Agree. WVU's defense is down right nasty. Know it's a small sample size vs Ga Southern. But this is the best D WVU's ever had. If they can get their QB to improve on short & intermediate routes instead of overthrowing everything, they can be dangerous. The Special Teams also look much improved. One of the best kickers in the NCAA & a top 5 secondary. True freshman Jovon Durante also making an early name for himself at WR.
A play you should look at is Ohio +3.5 at home vs Marshall. Marshall should've lost last week to Purdue. Their QB threw 2 pick 6's to blow that game and the cover. Purdue's offense moved the ball at will. Ohio will run the ball on Marshall. They've had success on them in the past. Marshall's schedule is the weakest in the nation. I think this line is begging for Marshall money. Marshall has a history of struggling on the road & vs Ohio. Their new QB will have some miscues in his first road match. Ohio should win this game ML 34-29.

love all the discussion here...the winning picks are just a bonus.
the network that holds the rights to college football in canada aired a grand total of zero college football games on opening weekend. they advertised the osu game all week only to pull it so we could have 3 of the 5 channels dedicated to canada vs uruguay in fiba basketball. just disgusting.
threads like yours and megalocks are greatly appreciated.

this is the kind of response I get when you start telling the truth.....
Clemson Clowns?
Auburn and the Clemson Clowns have played 3 times in the last years.....and the Clemson Clowns have won 2 out of 3. So yeah, I guess we are clowns.
Hey guess what! Next season we play again.......and this time Watson is coming and he will light that scoreboard up in Auburn like a Christmas tree and whip Auburns assss once again.
truth hurts bud
only 1 game and this is a nobel post !!!!

acoustix - Are you a Clemson fan? This Clemson team is really good. The last few years this team has knocked off some big time teams. But you know what separates this team from the last few seasons? Watson.... Watson is the best QB in the country IMO and with him on the field this team can beat anyone. That's the difference....that's football in a nutshell, when you have a great QB you can go places, when you don't you can have a nice little team, but never truly great.
The game of football regardless of what others might tell you is won and lost at the QB position.... Yes having a great defense is awesome...yes having a great RB or WR are a big bonus. But nobody on the filed touches the ball more than the QB. Why do you think it is that small teams or not traditional powerhouses like N. Illinois or Boise st of the past could compete? They had great QB's....Why is this a great example? Look at Virginia tech over the last 5-6 years... historical a very solid defense, but they finish 7-5, 6-6...Why is that? they have NO QB.... Why do you think Florida has struggled over the last 4-5 years ( besides having mushead as coach )???? They have had no QB. Look at Texas.
I will say this until the end of time.... Either you have a QB...or you don't. The difference between a 6-6 season and a 10-2 season is not the play of a running back...it's the QB.
rant over....that was all free....

I still think the SEC is the best Overall conference...But not as much as you or other " SEC " guys think.
The ACC looked pretty good last year running all over the SEC winning 6 out of 9 matchups.
UNC and USCjr are both bad teams for both leagues. UNC was picked 5th in their division and so was S.C.
I think G.T, Clemson and FSU can compete vs any teams from the SEC. Most people consider Auburn as the 2nd best team in the SEC ( I still think they could make a argument of being #1)...and let's be honest here. You take away all those dumb mistakes that normally dont happen and they play that true freshman QB the WHOLE game, Louisville beats Auburn, I think that was pretty obvious....and what is Louisville?
The SEC is just like any other conference really.... you got really good teams at the top. Ok teams in the middle and bad teams at the bottom. [/Quo
Boom who are the OK teams in the middleand who are the teams on the top ?

Funny how u forget Auburn defeated Clemson what 13 straight before that 2-1 Clemson swing.What's the diff in Clemson greatest team to Auburn's words team? see 2012 the answer is 5pts...Watson might be the single best player in the country ,but he is the Darren McFadden of college football.Until he can prove he can stay healthy a consec month I'm done with him.GL

Warcam- I am an SEC guy for the most part and usually bash the ACC but Auburn did not impress at all- yes it was the first game but it was the first game for the Cards as well- The Auburn defense has been its achilles heel for several years now and they did not look good Saturday- Clemson is very dangerous team and will be the class of the ACC by far- the ACC looks weak this year but that Clemson team is legit
Bubba,I really think you underestimate Petrino because he is a helluva college football coach.U must think Louisville is garbage because I assure u they aren't.That Qb from Louisville is an incredible athlete.I'm not worried AT ALL about JJ..No,he isn't Watson,but he can throw the ball very good & expect to see much better play at of him.The defense is much improved.If u can see that well we can just disagree.I really think u underestimate Petrino.Anytime u get a win over Petrino outside his 1st year you appreciate it.Louisville will win 9 or even 10 games.I think Clemson having that stud out will be enough to keep Louisville in the Clemson game..Let's be honest I'm a huge Dabo fan,but Petrino at this time is just a better coach than Swinney.Don't get that confused I think Dabo will win a National Championship..( perhaps at Bama maybe at Clemson)..I think when its all over Dabo will have the better career,but right now Petrino is the better coach IMO.I really do think Watson is one of the best players in the country,but it doesn't matter if U CANT STAY HEALTHY..some players like Darreñn McFadden in the NFL,Dominique Cruz in the UFC are injury prone Watson is one of those guys.Doesn't make him a bad kid and I would love to see them scalp the Noles,but they just couldn't do even with last year's local garbage man as the Qb for FSU..I've always liked Clemson.It would shock u how similar the campus,city is like Auburn.It was called Auburn's sister school for years.That's a huge injury too..Although I like Boom and realize it aint mutual and respect his opinion I disagree with his Muschamp assessment..The guy is a workaholic,his players love him,a relentless recruiter and ultimately I thinking he is Auburn's missing piece for a 3rd trip to the Natty for Auburn is 6 years..I was more upset with Auburn's conditioning at the end of the game.I will be the 1st to admit Auburn looked more like a #15 team Sat,but at the end of the day they got the victory and my Auburn/Bama 2gm6pointer POPPED...Blowout,U really think Auburn's defense hasn't improved?Louisville literally could not run the ball the 1st half...ThatvSC/NC game was maybe one of the worse games I've seen since Tommy Rees was Qb for Irish vs FSU back a few years back..Chizik called a good game defensively ,but man that was an ugly game to watch.SCar I suspect will field a much better team by season's end.I like Spurrier.He has done an awesome job at Scar.I will go so far to say Scar has the best fans in the country next to Nebraska..No,Packers it won't be a failure if he doesn't win an SEC title in Columbia.Hope we get him a few more years.Heck,he has a National Title,2 appearances,6 SEC Titles and 8 East Titles...WTF else do u want?They love him in the SEC...Im betting Louisville ML next Thurs.I think they beat Clemson...Then I don't think Clemson loses another game...Best of Luck to all.
