"Steveo's Salvos" - September 2010 Edition "Salvos" is presented as the editorial content of CollegeFootballFan.com focusing on current issues surrounding college football and news about some of the teams on the CFF schedule this year. Originally from a newsletter, this web site, CollegeFootballFan.com, has evolved. Predictions - We'll throw some things out just to be different than the traditional sports publications you'll read: Boise state will be the true BCS buster and win the National Championship. They will go undefeated. They will play the winner of the Texas-Oklahoma game for the title. The winner of that game finishes undefeated and beats Nebraska in the Big 12 final. Ohio State will lose along the way when either Wisconsin or Iowa shuts down Terrelle Pryor during his worst performance of the season. Alabama will lose their traditional Iron Bowl game to Auburn dropping from first in the poll for the first time in 2010. Among the teams we will see: Virginia Tech won't win the ACC. North Carolina will get hit with more suspensions due to off the field violations. Rutgers will lose to at least four other Big East schools to finish 7-5. Penn State will lose to Alabama and Ohio State while Joe wins #400 at Minnesota. Illinois will match last season's three wins and Ron Zook will be somebody's coordinator in the Mid American Conference in 2011. Northwestern will win eight games and play in the Insight Bowl where they will defeat Kansas for their first bowl win in a long time. Temple will win the MAC and go to its second consecutive Bowl. Al Golden will be offered several big time HC positions but he'll stay with the Cherry and White until JoePa makes his move away from Dear old White and Blue. Villanova comes up short of this year's FCS Championship losing to James Madison in the national semi-finals. Navy goes 13-0 while Rick Dobbs wins the Heisman Trophy. They'll finish 10th in the nation due to a lackluster schedule. Their toughest win will be a 56-49 OT win over SMU. The Ponies will finish second in a very competitive Conference USA. Navy will defeat Notre Dame again who will finish 7-5 as the Irish will have QB problems. Pitt will defeat WVU in the backyard Brawl for the Big East title by one point as both they and UConn will defeat Cincinnati who will not challenge them for the this year's title. UConn's only two losses will be against the two teams we will see them play - Pitt and WVU. The Florida Gators will shut out the South Carolina Gamecocks so we will be able to say we've seen the Old Ball Coach get whitewashed in two of the only three shutout he ever suffered. Lehigh will defeat Lafayette in their 146th meeting to win the Patriot League and go to the FCS play-offs. Ohio State will beat Michigan by a field goal as the Wolverines play with joyful emotional after their former coach, Rich Rodriguez, is released before the last time the regular season rivals meet for the last time for the final game of their regular season. Navy will defeat Army who will have another losing season. Mt. Union will defeat Wisconsin-Whitewater for the D-3 Championship. In the Holiday Bowl, we will see Washington play Nebraska. In the Fiesta Bowl, the Texas-Oklahoma loser will play Florida. Of course, this is more based on what we'd like to see happen, and less on what we think will happen.
Watch for more Salvo updates throughout the season! - Steve Koreivo, ed.
