    We are two weeks from our true love College Football. There's been enough written coast to coast about all teams. You can find anything true or untrue about any coach or program anywhere.

    Which college team will turn in the best surprise season? My vote goes to Florida State...because they have overhauled their coaching staff without the head coach changing. They have also brought in top quality coaching changes.

    Which team do you think will be this years surprise team with a shot at the BCS NC game come November?

    Georgia isn't gettting a lot of attention, but they are loaded with talent and have probably the best coach in the SEC right now. I expect to meet them in the SECCG.

    Unproven at QB and are very short at RB and WR. Their defense has historically been tough, but I can't write them in just yet.

    Oklahoma State will have one hell of an offense this year.

    Southern Miss will have a great team this year. They have a nasty defense, a great young RB and a senior laden OL with a senior QB. They may make a run to the BCS this year.

    New defensive coordinator, right? I don't see them replacing Ty Nix easily.

    i agree, but i think it might be a stretch to call top 10 (11) teams a sleeper. maybe?

    agree...just hard to think given the history of the louisville program, and given the perceived weakness of the conference that they or wvu could be vaulted into the bcs championship game.
