With many teams/conferences withdrawing from competition this year, it's going to be an interesting race to the top. My bold prediction? Army is the only team to play enough games to be eligible for a bowl and wins the National Championship by default.
Army shut out Middle Tennessee, Navy got destroyed by BYU, and Air Force is too scared to play anybody other than the other academies. Who'd you watch this weekend?
Oklahoma isn't Texas Tech....he can recruit the talent.
Could be his DC hires continue to get burned.
Really? Oklahoma's defenses have looked like JV level talent when they play against the Alabama's/LSU's/Clemson's in the CFP and even against middle level Big 12 teams.
Lincoln Riley has essentially wasted top level talent on offense and at QB during the past 5 years because of the issues on defense.

Time for him to go to the NFL.
I don’t disagree, but the resources made available to him means he can go toe to toe with anyone. [Reply]
