huskies - A shootout in the making with two great QBs. Everyone thinks that Washington is going to win because Auburn loses too much on D. But my feeling....a rebuilt SEC defense is better than the best defense in the Smack 10. War Birds 55 Muts 49 in a wild one

Tide vs Red Birds - Like I said a while back, this game might have been interesting if ol Lamar would have hung around. Without him, Louisville went from slight chance to NO chance. Bama 48 UL 17

Meeechigan vs Irish - Looks like a pretty even game here. I think ol Patterson ends up shredding the Irish secondary and jumps early into the Heisman talk. Wolves 37 Catholics 24

Canes vs LSU - I like Miami's LBs and Secondary, they might be the best in the nation. LSU just don't have the star power of teams from the days of yore and I'm not sold on ol coach O yet as the front man. I think Miami rolls and Orgeron finds himself on the hotseat early. Canes 34 LSU 13

Va Tech vs FSU - This looks like pretty good game. But VT has a pretty good QB. Noles need to get off to a good start, or there's gonna be some early grumbling down in Tally. But I think the Hokes win
Jokies 28 FSU 20

Volunqueers vs Mountaineers - Not a good start for Pruitt. He's gonna turn Tenny around, but it won't look like it in this game. WV has a reeeeally good O and I can't name one single player on UT's O. Mountain Men 59 Vols 24

Us vs Them - Ok, Reddawg educated me on the fact that AP is a pretty decent lower division team. So I'm not going with a complete massacre here. But the difference will be their really light DL going up against Godzilla, Rodan, King Kong and others on our OL. Too much depth, too much size and strength. They might score once or twice in the first half to make it uncomfortably interesting on our newly rebuilt secondary, but by mid-third quarter, the ground-n-pound takes over and their D-line will need a MASH Unit before it's over. UGA 52 Govs 13

Okay, Darin I'll take the bait, I'll make some picks. I agree with all of yours but I differ on 2 picks. After the end of last year, I don't trust Old Gussie to not wet the bed in a big game away from the ugliest village on the plains. We know personally about Petersons ability while at Boise to get them ready for a big season opening game. I say Washington 31 Aubie 21.
I also disagree on the Hokies and Criminoles. I think FSU will win a squeaker. Every time it seems VT has turned the corner for me, they seem to crap themselves in a big game. I say FSU 28 VT 17. On a side note do any of you know what a Hokie is?

What is a "Hokie"?

In the 1890s, a student named O.M. Stull, Class of 1896, won a $5 prize for coming up with a new spirit cheer, now known as "Old Hokie." The original went:

Hoki, Hoki, Hoki, Hy.
Techs, Techs, V.P.I.
Sola-Rex, Sola-Rah.
Polytechs - Vir-gin-ia.
Rae, Ri, V.P.I.


Later, an "e" was added to "Hoki" to make "Hokie," and "Team! Team! Team!" was attached to the end.

Methinks Notre Dame beats Michigan but otherwise agree.
Dont think Aubie v.Wash is as high-scoring though but outcome about right.....although Mercedes Benz Stadium is a haunted house of sorts for Aubie
