wow, I wish I would have waited after that Ole Miss game where Sneed self-destructed, to make that post.
I knew there was a reason I hesitated in gloating on having 3 of the top 4 in one conference

I will say that I like Miami, but there is a voice in my head saying a) they are getting the hype because they are getting the TV time; and b ) they are getting the hype based on beating ranked teams....when the rankings are showing more than ever to be bullshit at this point in the season. Still, I do like them being at or near the top of the ACC (yes, projection, despite my saying I won't).
I'm imagining PSU riding to the top of the Big10+1, but not expecting it. Too many chances for upsets, for them to be exposed, for them to look past a game. They aren't so utterly unbeatable that they can put on jerseys, and win without leaving the locker room. Same goes for TEX in the Big12, though there is more of a chance for them to make it through, IMO - in part because of the chip on their shoulder, in part because the rest of the conferece feels themselves inferior, whether they are or not. And like FL, TX is getting so much (bullshit) poll hype, it will keep them up there even if they trip on a game. Which brings me to FL....and as much as I love my team, and will accept the reasons-excuses about illness and a lack of depth at WR....I am not sure they'll make the SECCG, much less the NC. I'd lean to AL at this point in the SEC, but given USCe (Gamecocks, as opposed to USCw Trojans) upsetting Ole Miss (overranked)....I want to see more conference games before really picking a favorite. PAC10, I'm liking CAL with Best, and would be tickled pink for them to beat USCw. I'd be a little more ecstatic if any other team also beat USCw this season. :D
