I worry about our first game and the season in general. I know our defense is supposed to be great.....what 7 or 9 returning starters, but it's the same starters that gave up major points last season and who made the Oklahoma RB and household name!

yeah, Auburn's QB is receiving a lot of praise, but only attempted 37 passes in 2014 & didn't play any snaps in 7 games either. Auburn is also looking for Will Muschamp to fix its defensive unit. 5-loss team from a year ago. Could be ripe for an early upset. People respect the heck out of Malzahn -- that's why Auburn is starting out ranked so high.

I'm tempted to take S.Car, but I took them last year on the Thurs night home opener & they got smoked by aTm. allowed 50+

Michigan-Utah very well will be the game of the night.

Washington at Boise is one of my most intriguing match-ups of week 1 given Petersen's history with Boise, who I have as underrated again.

Texas-ND & Alabama-Wisconsin could be snoozers & all brand name hype. Ariz State-aTm should be a dandy. I hope ASU beats those punks.

tOSU-V.P.I. I expect to be a sloppy, funky game with no rhythm. 4 receivers & all-America DE out for tOSU. The Turkeys will still struggle to score, but will certainly be up for the game & will keep it mildly close in moments. At full strength, Ohio State would whip V.P.I. by 20+

I'll say this, don't put too much, if any, stock into who wins. Just like last year, tOSU could be upset & still go to the playoff. V.P.I. could pull the stunner again & still go on to lose several thereafter.
