Top Seven 2009 College Football Predictions

Disclaimer: if you are looking sports predictions that will make you a rich man in the city of Las Vegas, you've come to the wrong place. I can indeed see the future, but my visions are mostly in the form of keen observations that any observant onlooker can eventually figure out over time. I cannot be held responsible for lost millions and evictions form expensive condos which shouldn't have owned in the first place. continue reading at own amusement.

1.) Tebow will shine, hype train chugs along.
I'm not one of those so called "Tim Tebow haters." I think he's quite good, and very entertaining. The guy is built like a tank, and isn't afraid of taking or giving a hit. He's not your typical Quarterback.He's almost a freak of nature.

Tebow is gonna lead Florida to more victories this coming season, and his unyielding followers will continue to preach his exaggerated greatness. If he fails to live up to the hype in the NFL(You know, the place that separates true greatness from mediocrity,)It'll be a major gut check for everybody who's so quick to crown this kid as greatest athlete ever.

2.) Overtimes on televised games: 6 to 8.
Every time you see an overtime in college football, note whether or not commentators mention the National Football Leagues overtime system. It seems likes NFL guys can't wait to trash College footballs version every chance they get(even if it is a lot more dramatic).

3.) No Mascot fights, no reason for those losers to be out there.
Mascots Mascots are like the poor mans cheer leader. Neither actually plays a part in making the team play harder. Only one of them is easy on the eyes. And, no matter how many kids are in attendance, mascots are the crappiest form of entertainment to have during a games downtime.
Unless they put on over sized boxing gloves, or body slam each other like professional wrestlers, they're useless and only serve to take up valuable space that could be used by the cheerleaders for one of those pyramids they all do so well.

4.) At least one win = better than Lions.
In 2008, the Detroit Lions lost all 16 games in the regular season. That makes them the worst professional football team in history. Because of that, I feel that at least three college teams should be promoted in their place, and be aloud to play against NFL teams this coming season.

I'd rather watch Notre Dame go against the Panthers, Patriots or Colts. I doubt any of the teams in College Football's big conferences will go winless. Getting rid of embarrassing franchises would really both entities. Detroit would be considered as an ivy league kind of team. A push over for the Penn States of the world..

5.) Trick plays will work: 3-6 times(a week).
With desperation comes gadgets.Hook and latter plays seem to happen every week in College football. It's usually the every last play of a game that was over midway through the second quarter. Silly plays that make these players look more like kids playing in the backyard than future super stars who'll make their living on Sunday afternoons, will be the norm this season.

Every time they fail, the coach will look like the dumbest human being s in existence. When they work, coaches will come off as being crafty, and not afraid to take risks. This isn't really a prediction per say, more like an observation.

6.) BCS will still be hated, world keeps spinning.
I wrote a satire article about the BCS a couple of years ago. I professed my approval for it, and pointed the genius of the whole thing. Either I suck at satire online(likely, but not in this case), or the people who commented on that are blinded by rage, because a few wing nuts actually took it seriously.

Everybody will come up with a reason to complain when bowl selection night comes 'round. It's like clockwork. Don't get too riled up over the results. It's not the end of the world if your college gets snuffed, so please refrain from rioting. kthxbye.

7.) BCS Championship game will feature Florida, and...
easiest prediction to make here. Without the shadow of a doubt, Florida is one of the must hyped teams this year. They could play average and still make it to the Championship game off the strength of Tebow's speech from last year alone.

Their opponents on the other hand, that's a toughie. My
crystal ball seems to be malfunctioning at the moment. For some unforeseen reason, Penn State keeps showing up as a possible David to the Gators' Goliath. That match up won't happen unless Joe Pa announces that this will be his last year as coach, and the Comity bypasses all information given by computers and fans who's teams had tougher schedules, and gives the Pitt Panthers a gift in the form of a title berth.
