Who y'all got in this game? Only been able to watch Oregon a couple of times, but Marriota and Oregon look very dangerous.

I'll give the nod to Bama due to experience/Saban. 38-31 Bama or something like that.

I would feel alot better if Ohio State didn't absolutely destroy Wisconsin 59-0. I also think that officiating crews will have a lot to do with outcomes of games. Oregon makes their living by going super fast. If they get a Big 10 or SEC crew, the game will be slowed down, giving FSU a chance to adjust and rest. Cordale Jones has one game under his belt. Did he play the game of his life against the Badgers, or does he have some magic left to use against Bama? Don't count your chickens.

I fully expect an Oregon/Bama matchup, and even though I will be pulling for Bama I think the Ducks are going to take it this year. As good as Bama is, I think Oregon has too much firepower.

Coming back for another year has been a great decision for Mariota. Heisman, Pac-12 champs, and probably the Natty.

Good news for Bama fans though is that I'm usually wrong in picking college games.

I am expecting UA/Oregon but would not be too surprised if FSU somehow managed to win.

I actually think Ohio State will upset Bama. The only coach on the planet that can match with Saban is Meyer. His coaching tree is stronger than Saban's and that to me is the sign of a great coach... How they replicate other HC's. I see Ohio State Oregon and I think Ohio State will win it all.

I like FSU to beat Oregon. FSU is no different than an SEC West team.

Have you guys not seen how small Oregon's offensive and defensive lines are?!?!

Until I saw Ohio State play Saturday night. I really don't know who wins the 1/4 matchup.

I think FL ST goes to CA and puts it to the Ducks.

I happen to agree. If it's Oregon, Bama is the underdog. If it's FSU, I think Bama wins that one going away.

I think Oregon will destroy FSU. I think UA vs OSU will be a close game. Hope we take it, but it is a solid matchup.

They're not going to beat us with a run first 3rd string QB. Not happening. We don't have the talent gap that we usually do but they won't be able to score much on us. I figure like 24-6.

I'm thinking Bama/FSU. Oregon is better on paper but that means little against FSU. As much as the ACC sucks, the Criminoles are a game winning machine. Their luck runs short against Bama though.

Bama beats Ohio St 40-20.

We beat FSU 40-30.

Simple enough.

So, Ohio State will beat Bama because Meyer's coaching tree is "stronger" than Saban's????



Get real dude.

I know I'm in the minority here but IMO FSU has the talent to win the back to back. They haven't been near as dominant this year as last but they keep winning regardless of margin. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them win out.

Also wouldn't be surprised if they lost but Oregon seems a little over hyped IMO.

Oregon is going to crush FSU. Easy money @ ORE -8.5 IMO

OSU/Bama should be a good one.....and close. Wouldn't surprise me if OSU won.
