I think OSU is a very good pick, however the Big10 is always a tough conference to go undefeated in..... OSU looked dominating to end the year and they are returning a lot, but they are also losing a lot. Same can be said with Penn State, PSU lost a good chunk of players, but if Vidal Hazleton signs with PSU, then PSU has a top 5 recruiting class so I think the Big10 might be up for grabs. Michigan also should be solid.
I think WVU is a VERY good pick for the national championship game. I dont think WVU is a top 2 team in the nation, however I think they have a favorable schedule. I think OSU is a much better team than WVU, but I would give the nod to WVU because of their schedule and conference.
I dont think any team from the SEC or ACC goes undefeated...... the conferences are just too balanced I think next year.
Notre Dame has all its hard games early..... but they have their hardest games, PSU and Michigan, at home and a cakewalk schedule after until potentially USC. I dont think ND goes undefeated...... but because the media loves them, even at 1 loss, they are still a contender.
Out of the Big12, I kinda like Texas also. With the exception of Vince Young, I dont think they really lost a ton to the NFL. Huff, yes, Scott, yes, but they have a good recruiting class and good players behind them. Also, I think Charles is going to have a great year at RB.
Those are my 4/5 favorites this year.
