Basically they've got:

Rose: Wisconsin vs. UCLA
Orange: Virginia Tech vs. TCU
Fiesta: Texas vs. West Virginia
Sugar: Florida vs. Michigan
BCS Championship: USC vs. LSU

So they think TCU is the team that will make the move? Little surprised they think TCU will make the trip to Miami whereas WVU hads out to Arizona. I'd think Texas vs. TCU and West Virginia vs. VPI. Only thing is that Texas and VPI have dominated they're respective opponents (my matches) and this might not get the "Yo Factor" that is desired. I think the picks are pretty solid - especially with USC. LSU will need some luck as an unbeaten Big East team could spoil the party (probably WVU if this was the case).

I'm a bit surprised they have LSU playing for the title. LSU will have a first yr. starter at QB, replacing the possible #1 pick in the NFL draft no less. I would agree that they have a favorable schedule....as long as USC plays in the pac 10, pick 'em to play for the title every year.
WVU could be a good pick also.

IMO, LSU doesn't have a favorable schedule...the SEC has truly become the toughest conference, and its due to the influx of good coaches...plus LSU plays Virginia Tech...

I also like West Virginia...isn't Pat White a senior now? I don't know how the rest of the team looks, but if they can put together a decent defense, I can see West Virginia making it to the championship

White and slaton are juniors. Those guys, along with Noel Devine (if he makes grades) will give WVU possibly the best backfield in the country.

I agree that the SEC is the toughest conference, but LSU has their toughest games at home. Favorable in that regard....

Here's an interesting old post...

Let's see here...TCU is completely out of the picture...

Texas would need OU to lose twice to conference foes, and the Longhorns would have to win out...

USC would need major help to get New Orleans...they'd have to win out and hope alot of other teams lose

Other than that, not too bad...although Wisconsin probably won't be in the BCS
