Here it is. Kick off is next weekend. Drink your beer, tune in your team, and talk smack here. Bama Tide is going to win the champs, just wanted to throw that out there and end all of your dreams early. Arguments are encouraged. Cool

(just keep it civil please, this is SimV still)

Easy week for the Gators. The spread is 35 over Miami Ohio in The Swamp.

Seminoles get no points over Samford (who?) even though it's a home game. I guess they're waiting to see what Jimbo Fisher can do before laying odds.

No points for Miami over FAMU even though it's a home game. That's just insulting. Miami by 14.

Lucky Bama gets to play Florida twice this year (Oct. 2 and Dec. 4). I almost hope you win the first one so the Gators can knock you out of national championship contention.

Florida 12-1
Alabama 12-1

Undefeated (again) Boise State routs Ohio State for the national championship!

Both FSU and Miami are playing non-Division 1A schools. Oddsmakers don't make point spreads in such situations.

If the Univ. of Miami can't beat FAMU by more than 14 points, it's going to be a long season in Coral Gables. Huh

This is almost certainly Bama's year. They've lost a fair bit on Defence, but the depth they have is such that it shouldn't be to much of an negative thing.
Where they do have it interesting is in a rather large screw up by the schedulers, that has left Bama facing SEC opponents for 7 straight weeks and 8 of its last 9 games. No other team has that glitch, add in Penn State, and the tides season is going to be a tough one. If they are going to fall anywhere this season its either going to be @Tennessee or @LSU. If they do win out and go undefeated I can honestly say they would deserve to be national champs.

The Buckeyes are talented and deep enough to run the table (including the BCS Championship) Cool

Bama VS San Jose State for game 1. And San Jose QB has been talking some bad trash!!! If Bama swamps them bad enough I will personally drive to San Jose State (it's about 8 minutes from my house) wearing my Bama jersey and do a quick lap through the halls before running for my life.

Here's Penn State's schedule:

* denotes home games.

Youngstown State*
Alabama
Kent State*
Temple*
Iowa
Illinois*
Minnesota
Michigan*
Northwestern*
Ohio State
Indiana
Michigan State*

The general mood up here on campus is one of uncertainty. Both of our QB's this year are inexperienced...so.....

Plus, we're playing our arguably toughest opponent very early (Alabama...obviously) and everyone is kind of hush-hush about that one. I think most people here know that it'll probably be a loss for us. Hopefully we'll at least put up a good fight.

I gotta root for Tide, I married an Alabama family. Being from Michigan I gotta shoot for them too...sorry...but being from Michigan I hope you destroy Ohio State!! Cool

Let them talk trash, this is as close as they will ever get to a national championship as they will get.
They should focus more on trying to beat Bama because there is every possibility that they could, No Ingram, possibly no Marcell Dareus, and a lot of new players. If ever there were a chance to beat a team this is it.
The same will go for Penn state. If they really focus on the football and not the talking, anything can happen.
Once the Tide are settled in and working as a unit in game situations, they will be very tough to stop.
