I know, it's early. WAAAAAYYY early. But in looking at the 2008 College Football regular season games, it's clear that something is amiss amongst big time programs. The method of play the cupcakes to walk into a national championship seems to have fallen away. These teams, instead of scheduling "directional" pussyfoots, have put some real intriguing matchups together for the casual fans.
Take a look:
Miami vs. Florida
Texas vs. Arkansas
Hawaii vs. Florida
Illinois vs. Missouri
USC vs. Virginia
Auburn vs. West Virginia
Oregon State vs. Penn State
Tennessee vs. UCLA
Ohio State vs. USC (a potential 1 vs 2 matchup, depending on who you ask)
Miami vs. Texas A&M
Virginia Tech vs. Nebraska
Sure, some of those teams have been down lately (Miami, Nebraska, UCLA), but these are all still marquee matchups heading into the early parts of the 2008 season.
Is it me? Or can spring practice not come soon enough...
