Recruiting Rankings:
1. OSU- Comes back with Pryor and the stud rookies to win the Big Ten.
2. Alabama
3. LSU
4. UCLA
5.UNC- I honestly think these guys will be BCS bowl caliber next year. Great class, and a good foundation.
6.Texas
7.Georgia
8.USC
9.Oklahoma
10.Penn State
11.Texas A&M
12.South Carolina
13.Michigan
14.Stanford- WOW.... who knew the Cardinal could recruit?
15.Auburn
16.Mississippi

18.Mississippi State- SEC darkhorse contender.
19.Miami
20.Arkansas
21.Tennessee
22.Florida
23.West Virginia
24.Notre Dame
25.South Florida

Conference Recruiting Rankings, In my opinion:
1. The SEC by far. 9 top 25 recruiting classes!
2. The Big Ten. The Big Twelve was close, but didnt have number 1!
3. The Big Twelve
4. The ACC
5. The PAC 10. 2 Top 25 classes. Farther up then the Big East However.
6. Big East. Only 23 and 25....... PATHETIC!

None of the non BCS conferences mad big recruiting splashes. Some surprise contenders for their respective conferences next year COULD( I cant emphasis enough, this is my own opinion) be Mississippi State, Minnesota, Texas A&M, Miami, STANFORD(HUUUGGEEEEEEEE prediction here.... if I get this right you better go telling all your friends to come to my blog), and South Florida.

Northern Illinois over La Tech.


Papajohns.com Bowl:
NC State over Rutgers. All of the ACC is better than the big east.... except for WVU, Pittsburgh, and Cincy.

The Illini

I think my Illini are going 7-5 this year. What a disappointing season after a 9-3 rose bowl trip last year. Motor City Bowl, Champs Sports Bowl, and the Insight bowl are the only possible bowl games.

Big game picks

4 Oklahoma over 16 Kansas
20 Michigan State over 12 Ohio State
3 Penn State over Michigan(BLOWOUT ALERT)
1 Texas over 11 Missouri(just barely, I see this as a good ole big 12 shootout)
13 LSU over South Carolina
10 Georgia over 22 Vanderbilt
15 Boise State over Hawaii

My upset pick of the week

I think Navy has a shot at beating Pittsburgh. My reason for this is the Navy QB, whos name I wont even try to pronounce. The man is a beast! Honestly, I cant wait to see this game(ill watch it once im back from the Illinois Indiana game, GO ILLINI) on espn360. Watch this happen: Pittsburgh's stud back gets shut down. Navy's QB passes all over Pitt.

Final Score Prediction:
Navy over Pitt 31-23.
