I gotta agree w/ya Brad, I laughed when I saw USC in the top 5, let alone ranked #1. They might have the talent to be there, but Kiffin has literally accomplished NOTHING. He'll flop big time and I can't wait to watch it.

Similarly, I think Georgia is way overrated. Yeah there schedule is a gift from God but Richt isn't an elite coach and will never get them over the hump. They'll never win a national championship and I highly doubt an SEC one w/him at the helm, even with the advantage of a cupcake schedule.

I'm confident that South Carolina will represent the East in Atlanta and am oscillating b/w LSU or Arkansas to represent the West/win it and go on to play for a national title. The Hawgs, where I have just begun studying for my PhD, have LSU & Bama in Fayetteville.

Prediction for the National Championship game if you put a gun to my head now:

Oklahoma vs LSU
