I just wonder if having a Sugar Daddy for NIL makes a huge difference.  I think it would at an "Oklahoma State", but perhaps with established programs, it's a lot less important.  You need decent NIL to compete of course.  Maybe paying some 5 star a million bucks versus half a million doesn't quite pan out that often.

So, can a lesser program "buy" an NC?  Oregon is one example saying "Yes, maybe".

that's Brandon Walker from Barstool Sports picks. Brandon Walker is literally retarded and basically dead wrong about everything, so basically none of this will happen.

We have some notion as to who the best teams should be, but some other teams will just be INTERESTING, which to me, means they could end up 11-1 or 6-6, or worse.  Mine include:

*  *  *

FSU - Some team in the top ten is going to fade, maybe them.

Georgia Tech - Their fans are optimistic this season for some reason.
Cincydawg, you know more than me.
I went to the Pitt @ FSU game last year. FSU wants to go up two scores and take the air out of the ball. FSU has a defense.
First drive on Saturday, FSU took the ball down field for the first score against Georgia Tech, and decided on Drive No. 1 to go up by almost two scores by scoring a two-point conversion. FSU didn't have enough defense to take the air out of the ball, and didn't have enough offense, to carry out the mission. Georgia Tech scored 7 on its first drive. The struggle was on.
The FSU punting team has some work to do because it could have pinned Pitt deep, but the ball bounced into the end zone. I was impressed by your analysis. I thought sure FSU would be a Top 10 team, but a usual middling opponent took the wind out of their sails.

I think Miami and PSU are the most interesting in terms of, "how many chances do you require?" 

If this isnt a playoff year for them,.please get out of my face forever until you make a change

I don't know any more than anybody of course (except the "experts).  Each year I think a handful of teams are "interesting" because they have such a range of possible outcomes, anywhere from 11-1 to 7-5, or more, for example.  We have a pretty good list here, I think.  I would add GaTech just because of their win, though I frankly expect them to lose to someone they shouldn't and finish maybe 7-6.  They might be a 9-3 team though.  It's hard to tell of course with only one opponent played.

They BARELY beat FSU of course, a team everyone now is very down on.
