College Football Preview

Sorry for the break, but I'm back now. Also, follow Wolfpack basketball games( and occasionally football and volleyball) here with live updates.

Football season is among us at last. And I'm not talking about the Revis Circus and the latest Favre episodes. College football is in full swing, as preseason polls have just been released and two-a-days are ending. Here are some of my predictions and things to watch.

My Preseason Rankings-

1. Alabama

2. Ohio St

3. Boise State

4. Oklahoma

5. Florida

6. VT

7. Miami

8. Texas

9. Iowa

10. USC

2 Surprise Teams to watch for in the BCS

Wisconsin- Everyone is talking about Ohio St and Iowa in the Big Ten. Get to know the Badgers! John Clay is a top 10 RB in the country and there is plenty of upperclassmen on the defense.

UNC- Has 6 preseason All Americans on the defensive side of the ball, which is sure to help for the bid to win the ACC

Names to know:

Kellen Moore-QB-BSU- Can Moore lead the #3 ranked Broncos to the big stage? He has all the talent to.

Von Miller-LB--Texas A&M- The best LB in the Big 12, if not the country( compared to Lance Briggs)

Mark Herzlich-LB-Boston College- Cancer survivor, still has a huge heart and 2008 ACC defensive player of the year.

Marcell Dareus-DT-Bama- Projected top 5 pick, and will try to anchor #1 Alabama's defense.

Ryan Williams-RB-VT- Broke ACC Frosh running yards record and will try to add on to it this year.

Must Watch four games:

Oct 2- FLA vs BAMA: Fight for the SEC crown and possibly BCS championship berth on the line.

Sept 6- VT vs BSU- Huge opening game on labor day weekend, with two top 10 teams squaring off.

Sept 4-Oregon St vs TCU- If TCU can win, they control their own destiny to another BCS game.

Nov 20-Ohio St vs Iowa- The winner will be probably smelling roses, if not better.

My BCS bowl predictions

Sugar- Bama vs Pitt

Orange- UNC vs Oklahoma

Fiesta- Florida vs Miami

Rose- Iowa vs Oregon

BCS- BSU vs Ohio st
