Georgia has a tough schedule, but they should contend. They were young last year and have a LOT of talent coming back.
My sleeper pick is Oklahoma. They were just as young as UGA last year and just about as talented. Plus, their schedule is more favorable, which could help them move up from #5.
LSU will lose several games this year because of bonehead moves by Les Miles (same bonehead moves he made last year but overcame it with Saban's talent).
If Alabama can beat LSU by 100, then they will beat them by 100. Talking trash at SEC media day was a bad move by Miles. One of only two coaches in D-1A history to be outcoached by Jack Bicknell III should not be talking trash to the guy who just landed the #1 recruiting class in the country.
USC will do well because of favorable media coverage and no conference title game. Might get in, but the Pac-10 is improving and they might lose to UCLA.
Lum, I sure hope you are wrong about Ohio St. I really don't want to suffer through another title game with them in it. Maybe the voters will wise up this year.
