2009 Thoughts and Predictions

1. Florida’s Tim Tebow will win the Heisman and will go down as the greatest college football player of all time.

2. Texas and OU will both beat Oklahoma State, sparing all of us from another 2008 disaster.

3. Notre Dame will win 9 games due to a fairly weak schedule. Notre Dame fans will proclaim them “back” and will be outraged when they aren’t selected for a BCS bowl.

4. Ole Miss and Oklahoma State will compete for the title of most over hyped team of 2009.

5. Southern Cal won’t have the chance to approach the Rose Bowl about getting out of their going there for the 900th year in a row. Instead they will beat Nebraska in the Holiday Bowl in front of 14 USC fans as the biggest bandwagon in the nation is evacuated.

6. Missouri will go back to their rightful place as a totally average program.

7. The horrible term “BCS Buster” will finally be laid to rest after Boise St. makes a BCS bowl again.

8. Michigan will pack Ford Field with 60,000 fans when they are selected to play in the Motor City Bowl. Fuck.

9. Bobby Bowden will cry about his wins that are being taken away. He already pulled a bullshit move with the Samford wins. Then again he hasn’t really coached a game since 1987.

10. There will be 3 players invited to the Heisman award ceremony. They’ll also be the same 3 that were there in 2008.

11. Penn State will be 3-0 with the average score being 63 – 7 after their 3rd game. We’ll hear their idiot fans talking about how they get no respect.

12. Gary Danielson will attempt to tell us why the SEC should hold the 12 top rankings in the coach’s poll. We get it Gary, ABC/ESPN let you walk and now you have a bug up your ass. Stop being a douche.

13. Oklahoma and Ohio St. will both make a BCS bowl game. Both will win those bowl games.

14. Nobody will care about the Big East and only 7 more will care about the ACC. A total of 56 people will watch the Orange bowl when Rutgers and VT square off.

15. The MAC will send three teams to bowl games. And they will lose all of those bowl games.

16. SEC and Big 12 fans will bitch and complain that is isn’t fair they have a championship game. They still won’t realize it was just a money grab and other conferences shouldn’t be forced into a title game.

17. The “pre-game handshake” will last 1 season and most teams won’t do it. The last thing I want to see is Ohio St./Michigan, Bama/Auburn or Texas/OU shaking hands prior to kick off. Pussies.

18. Utah and Utah fans will be crying about something.

19. The curse of Lou Holtz and his pep talks will live on. Unless ESPN got rid of him and I am not aware of it.

20. I will hope that Mark May dies no less than 14 times. By the end of week 1.

21. Beano Cook will pick Penn State to play for the national title.

22. Michigan State fans will run their mouths like mad this year knowing their short winning streak over Michigan is about to come to an abrupt halt.

23. The BigXII North will once again play second fiddle to the BIGXII South. Nebraska would finish 4th in the South.

24. The Pac-10 will catch shit all year long but some team from there will put together a quiet 9 win season and thump someone in a shitty bowl game to get to 10 wins.

25. PAC10 fans will cry “east coast bias”, SEC fans will cry “ESPN/ABC bias” despite ESPN running a ton of SEC games, non-SEC fans will cry “CBS bias” and Maryland fans will just cry.

26. One LS2 member will proclaim TCU a top 4 team at some point during the season.

27. Lee Corso will pick less than 50% of the onsite games correct. “Herby” will still be a fucking asshole.

28. Big 6 Conference winners: Florida (E), Alabama (W), Florida Overall; Texas (S), Nebraska (N), Texas Overall; California; Penn State; Rutgers; FSU (A), VT (C), VT Overall.

29. BCS Bowls:

BCS: Florida over Texas
Rose: Cal over Penn State
Fiesta: Oklahoma over Boise St.
Sugar: Ohio State over Alabama
Orange: Virginia Tech over Rutgers

30. The Curse will be broken.
