First off, let me say I'm a huge Miami Hurricane fan and have been since the Jimmy Johnson/Michael Irvin days. I grew up admiring the brash, trash talking program that has turned out more NFL players in the last 25 years than any other school. The U has been down for the past 6 years and let fellow sunshine state schools Florida and Florida St. pass them by. 2009 was supposed to be the year Miami turned the corner and returned to dominance. They started out strong, but ended up fading down the stretch. 2010 will be different. They are loaded at the skill positions and the defense is grooming the next Warren Sapp, Ray Lewis, Corez Kennedy, and Ed Reed as we speak. There's too much at stake for Miami to come up short. The game is more important to them and truth be told Ohio St. is a little overrated at #2. I understand the rationale, they smashed Oregon in the Rose Bowl last year and they return starting quarterback Terrelle Pryor. It won't be enough however and the Canes will prevail 31-26. Here's a few bonus picks from Cleavie the Greek:
Washington over Syracuse. I know I sound like a homer, but if the Dawgs don't beat the Orangemen in the shadow of Lake Washington on Saturday I may never watch them again.
Alabama over Penn St. Penn St. starts a true freshmen at quarterback and they're not playing Youngstown St. this week. The game is at Tuscaloosa and Alabama smells another national championship. They can't afford the loss.
Packers over the Eagles. Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it. All the McNabb detractors in Philly that wanted Kevin Kolb to start will get to see what an NFL quarterback starting his first game looks like. Packers roll.
