Excerpt:
......Last year's bold predictions were ... um ... a little off, with No. 1 and No. 2 being especially off target. That's alright, one out of five ain't bad..................
1. The Heisman Trophy will be awarded to a true freshman for the first time:.............

2. This year's leading rusher will not be a name you expect:.........It'll be Northwestern's Justin Jackson. The senior just missed the cut of our 17 most irreplaceable players for the upcoming season, but he received a lot of consideration. In fact, Jackson, not Penn State's Saquon Barkley, was the Big Ten's leading rusher a year ago with 1,524 yards at 117.2 yards per game. And roughly two-thirds of those yards came after contact. As Ralph Russo of the Associated Press noted, Jackson has "more combined carries and catches than any player in a Power Five conference." At 298 carries in 2016, Jackson is the nation's leading returning ball toter. He is the definition of a workhorse back. If he stays healthy, there's every reason to believe he can lead the nation in yardage.

3. Tua Tagovailoa will become a steady part of Alabama's offense:...........

4. Kansas State will send coach Bill Snyder out on top...............

5. At least five Power Five coaches will not make it to November: ......We are in a day and age now in college football where schools refuse to wait before making a coaching change......Among them are Kevin Sumlin (Texas A&M), Hugh Freeze* (Ole Miss), Brian Kelly (Notre Dame), Todd Graham (Arizona State), Jim Mora (UCLA) and Butch Jones (Tennessee).................

Last Years Predictions:
