1. FLORIDA ST - With 13 returning starters(7 on offense, 6 on defense), and the best QB(player) in all of college football, it seems like this team will be locked and loaded again.
2. ALABAMA - They have 12 returning starters which include Heisman candidate, T.J. Yeldon, WR, Amari Cooper, and they are bringing 5 back on defense. With the best coach in college, and FSU transfer QB, Jacob Coker, who is supposed to be very good, this team should win the SEC.
3. OREGON - Marcus Mariota will probably win the Heisman this year, in my opinion, and with 13 returning starters(8 on offense, 5 on defense) I expect this team to be very good again.
4. OKLAHOMA - I really think this team has a lot of confidence coming into this season after beating an SEC top dog. That game may not have meant anything to Alabama, but it did to the Sooners. This team has a ton of confidence in their QB, Trevor Knight, as well. They should, too because I think he's going to shine and their schedule is very favorable. They could lose one game and still get this spot, which I think could happen. Oklahoma St just lost too many players overall, so I think this is the Sooner's year for their conference, although I see them getting smoked by Florida St in these playoffs.
COLLEGE FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP
FLORIDA ST vs ALABAMA
I'm taking the Seminoles all the way in this one. I know that Saban has never lost a championship, but it's bound to happen sometime, due to the fact that his team is always sniffing it. I think Jimbo, who is the second best behind Saban, has built this program up to a supreme powerhouse. They have been getting the kind of talent that they did in the early and late 90's, and I just don't see anybody beating them this year. I also think that betting the Noles to win the title at 4.5-5/1 is a great investment. Enjoy the season. I know I will when FSU repeats.
