The Wisconsin Badgers head into the 2010 season off an impressive 20-14 win over Miami, Fl in the Champs Sports Bowl to push their 2009 record to 10-3. This year the Badgers are not only thinking of another ten win season, they are thinking they are good enough to win the Big 10 conference with 18 starters back. It won’t be easy with the likes of Iowa and Ohio State primed for monster seasons, but either way you look at it the Badgers figure to be a very good football team in 2010. Here is...

After starting the year 5-3 Notre Dame failed to win a single game in the final four, and very well could have won all four of those games. All this led to the firing of head coach Charlie Weis, who just couldn’t seem to get this team to turn the corner. The Irish are hoping that the addition of new head coach Brian Kelly will be what this team needs to get back on top the college football landscape....

Nebraska nearly beat Texas in the Big 12 Championship Game to play in a BCS Bowl game, but instead had to settle with beating the crap out of Arizona in the Holiday Bowl 33-0. 2010 will be the final year for the Cornhuskers in the Big 12, as they have accepted an invitation to play in the Big 10 starting next season. The Cornhuskers have 15 starters back from last...

What hurt the most is the Longhorns had to play nearly the entire game without their star quarterback Colt McCoy. Texas has just 12 starters back from their title run a year ago, but this school is well known for reloading with...

In 2009 Tebow nearly led the Gators to their third National Championship in the last four years, but they were unable to beat Alabama in the SEC Championship game, and the Crimson Tide went on to beat Texas for the BCS National Championship. The Gators finished the season 13-1 after thrashing Cincinnati in the Sugar Bowl. Florida is one of the few schools that could lose...

Despite the solid record the Tigers went just 3-5 in conference play in 2009. Gene Chizik enters his second season as head coach, and you have to figure things are going to run a little more smoothly now that he has had a year running the show. Many Tiger fans enter the 2010 season thinking that this team not only has enough talent...

All of their losses came by 10 points or less to the likes of Alabama, Florida, Ole Miss and then Penn State in the Capital One Bowl. So they weren’t far away last season, but they may actually be further away from being one of the top teams in the SEC in 2010 with just 10 returning starters. Below I give my LSU predictions for this season, and if you want to find out how Jason Lowry sees them...

The Buckeyes finished up the year 11-2 overall and 7-1 in Big Ten play, giving them at least a share of the conference title for the fifth straight season. The Buckeyes secured the conference title with an overtime thriller against the Iowa Hawkeyes, and it figures to come down to the two schools again this season. The Buckeyes head into the 2010 season thinking National Championship,...

In 2008 the Volunteers fired Phillip Fulmer and replaced him with former NFL head coach Lane Kiffin, but Kiffin bolted for USC this past offseason forcing the Vols to go out and sign new head coach Derek Dooley. In 2009 the Vols went just 7-6 under Kiffin and were smoked in the Chick-fil-A Bowl against Virginia Tech 37-14. The Volunteers had some very good players on their 2009 team as both safety...

There is still hope that head coach Rich Rodriguez can get the Wolverines back a top the college football landscape, but if this team doesn’t start winning football games he likely won’t be around for another season. In 2009 the Wolverines opened up the year 5-2 and were looking like they were headed back to their first bowl game since 2007,...

Still I am sure this team felt like it could have went undefeated in 2009, as both their losses came at home (Iowa and Ohio State). The Nittany Lions had just 9 starters back last year, so if anyone is thinking this team is going to have a big drop off with 13 starters back in 2010, they are...

It’s filled with high-scoring games, as we saw with the 68-49 North Texas win over Western Kentucky. Little defense gets played, but it is very competitive nonetheless. Troy has owned this conference in recent years, winning back-to-back outright titles. But they lose a lot of talent, which opens the door for a few teams to sneak in and win it in 2010.

The Chippewas also snapped the MAC’s 14 game bowl losing streak with a win over Troy in the GMAC Bowl last season. The MAC has had its success against the BCS schools in the past, grabbing 6 wins in 2008 against the bigger and supposedly better conferences. Last year the conference slipped...

If they were to go undefeated and win their eighth WAC title in the past nine years, then they would be riding a 26-game winning streak. Not to mention, they’d have beaten Virginia Tech and Oregon State, two solid non-conference foes to boost their resume.

In 2008 the MWC finished with two schools in the top 10, and in 2009 three schools finished the year in the top 25. The TCU Horned Frogs won the division with a perfect regular season record of 12-0, but came up short against Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl, and wound up finishing the year at No.6. The BYU Cougars finished the year at No.12 after an impressive...
