A Way Too Early Football Prediction Post

Alright, know from the outset that this is a completely unnecessary blog post. Training camps for both college and the NFL haven't even started yet. But, that's what makes this fun.

College Football

We'll start with the big six conference rankings.

6b. Big East: The Big East is down yet again. Yes, there are some good teams here, but I really don't see them as much of a threat to the top five.

6a. Mountain West: That's right. Right now I have a non-BCS conference ranked ahead of a BCS conference.

5. ACC: The ACC is scary. I mean, it really isn't a good conference. Beyond Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech, UNC, and FSU, there isn't much here.

4. Big Ten: The Big Ten is adding a team next year, bringing their total up to twelve. I told you those guys up north couldn't count.

3. Pac-10: The Pacific coast conference has good teams. Unfortunately, USC, their flagship program, is now under a two-year bowl ban.

2. Big XII: This is the last year for the Big XII. Next year Colorado departs for the Pac 10 (with Utah) and Nebraska is running to the Big Ten.

1. SEC: Until someone knocks them off the top, there is no reason to pick against them.

Conference Winners:

Mountain West: TCU
Big East: UConn
ACC: Virginia Tech
Big Ten: Ohio State
Pac-10: Oregon
Big XII: Texas
SEC: Alabama

BCS Bowl Games:
Rose Bowl: Oregon vs. Wisconsin
Sugar Bowl: Georgia vs. TCU
Fiesta Bowl: Texas vs. Boise State
Orange Bowl: Virgina Tech vs. UConn
National Championship: Alabama vs. Ohio State

NFL PREDICTIONS:

AFC Championship Game:
Baltimore vs. Indianapolis

NFC Championship Game:
Atlanta vs. Dallas

Super Bowl:
Atlanta vs. Baltimore

Call us crazy, but a Matt Ryan versus Joe Flacco Super Bowl will be a lot of fun to watch.
