I have been waiting for eternity it seems for this college football season to start. I spent a lot of time this summer reading everyone's threads and want to say thanks for the guys that contribute and make this site worthwhile year round. Look forward to the season and everyone's thoughts and comments.

Situational play for me on this game as Boise rolled in to Autzen last year and took the Ducks by surprise. Well, the Ducks have had all spring and summer long to think about that loss and to prepare, along with the cheap shots they took in the game. Oregon has the better QB in Masoli, as he is mobile and can do some amazing things on the offensive side of the ball backed by Blount at running back. I personally feel Boise rolls in to this game excited and happy to be playing the biggest opponent at home in their schools history. The sad thing is, Oregon will be ready to play football this time around as an underdog which they honestly should not be. I will take the team who is better on both sides of the ball, and remembers that loss and the cheap shots they took a year ago. I honestly would be staying away from this game if Oregon had won the game last year, but this time around, Boise does not sneak up on them.
Stanford -16.5<o></o>
I like my chances when WSU has had all spring and summer long to pick a QB and still has no clear cut winner, at least at the time of writing this. There is no offensive threat on the offensive side of the ball, and their defense is not going to be winning games anytime soon either. I do not believe that WSU has closed the gap from last year’s 58 point loss either. It’s a game on the road for Stanford, but WSU is in a world of problems and the hangover could have a lasting effect for the years to come. The talent level is not there, injuries or not. I am taking the better team, and the better coached team.
Wake Forrest -2.5<o></o>
Wake Forrest is a team that is not flashy at all, there games are boring and low scoring, but I have found myself over the last couple of years thinking, they must be well coached, cuz they find a way to win. I really like this team in a low scoring game if it comes down to it because they do not make mistakes, their defense gets after the ball and creates turnovers, they manage the game well, and have an expierenced QB in Skinner back for another season. I will take the team that I honestly feel is better in the trenches and can pull out a close win if it comes down to it.
Potential Games
Penn State -27
Georgia +6
Notre Dame -14
Minnesota -6.5
Illinois -7
