The ACC

With Boston College having lost quarterback Matt Ryan to the NFL, the ACC just may be wide open. Coach Jagodzinski is confident that senior QB Chris Crane will be more than ready to step up to the challenge. Clemson is a favorite for many people’s 2008 college predictions. Not only do they have a future NFL prospect in Quarterback Cullen Harper, but the dynamic rushing duo of C.J. spiller and James Davis as well. Could this be their breakout season? Florida State comes back with loads of talent yet remains questionable. The academic scandal from last year and the recent arrest of their leading wide receiver has critics wondering if this team will be too distracted. The league also has two new coaches in Georgia Tech’s Paul Johnson and Duke’s David Cutcliffe. Is his experience enough to finally make the Blue Devils one of your college football picks?

The Big East

West Virginia has been the talk of the college football nation this off-season. The team hopes to make a fresh start with new coach Bill Stewart and their new offensive coordinator Jeff Mullen. With a good number of their starters returning, they could be a good pick for early 2008 college football predications. Pittsburgh looks good with Junior running back LeSean McCoy who rushed for over 110 yards per game last season. At the same time they’re locked in a three-way competition at the quarterback position. Louisville is hoping they can bounce back from a disappointing 6-6 season. Hunter Cantwell will finally get to prove his ability and lead the Cardinals after waiting behind QB Brian Brohm for three seasons. The college football picks get really interesting when throwing Notre Dame into the picture. Coach Charlie Weiss is looking to make a statement after enduring one of the worst seasons in team history.

The Big Ten

The 2008 College Football predictions revolve around two teams in the Big Ten - Ohio State and their long-time rivals, Michigan. After being thrashed in back to back BCS championship games, critics are wondering if Ohio State can recover. The team lost a major part of their lineup to the draft and desperately need to fill a few defensive gaps. Michigan is dealing with a new coach and an entirely different offense. It will be interesting to see how they match up with the Buckeyes minus QB Chad Henne and thorough rusher Mike Hart. Don’t leave Michigan State out of your college football picks. They lost wide receiver Devin Thomas to the draft but show promise with four underclassman.


The Big 12

We continue our preview with the Big 12 conference. Kansas makes a great college football pick coming fresh off a win at the Orange Bowl. Exceptions for this team are high to say the least. We expect a lot of good things from Nebraska as well, especially with Bo Pelini returning as head coach. As a former member of the Huskers’ staff, Pelini has been well received by the organization. Oklahoma makes a good 2008 college football prediction as well. Versatile QB Sam Bradford declined the NFL to stay behind and run the Sooners no-huddle offense. Oklahoma State isn’t to be left out of the discussion as they come back with a dynamic ariel attack. The concern is if they can sustain with it offensive coordinator Larry Fedora leaving for a coaching job at Southern Mississippi.

The Pac 10

The Pacific 10 just may be one of the most competitive conferences this season with a number of quality teams. Southern California leads many of the early 2008 college football predictions. Forced to sit out a season following a transfer from Arkansas, USC QB Mitch Mustain has looked sharp in spring scrimmages with six impressive touchdowns. Their rivals, UCLA, are looking questionable as new head coach Rick Neuheisel already has issues at quarterback. Following a good year, QB Patrick Cowan is expected to be out for the entire season due to a knee injury while the team predicts that Ben Olson will be out for at least six weeks because of issues with his foot. Washington was a solid college football pick in 2007 but things look bleak so far. Center Juan Garcia’s season is in the air after suffering a devastating injury. This comes afer starting every game for two consecutive seasons and being selected as a second-team all-Pac 10 player.

The Southeast

We end our 2008 college football predictions with the fully-loaded Southeastern conference. Coach Les Miles is hoping the LSU Tigers can repeat as champions despite the problems of quarterback Ryan Perrilloux. If Perrilloux is suspended again, Miles may have to make a tough decision between his three backup QBs. The Florida Gators are expected to have another solid season in 2008. Fans are hopeful that running back Chris Rainey can step it up and take a load off of quarterback Tim Tebow. With the season rapidly approaching, Tebow is already favored to when back-to-back Heisman Trophies. Coming off a win at the Sugar Bowl, Georgia returns with a hard-hitting front line. Senior DT Jeff Owens was nominated for the Ronnie Lott Trophy along with junior corner back Asher Allen. Their coach is confident of matching up with the explosive offenses of both LSU and Florida.
