    Might as well get a start on the next season. Lots of shuffling on conferences, including several teams that seem to have parachuted onto the Titanic just as it reaches the iceberg.

    My own University of North Texas Mean Green has moved into Conference USA, which is a step up from the Sun Belt. Unfortunately CUSA isn't what it used to be -- but outside of the superconferences, what is these days?

    Our money game for 2013 is our inevitable stomping by SEC member Georgia.

    This photo was snapped by a member of the team and drifted around the web/twitter/etc. for a bit. Obviously with the Tulane move to the Big East (IF that still occurs) there will be some shifting.

    For the first time in three years, I am excited about Tech football. And I'm more excited than I ever have been, even counting while I was in school there.

    The Mike Leach firing was painful, the past three years proved to be numbing, but now the riverboat hustler Tommy Tubbberville is finally gone, and our prodigal son Kliff Kingsbury has returned to lead the football program after a superbowl ring from being on the Patriots reserve squad, then serving as an offensive coordinator at U of Houston, where he coached Case Keenum to rediculous offensive production, and then most recently was offensive coordinator at Texas A&M where he coached Johnny Heisman's rediculous freshman year.

    And now he's home on the South Plains where he belongs.

    And the Texas Tech pirate ship finally has a proper Kaptain at the helm.

    2013 can't come soon enough, this year was a disaster. Although if Kyle Van Noy goes pro, I'll be a sad panda.

    8. Notre Dame
    Regardless of what happens in the national championship game, the Fighting Irish will have trouble repeating their 12-0 mark in 2013. However, expect Notre Dame to still rank among the top 10-15 teams in the nation next year. The defense is expected to suffer significant losses, as linebacker Manti Te’o and end Kapron Lewis-Moore expire their eligibility after the national championship, and nose guard Louis Nix III and cornerback Bennett Jackson could leave early for the NFL. With the defense likely to suffer some losses, the offense needs to lead the way next year. Quarterback Everett Golson should be more comfortable in his second season as the starter, but running back Cierre Wood and left tackle Zack Martin may decide to leave for the NFL. Even if the Fighting Irish suffer some early departures to the draft, this team should still remain in the mix for a BCS bowl.


    ^ Typical 'fast food', factually inaccurate analyisis. ^

    Nix is returning. Jackson is returning. Martin is returning. Wood is leaving, but Notre Dame is absolutely loaded at RB next year including George Atkinson III, RS tailback Amir Carlisle (transfer from USC) and incoming frosh 5 Star Greg Bryant (out of Delray Beach, FL). Further, Notre Dame has the #2 rated recruiting class overall, and probably the #1 class if it's based strictly on the defensive side. And the class will only get stronger in the next 30 days, e.g. Max Redfield a 5 Star DB/S (out if Mission Viejo, CA) just decommitted from USC and will probably commit to ND on 1/04. Brian Kelly is in the process of transforming Notre Dame into an SEC type team so they will contend year in and year out.

    Man bowl season is so boring...useless games made only for sponsorship just to kill time to the national championship. Can't wait for January to come around. And for the only game that matters, I'll be on an airplane during the 1st half. :(

    Still very fluid but the rich look to be getting richer as they say.

    A&M appears to be stockpiling talent for a major push to support Johnny Football.

    Vandy coming on strong...their coach will be gone to a richer pasture after this year.

    I'm surprised to see Oregon that far down the list but they might move up now that it sounds like the coach is staying...for now.

    Ole Miss is still in the running for the # 1 overall player so they could/should move up...Hotty Toddy!

    Now that world order has been retained for another year...wouldn't it be ironic if Urban and the Buckettes break the SEC's streak considering that his Gators started it...Ole Miss vs OSU...Rebels don't fail me now!!! :D

    Just a negotiating tactic with Notre Dame. He's not going anywhere, but ....

    Chris Mortensen and ‏AdamSchefter report: Eagles interviewed Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly. Sides will revisit when Kelly returns from out of country.

    Bless me Holy Father for I have sinned. I failed to schedule quality opponents for my team to play. This gave them and all the faithful a false sense of security. It was through my most grievous fault that I led the Irish into the S.E.C. buzzsaw known as the Crimson Tide led by Lucifer himself in the form of Nick Saban.

    Nebraska might have a decent offense : they better, because they are going to need to score 50+ points a game in order to win a bunch of games.

    The word at USC is that there is a group of alums beating the bushes for the money to buy out Lame Kiffins contract.

    They have had enough of that nitwit but I have heard it is going to take 10 mil to make it happen.


    If thats a real number there must be a penalty for early buyout. Considering they even hired him they might have been dumb enough to go for it.


    Then all they need is a coach that can fix the mess he made.

    Congrats to Ole Miss. Glad to see someone other than LSU or Bama gaining some of the kids out of high school. Of course most of this means very little as we have learned at OSU.

    Overall you will get some good ones from all of the ones you recruit, but I wouldn't start writing your ticket to the National Championship just yet there Hoddy Toddy. :D

    Just heard that LSU has hired Cam Cameron as the new Offensive Coordinator. The 52 year old Cameron helped develop Drew Brees, Philip Rivers, and Joe Flacco. looks like the Ole Miss fans' premature celebrations are no longer confined to the bedroom. :)
