"Bold Predictions" are just another way of saying "we are running out of ideas over here on things to write about."

Please sweet baby Jesus, give me some football to watch already.

Here’s my bold prediction: I think Notre Dame gets smoked in the playoff. Good, that’s what they get for playing a weak a$$ schedule.

Notre Dame lol

I turned it off when Texas was not in top 6.

Hoover is a really bad QB. Indiana is going to be wondering why they just didn't keep Mendoza's little bro instead, or you know, develop one in house.

This is quite the take. Hoover is going to be good to great in that system.

It’s fascinating—just as the whole country vastly overrated Texas to start last year given the youth and relative lack of talented depth, I think a LOT of national pundits are underrating us this year. Maybe people feel kinda snakebit after last year. But you cannot look at this roster and actually believe there are six better teams in the country. That’s just foolishness.

I like our ranking there. Gives motivation and get to be the hunter over the hunted. We won’t open the season that low but I wish we would!

Yes for sure not 7, but I think we all are perturbed and rather it be this way at the same time.  Bulletin board material!.

Why? I don't believe in all that paranoid snake bite stuff. We didn't lose last year because we were ranked #1, we lost because we played a great team at their place and our guys didn't execute very well on O.
