Nebraska and Colorado

Nebraska is super interesting for sure, because they just might be way better than any of us think. 

Colorado is interesting because of Prime. most CFB fans of other teams will be watching hoping he crashes and burn. and he probably will this year. they were so god awful on both lines of scrimmage last year- hard to see them drastically improving both lines in one off-season.

I hopin Prime is the first coach fired

Miami

They could be really good or just what they've been for a long time. 

agreed. Miami could be really good. ACC is the weakest of the 4 conferences this year, Cam Ward is really good, and it's Miami....they always have great athletes on the roster.

I have zero faith in Mario Cristobal though.

The Colorado/Prime story, to me, is mostly over.  His "antics" or whatever don't play very well today, to the extent he causes any.  He's just a coach, of a team that could well be 3-8ish (again).  I guess I'm mildly interested and could get more so if the Biffs upset a couple early.

The Blue Blood teams that have been down are interesting, USCw is even ranked now I think.  Nobody has mentioned Notre Dame, I guess we all expect them to be 10-2 or 9-3 and kind of just another petty good team.  OU?  Nobody much talks about them.

The G6 team that makes the Twelve is interesting.  

Maybe.  I hope Texas and every Big Ten team is thinking this.

I doubt Texas players and coaches think anything like this.  They would assess based on film and returning players.  How Michigan might finish is irrelevant of course.  But for me, I could see a drop to 8-5 worst case, or 12-1, a pretty wide spread.

Who are the least interesting teams in 2024?

I'd say Ohio State and UGA.  They are pretty much locks to be good and playoff teams, even at 10-2.  Then you have teams like Vandy pretty much locks to be bad.

The games are interesting, for sure, the teams in my view are not.  The range of expected outcomes is pretty narrow.  An "interesting team", to me, is one where their final record COULD be 8-5 or 12-1, a la Michigan.  If UGA goes 10-2, it's not really all that interesting, or unexpected, to your average fan.  If they went 8-5, fans would view them as a pretty bad bust, but it seems unlikely.
