I figured Clemson for a 9-3 kind of year, which is still possibly, but they look more like 10-2 or 11-1 today of course. I agree about losing the QB and finding a pretty solid replacement.
Michigan looks worse than I figured, and I thought they were over hyped, but would be 9-3ish also, which means about 12th in the polls end of regular season.
NCSU was my pick for under ranked, and they still have a shot (Clemson this weekend). They are a decent squad but not great, and that early lose to USCe was bizarre.
