8. Ole Miss to compete for the SEC. I really like this team this season because of a relatively weak division (save for Florida), and the fact that I do think they can actually beat the Gators, though not every time out. Snead seems to have Tebow’s number and I see this team making the Sugar Bowl.

7. ACC’s – Virginia Tech. The Hokies had a good chance to repeat as ACC champs until they lost their starting HB for the season. They had a mediocre season finishing 9-4. This season 9-4 might win the ACC but will be no where near close to be in the top ten or the National Title game.They will need to beatAlabama, Miami, Georgia Techand Nebraska to even be consideredfor the title which they will be lucky to beat 3 of the 4.At best, Virginia Tech will fall to the Gator Bowl against the Big East or Notre Dame.

6. Big 10′s – Ohio State. The buckeyes have a good chance to make it to the National Title. They must go undefeated or lose a close one to a really good team like USC or Penn State and hope no one else goes undefeated. Above all, They need to beat USC when they visit in week 2 to establish they are ready for prime time with returning sophomore QB Terrell Pryor. They must avoid an upset loss to Minnesota and Penn State. If they miss the Title Game they definitely should make the the Rose bowl against the Pac Ten if they can defeat Penn State and send them to the Capital One Bowl against a SEC team.

5. Alabama. It looks like Alabama has a good shot at the national title game this season. The only real things that stand in the way are LSU, Tennessee, and Ole Miss. Still, this team could easily finish with two losses or less.

4. Pac10′s – USC. Big favorites to punch their ticket early to the BCS title game, pending no unexpected surprise losses to Stanford or Oregon State. Their toughest game will be against Ohio State early in the season. Their issue will be adapting a young offense to the pressure of prime time and running up the score board. There is no reason they should play in any other bowl game outside of the BCS championship unless they cant win the voters over from the Big 12. In that case they will fall to the Rose Bowl against the Big 10 winner which will probably be Ohio State, De Ja Vue anyone?

3. Oklahoma. Some of the best wide outs in college football, the returning Heisman champ at quarterback, and a polished team all around makes Oklahoma a sure contender for the BCS championship. The team’s biggest hurdle is fellow division mate, Texas.

2. Texas. The Longhorns are simply one of the best out there, and Colt McCoy should have a huge season, as he’s eyeing a Heisman. There aren’t many better defenses out there and Texas remains a favorite to make the title game.

1. Florida. As long as Tim Tebow is on the team, there’s no reason to discount this team’s ability. Almost all of the entire team last season (besides Harvin and Nelson) is back for another season, and Florida has the experience and the talent to go all away. The Gators are the favorites entering the season.
