#1 again, unsurprising

Surprised you have Notre Dame-USC so low. Is it because it's played every year?

It's a great game, but if both teams aren't great, a little of the shine comes off of it. I also project USC as a 4/5 loss team so that also takes away from it a little. You could argue it should be ahead of WVU/PSU and I wouldn't argue, but from a pure atmosphere perspective, it's going to be crazy in Morgantown for that game, and it'll just be meh at USC IMO, if they are a 4 loss team going into the game.

Interesting, if that's the case, likely means Boise State vs. Oregon is the CBS 3:30 game. Unless CBS goes with Michigan State vs. MD or ISU vs. Iowa(which I can possibly see). It's hard not knowing the draft selection process. I was under the assumption that CBS got the 2nd selection after FOX each week, but that might not be the case, because CU vs. Neb is clearly the 2nd best game to take.

Game is gonna be a ratings monster. 12-13 million+ not out of the question IMO.

Not sure what he is talking about again though. None of their OOC games last season were worth a damn

Yeah, I don't know either. The last two years have been pretty terrible. But that's what happens when you replace UCLA with Hawaii and East Carolina.

Ohio State has a down year too (think this was supposed to be a Georgia year but got messed up with expansion). At least the addition of the PAC teams make it a little more interesting then they get back to their annual one tough ooc the following season

Yeah, I'm not about to ask "where is South Carolina-Clemson?" because they will most likely be a couple of .500 teams at that point, and nobody will care outside of the Carolinas.

That was an oversight on my part. I do think South Carolina will probably take a step back. If it was at the beginning of the year that would probably give it more interest/intrigue. I'd probably have that at #24/#25.

Yeah, it would maybe have more juice at the beginning of the season but that'll never happen.
