The Miami/Ohio Taint game will be an early litmus test. We'll see where the bear **** in the buckwheat regarding Harris and Pryor early on.
As for FSU, I think they're underrated, and will surprise after cutting a metric ton of dead weight from their coaching staff. That said, Ponder ain't winning the Hypesman unless they're in the title hunt in late November, which I think to be highly unlikely.
