Somehow I suspect Alabama might have some involvement in the SEC picture.

I'm picking Florida to win it all, considering that they have far and away the best team.

Well for this kind of bet, you either pick Florida, or the entire field, any other choice is unfair.

Florida's posted odds are 40% (first site I checked), and the entire remaining field has been given 60%. So technically I'm more likely to be wrong than right, that's a little bit of a limb!

I really really hate the whole THE Ohio State University shit.

which is unfortunate as a Miami fan because "da U" gets thrown back in my face, but at least that's different and I don't like that either anyway.

I thought Okie State had a good look at the championship this year. Whoops.

Okie light is a paper tiger. They have some good players on offense, but Robinson is over hyped and their defense, as evidence over the weekend, is suspect.

At least the have a man at the helm.

Suspect defenses aren't usually an issue in the Big 12, and are often encouraged. I thought they could out offense the rest of the bunch.

Florida this year is just one of those teams that looks too good to pick against, reminds me a bunch of the 95 huskers as much as it pains me to say as a pretty big tebow hater.

Sorry Tom, but this article explains exactly how I felt after watching Ohio State's game.

This is the most lopsided favorite in college football I have ever noticed of any year.

Yeah and from looking at the top teams and schedules, this is a really crappy year to try and make it with 2 losses. Not that 2 losses is an easy challenge to overcome any year, but in particular the setup this year looks extra bad. It's not even a really great year to make it in with 1 loss. Fortunately for Ohio St though, losing to USC is one of the better teams to lose to with still having a shot.

Hey! We knocked the shit out of a very tough Illinois State team this weekend.

I like Zook and he's a great recruiter, but I'm still not sold on him as a head coach. We did go to the Rose Bowl two years ago, but haven't done much since.

Zook seems friendly and all the players like him. I remember when i was at UF for undergrad i saw him in the dining hall with the athletes a bunch. Saw him walking down the street with the starting LB and safety holding an ice cream cone laughing together. Kinda funny scene
