2007-2008 Bowl Projections Take Two

From the blog:

In The Bleachers College Football Blog

Wednesday, November 14, 2007

Here is my second shot at projecting the bowls. The Pac-10 will probably not have enough teams to fill all of their slots as well as the MAC. As more games are played the bowl picture should get a little clearer.

One note, these projections are based on the standings now and how I think they will play out throughout the rest of the season. They are not solely based on the standings right now. I also tried to no pick teams with only 5 wins, but if I thought they had a good chance of getting to 6, I included them.

The best way for Florida to show out is to have two Florida teams competing in Charlotte - FSU who had dissentegrated this year and USF who has let down this year (only observed by those in power).

Bulls get it done here 28 - 17.

This would put us on the map, especially a win.  Big 3 goes away in one fell swoop.  That would be a magical year with that win.

Our program would take off in terms of recruits.

Bulls would win this one by 13 easily.  FSU is damaged, broken, and bruised (severely) this year.  They will have 3rd and 4th string in today at 12 noon. 

Bulls 3rd and 4th string are much better than FSU.

Bulls beat FSU - 38 - 17.

FSU is very talented, especially on defense.  Their issues are more coaching and mental than pure athletic.  FSU has depth, although nothing like they did 10 years ago.  Further, they would be pumped up playing this game.  IMO it would take a huge effort to win against FSU anywhere.  If the game were in Jax, then you can expect there to be a significant FSU homefield advantage.

As for the Big 3 going away, no chance.  You are talking about teams that have 9 national titles between them, numerous conference titles and national cred.  That will not go away in one season, or two.  We are talking about a decade or more of sustained excellence (9+ wins a year and being ranked every year and multiple conference titles) to even deserve to say that as a program we are anywhere near the big 3.  We may have a better team this year than FSU or Miami, but this one year does not make us even with them as a program.
