2009 Pac 10 Football Predictions


Wednesday, June 17th, 2009

It’s a 3 team race for the Pac 10 title in 2009. If ever there is a time to knock USC off its perch atop the conference it’s this year. The Trojans have to replace their starting QB and a boatload on defense. The window of opportunity is small though, as Pete Carroll’s USC team always manages to re-load and be among the most talented teams in the country year in and year out. Oregon and Cal are the top challengers for USC’s throne this year; read on to see if we think they have enough to get it done.

2009 ACC Football Predictions


Saturday, June 13th, 2009

The ACC is a lot like the Big East in that they lack a true national title threat, but the competition within the conference will be fierce. Now, unlike the Big East, the ACC has several teams worthy of top 25 consideration and a couple that could crack the top 10. But the real competition within the ACC will be in the middle of the pack. We are pretty set on our top 3 and bottom 3, but there are 6 teams that could finish anywhere in the 4th-9th range. Read on for our breakdown of each team.

2009 Big East Football Predictions


Thursday, June 11th, 2009



rosters

The Big East is wide open this year. We could see any of the teams we have listed 1-4 winning the conference, and it wouldn’t at all be shocking to see Cincinnati or Connecticut as well. Each team in the conference has some major questions they need to answer, but each team also has bright spots and some great potential. Teams will beat up on each other and there are no gimme games on any team’s conference slate. In the end, we think West Virginia defeats Pitt on Nov. 27th to lock up the conference crown…but be prepared for any of these teams to make a run at the top of the Big East in 2009.

Big 12 Conference Football Predictions – 2009 Season


Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

We’ve started gazing into the crystal ball. Check out our Big 12 Conference football predictions for the upcoming 2009 season.


Champion: Oklahoma – The Sooners win their 8th Big 12th Championship in the last 11 years with an impressive win over Nebraska

South Division

  • 1. Oklahoma: Bob Stoops doesn’t run the table, but ends up being the only one-loss team in the South. Offense won’t be as explosive, but will still be very good. Defense will be great again if they can find replacements at safety.
  • T-2. Texas: Defense will be the Achilles heal for the Longhorns. Offense was solid again with Colt McCoy back, but they don’t get enough out of their ground game. Texas ends up with 2 conference losses.
  • T-2. Oklahoma St: Still not able to get over the hump.
  • 3. Texas Tech: The loss of Crabtree and Harrell takes its toll.
  • 4. Baylor: Robert Griffin has a great year, but Baylor still can’t find a way to beat the upper echelon teams.
  • 5. Texas A&M: The aggies finish the year on a dismal note. Mike Sherman is fired after just two seasons.

North Division

  • 1. Nebraska: The Cornhuskers win the North with 3 conference losses. They prove to be solid on defense, and they are able to win a lot of close games.
  • 2. Colorado: Going out on a serious limb here, but Dan Hawkins finally delivers what has been expected of him in Boulder. The Buffs return an experienced offensive line, and the offense finally starts to click.
  • T-3. Kansas: Keep in mind Kansas could easily win the Big 12 North this year, but the loss of three of their top five tacklers on defense proves to be costly. Todd Reesing returns to a dangerous offense when you throw in Kerry Meier, Dezmon Briscoe, and rising junior Johnathan Wilson forming a dangerous receiving corps.
  • T-3. Missouri: Mizzou struggles to thrive in a post-Chase Daniel era. Maclin was missed.
  • 4. Kansas St: Defense was awful last year, and it didn’t get much better this year. The Wildcats couldn’t find an answer at quarterback. I’m not sold on the Bill Snyder rejuvenation hype.
  • 5. Iowa State: The Cyclones start 2009 with their 3rd coach in 4 years. Coaching turnover is never good when you’ve consistently been a bottom dweller for recruiting. Iowa State wins only one Big 12 game.
