Brando picked TCU and Florida State to play for it all in 2010



A team that finished 10-4 and a team that finished 13-0

In a year where Auburn won it all (only few had them pegged to win it), that's not a bad pick. If Auburn loses the games they were supposed to, TCU might have made it in.

Brett Hundley is really good. Other than Braxton Miller, I can't really think of any QB's that would be considered better than him going in to the season. Maybe Mariota? The kid from Stanford is good but I don't think he's as good as Hundley.

ETA: forgot about ole crab legs. he's pretty good too i guess...

Other than rolling your eyes, how about you give us your opinion on the matter. Myles Jack is a great linebacker.

It's the idiots that don't watch college football. They watch SEC games and claim to be college football fans

Veteran QB, very good RB, best player in America, arky and msu from the west....

I wouldn't have predicted that, you're right, but at least you could justify it. I dont' see any way to justify that this year.

Very few people would tell you that the best QB in the country goes to an SEC school. I would take Winston or Mariota over Hundley and day

No, we're just annoyed by national writers who think it is cute to look for reasons not to pick SEC teams.

Nobody insulted Jack. Someone disagreed with you in claiming he's the best defensive player in the country. Quit being a little bitch.

Also Brando can eat my shorts. His top 10 is shite.

Yeah, the 10% that pick against the SEC..THE HORROR. How about the 90% that will pick Alabama / Auburn to play FSU because it's a safe pick?

Get the hell over it. You have one school to cheer for...not 14.

You're pretty riled up about this.

I really don't expect many will pick AU to make the playoff, much less the title game. Alabama is a good pick. The chances of UCLA making it are slim, he's doing it for attention, not accuracy.

Yea I'm sure the guy was insinuating they are identical players. If people want to toot the SEC horn try not to let it bother you too much.

The chances are slim? They have to win the Pac-12, which is a great possibility..not slim. Then they have to win 1 game to get to the championship.

How's that slim?

No we didn't. You're either kinda dumb or personally invested in this for some reason. We're talking about the urge to elevate non-SEC players to exalted levels because they're not in the SEC. It happens yearly.

Nobody is saying Jack=Teo.

I have no problem with this. It's the people who downplay any player or team because they aren't in the SEC

So Jack doesn't deserve the hype?
