Might as well get my predictions out there
SEC - Georgia over Texas
Big Ten - Oregon over Penn State
ACC - Virginia Tech over Miami
Big 12 - Utah over Kansas State
Playoff
- Georgia
- Oregon
- Virginia Tech
- Utah
- Texas
- Alabama
- Ohio State
- Notre Dame
- Tennesee
- Miami
- Penn State
- Liberty or Tulane
First round
Texas #5 over Liberty or Tulane #12
Alabama #6 over Penn State #11
Ohio State #7 over Miami #10
Tennessee #9 over Notre Dame #8
Second round
Georgia #1 over Tennessee #9
Ohio State #7 over Oregon #2
Alabama #6 over Virginia Tech #3
Texas #5 over Utah #4
Semis
Georgia #1 over Texas #5
Ohio State #7 over Alabama #6
Final
Georgia #1 over Ohio State #7
It would go 5-12, 6-11, etc. presumably Tulane would be 12 and would play Texas first round with the winner playing Utah.
Formatting kept messing me up. The teams beside each other after the first 4 are the matchups. Much more clear now.
Is VaTech that good? This is news to me.
It’s preseason. As always things will playout differently. ,

Wait…yall aren’t going off of video game rankings are you?
I’ll admit, I am much higher on Virginia Tech than just about anybody. They were 7-5 last year under a new coach, but won I believe their last 6 games, or 6/7, something like that. They also have the highest % of returning production from last year.

I’ll bet you that one other BigXII team makes the top 16.
KState maybe? I know nothing this early.
My only experience with VT was that Sugar Bowl back in the 90’s. UT got smoked, we left around halftime, and the entire streets of NO were chanting “Goooo…Hokies Go”
If I didn’t have to include a G5 team, KState would be 12

Is Iowa St supposed to be good again? Baylor? Tech? TCU? Somebody?
I have Iowa St and TCU both at 7-5. Baylor 6-6, I think this may be it for Aranda. Texas Tech I have at 8-4. Utah, Kansas St, Kansas and Oklahoma St are what I have as the top 4 teams.
I think the B12 is going to cannibalize itself pretty hard because most of the teams are pretty similar standard

I forgot about Kansas. If Daniels can finally stay healthy that’s a fun team

Because I am an insane person, and because EA broke dynasty heading into the weekend so I was bored, I went through the entire P4 schedule and picked every game. Every. Single. One. It was actually quite fun, I kept a spreadsheet and at the end had record predictions for every team. My one rule going in was I had to find a loss for every team, no matter what.
It was an epic waste of time, but as I said, I was bored.
Such a big if

They (B12) are guaranteed to have a top 4 team, correct?
