* This year’s race for the title should be fascinating. There are no obvious choices for the title game as there have been in the past. Remember, USC and Texas started the 2005 season 1 and 2 and finished that way. In 2004, USC and Oklahoma debuted at number 1 and 2 in the polls and played for the Crystal Football.
* Since the inception of the BCS, at least one of the two top teams in the initial Coaches Poll has been in the Championship Game. So Ohio State and Texas would seem to have a leg up, if you believe in streaks.
* I like Ohio State and Florida State to play in the Championship game. Ohio State is loaded on offense and the defense will develop quickly. The Noles lost their focus last season once they secured the birth in the ACC Title game and went on a three game skid to end the regular season. As for the Orange Bowl, you knew once it went to kicks, FSU was going to lose.
* These are re-treds from last year but still true:
I am sick of T.O. Go blow out a knee or something and let ESPN move on.
The number of games on TV is staggering. I’ll have four going at once and it still won’t be enough.
* I like the fact that LSU has stayed off the police blotter when a number of other schools have had off the field issues.
* Blue Moon and Hoegaarden are damn good beers.
* The media is going to get lock jaw this season from smoking Notre Shame’s pole all season.
* I think Notre Shame’s Brady Quinn will win the Heisman. All he needs to do is win 9 games. The media will be smoking his pole too much to notice that Adrian Peterson and Troy Smith are more deserving. Lots of pole smoking by the media this season.
* I think LSU will go 9-3 and end up in the Liberty Bowl.
* I like Auburn to beat Georgia in Atlanta for the SEC Title.
* As long as John David Booty starts for USC, the Trojans have no chance of winning the Pac-10 or appearing in the BCS Title game.
* ESPN’s Kirk Herbstriet loves “the U.” He loved them last year and he’s on the bandwagon again picking them to play in the BCS Championship.
* Is Beano Cook dead? (As a side note, did you know his real name is Carroll Hoff Cook?)
* Go to Buffalo Wild Wings. You’ll like it.
* I will be busy this fall dealing with a-holes. (A-hole #1, A-hole #2, A-hole #3)
* Check out a big win for yours truly. 1-0 at the Louisiana Supreme Court.
