That Bama line is ridiculous. USC has recruited well lately and can beat them

dont worry, by mid July every teams fanbase will be talking about how their stud players have put on 20 lbs of pure steel in the offseason and how the QB has added 10-15 yards to his passes and never been so accurate. also all the new recruits who enrolled early are WAY ahead of the curve and ready to dominate.

by then, i expect the lines to move around a little.


gotta love the offseason, only 7 months to go, lol.

I'd imagine Clemson fans are pretty psyched to see their offense against Steele

If you can take LSU at 3.5 jump on that. When I was reading Wisconsin fans' melt during the Aranda ordeal, they seem to think they will not have a good team at all

Yep. If I was a gambler, I'd be all over those.

Bama has won 4 of the last 7 national championships, and their coach just won his fifth. Quit pretending there's some kind of unjustified Bama bias. There IS a Bama bias, but it's very deserved.

With that said, I think that line is too high. Bama is a team that gets better and better as the season wears on and their superior coaching comes into full effect. If they played USC late in the year I could easily see giving 14, but I expect USC to cover - and lose - in the first game of the season.

Okay. So you make a whole bunch of unfounded assumptions about my post then agree with me. Bizarre.

That Bama Offensive Line is ridiculous. It made Derrick Henry look better than Leonard Fournette.

I think my favorite part of this one in college football is that college fans pretty much always forget guys they recruited 3 years ago.

Recruit some 18 year old kid with 4 stars and the fans assume HE should immediately be ahead of the 4 star kid that hit campus 2 years ago but hasn't broken into the starting lineup yet.

Basically, if you don't have an impact immediately, college fans assume you're a bust.
