Make your boldest college football related prediction. It cannot be a wimpy prediction that you know will likely come true (e.g. "Auburn Beats Alabama State!") or one that many people believe anyway, but a prediction that almost no one else but you expects to happen. Maybe something that you have a gut feeling about, something that may defy logical thinking. It's got to be College Football related and could concern game outcomes, coach issues, final schedules, etc. After the season, we can revive this thread and see how our predictions turned out.
In any case, here are the rules:
No wimpy predictions. Penalty for a wimpy prediction: 15 yards and you sit out next play.
No flaming on the thread. If you don't agree with someone's Mark My Word prediction and want to tell them how crazy they are, take it to another thread. This is just for the bold predictions. Penalty for flaming on the thread: 10 yards from the spot of the foul and loss of down.
* One exception: you may flame someone who makes a wimpy prediction. Because they deserve it. Judgement call by the referee.
Most importantly: you must begin each prediction with "Mark My Word". Because you are sure of it. (And it's in the spirit of the thread.) 1st infraction is a sideline warning, 2nd infraction 15 yards.
You don't necessarily have to explain why you believe the way you do, but if you want to elaborate, go ahead.
No edits once the season begins - although I doubt people would change their predictions to match the season, just want to make it clear.
I'll get this started:
Mark My Word: Auburn will Beat Washington by 2 TD's
Mark My Word USC will beat Georgia
Mark My Word: LSU will fire Ed O

Mark My Word: LSU will have a losing season.
Mark My Word Auburn will lose at least 4 games
Mark My Word: Florida will win the East
Mark My Word: The SEC will be left out of the playoff with the main argument being Miami and Washington dominating their week 1 games vs. SEC teams.

LSU beats UGA but loses to Auburn, Bama, Ole Miss and TAMU.
Not enough to fire Orgeron, but Aranda leaves and Burrow goes pro out of frustration, and our 2019 outlook becomes bleak AF. Orgeron throws Ensminger under the bus and we get our 3rd OC in 3 years and our program takes major steps back.

I don't think any of your three predictions are totally outrageous, they may not be likely but stranger things have happened.
Just to be a homer, my mark my word is UGA finally breaks through and wins the natty.

Mark My Word Tua will be a mediocre QB. The language barrier will just be too much.
Mark My Word Auburn will lose to UW, MSU, UGA, and BAMA. (Hated to type that).

Mark my word - an SECW team will wind up being worst in the conference

These threads tend to go better when you leave your predictions out of the OP. Can always add them in a second post, but going straight into them leads to a lot of what you'll see here... people talking about how shite the thread is because they don't like your predictions.
FWIW, I like the concept, but what do the penalty yards do/mean... I understand it's in theme with football but with no system for grading/scoring, the penalties mean frick all... then you're just left with a weakly supported concept.
Best of luck with your thread.
