Predictions, Prognostications, and I Told Ya So's! (2016 Version)

[rkwittem]

Normally AuburnAlumni has this done by now, but he hasn't so I took the liberty of doing so. I basically just copied his stuff verbatim, so it's all his idea.

Ok so here is how this works...

You make a post answering the following questions. (Copy and paste the questions below into your reply)

We then revisit the thread at season's end and see just how right (or wrong) you were in your selections.


1. YOUR FAVORITE TEAM WILL FINISH WITH WHAT RECORD?







2. YOUR CONFERENCE'S FINAL STANDINGS WILL BE? (INCLUDE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME PARTICIPANTS AND OVERALL CONFERENCE CHAMP)





3. THE FINAL FOUR PLAYOFF TEAMS WILL BE?



4. THE HEISMAN TROPHY WILL GO TO?



5. THE NATIONAL CHAMPION WILL BE?



6. YOUR TEAM'S BREAK OUT PLAYER WILL BE?



7. YOUR NATIONAL CINDERELLA TEAM WILL BE? (TEAM THAT COMES OUT OF NOWHERE TO HAVE A SPECTACULAR SEASON)



8. MAKE ONE GUARANTEED "YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST" PREDICTION ON THE 2015 SEASON. IT COULD BE A MAJOR UPSET, PLAYER WHO WILL WIN A NATIONAL AWARD, COACH THAT GETS FIRED, ETC.

[Watson]

Amoo, you came so close to being right and I'm afraid it's as close as you're gonna get for a long long while.

I'm going all in. In years past I've kept my nose in the ground but LSU is too loaded for me to play it down. Let's get stupid with it. Being humble never did anything for anybody ever.

**** a breakout player, almost every starter is coming back. I dunno, give me Devin White

7. YOUR NATIONAL CINDERELLA TEAM WILL BE? (TEAM THAT COMES OUT OF NOWHERE TO HAVE A SPECTACULAR SEASON)

Pitt. They won't win the ACC and they'll play some ugly football, but they'll be able to play well enough that the winner of their game with UNC plays in the ACC title game and will make a pretty prestigious bowl game.

SEC West will replace three coaches: Malzahn and Sumlin are gonna get ****canned and Mullen will jump ship.

Sean White, a pro style passer, will flunk out of Auburn's spread system and Auburn boosters will call for Malzahn's head even though they were the ones that pressured the staff to go after White because Alabama was recruiting him.

Mullen will realize he's reached the ceiling at Miss State and leave in the middle of the night for the first job near the same level that pops up.

Ryan Switzer won't win the Heisman or get the talk that goes along with it but he'll be the best player nobody talks about and sneak away with the Biletnikoff.

Ole Miss' sanctions aren't going to nearly as bad as they should be IF the story about Laquan Treadwell I heard doesn't come to light and is proved to be true. If it does, they're in for a world of hurt.

Oklahoma State will make the jump and steal the B12. They'll do it with some luck but I can see them tripping up OU in Bedlam and then taking advantage of TCU stumbling elsewhere (like Baylor!).
