So here's the preseason contest.

Get your post in by Wednesday August 29. Good luck beating the Czar! 1 Alabama 2 LSU 3 Oregon 4 Oklahoma 5 USC 6 Oklahoma St 7 Arkansas 8 Stanford 9 Michigan 10 Wisconsin 11 South Carolina 12 Georgia 13 Florida St 14 Michigan St 15 TCU 16 West Virginia 17 Boise St 18 Texas 19 Kansas St 20 Virginia Tech 21 Nebraska 22 Notre Dame 23 Houston 24 Baylor 25 Missouri 26 Texas A&M 27 Florida 28 Clemson 29 Ohio St 30 BYU |

The tricky part of this contest is so many of the Top 30 have cupcake schedules the first few games. I am not sold on Clemson as being a mover and shaker in the upward direction. Their schedule though lends to large swings either way.

Doesn't look like anybody's picked Ohio State yet, so I'll take the Buckeyes.
