2010 College Football Preview: Predictions & Projections

I hate making predictions. I'm terrible when I make them. It's one of many reasons why I should never work in a sports book. When I worked at my dad's company in high school we would make NFL picks every week for a few bucks. I lost every week which included losses to the secretary. So needless to say bet against me. So why am I making college football predictions? Because I've ran out of teams, coaches, issues to preview that's why. So enough of me talking and on with the predictions.

My Heisman winner and BCS bowl projections will fluctuate from week to week depending on how well a team is performing and of course losses. Right now I have Boise State on the outside looking in on the national championship game. If two or more BCS conference teams are undefeated at the end of the season, no way Boise State is voted into the national championship game. I hope I'm wrong, but that's the feeling I have.
