10-2, with the big question marks being Ole Miss and Arkansas. This is assuming that we get a passable performance from Brandon Harris, like a 50% completion rate

Arden Key.

Jamal Adams and Leonard Fournette already had solid Freshman seasons, but by the end of the year they will be among the most dominant players on each side of the ball.

7. YOUR NATIONAL CINDERELLA TEAM WILL BE? (TEAM THAT COMES OUT OF NOWHERE TO HAVE A SPECTACULAR SEASON)

I have a gut feeling this is the year that Larry Fedora proves he's worth his salt and guides the Tar Heels to a 9 win season, saving his job in Chapel Hill (for now)

8. MAKE ONE GUARANTEED "YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST" PREDICTION ON THE 2015 SEASON. IT COULD BE A MAJOR UPSET, PLAYER WHO WILL WIN A NATIONAL AWARD, COACH THAT GETS FIRED, ETC.

Georgia Tech will run away with the ACC title, but get snubbed from the playoffs in favor of Oregon or Auburn because the ACC will likely be the same two-horse race it was last year.

I'm not saying Gundy is going to fired, but the water won't just be still for him at the season's end.

7. YOUR NATIONAL CINDERELLA TEAM WILL BE? (TEAM THAT COMES OUT OF NOWHERE TO HAVE A SPECTACULAR SEASON)

8. MAKE ONE GUARANTEED "YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST" PREDICTION ON THE 2015 SEASON. IT COULD BE A MAJOR UPSET, PLAYER WHO WILL WIN A NATIONAL AWARD, COACH THAT GETS FIRED, ETC.

Western Michigan beats Michigan St. Week 1 in Kalamazoo, Toledo upsets Arkansas Week 2 and both go 11-0 before meeting Black Friday for the de facto MAC Title Game at the Glass Bowl. Winner goes on to the MAC Title Game and blow the New Year's 6 chance, like Ball St. in 2008.

The ACC will lose half its coaches via retirement, greener pastures or firing by the end of the year.

- Al Golden is canned at the end of the year. Butch Davis is hired to replace him.

- Two preseason playoff favorites, USC and TCU, implode and lose 4 games each.

- Cardale Jones and JT Barrett both return to Ohio State next fall for Jones' senior year

- Les Miles comes dangerously close to a losing season and almost gets fired. He stays after a "vote of confidence" from the AD.
