The Spartan Soap Box: the goings on of the MSU college program
--The Spartans open up August 30 against the Bears of Cal. Both teams had similar records and similar problems in 2007. Coach Dantonio hopes MSU's crappy defensive line will be more than a match for Cals' absence of a viable quarterback.
--The outer divisional games look like a turkey shoot if the Spartan offense--in particular RB Javon Ringer--can stay healthy. 3 of 4 are at home ending with a date against hapless ND. Think I'm too mean to the Irish? Look at their career records against each other. Owned!
--Don't expect much improvement in the passing game as new recruits are--new. Dantonio and Co. recruited out of Ohio heavily, which is OK by Ohio State coach Jim Tressell as long as there's a BCS.
--Watch for Soph phenom Ishmyl Johnson at DE. The way it's looking, he might end up as the ranking dude on the MichSt starting D.
--Lastly, OC Don Treadwell has a plan for keeping 5th year senior starting QB Brian Hoyer protected this season: prophylactics. "Every young man should carry them." he said.

Oregon finishes 10-2 or 9-3. And in an early semi-upset, Utah beats Michigan at The Big House.
Third time's the charm for Ohio State
USC wins its 3rd straight Rose Bowl
Winner of Florida/Georgia takes the SEC
At season's end, Joe Paterno will name himself Coach For Life and barricade himself inside the football office at Penn State, saying they'll never take him alive. When the news reaches Tallahassee, Bobby Bowden will say, "Dadgummit, if he can do it, so can I." Two-state standoff ensues.

Another bold prediction: A Sun Belt team beats a team from A BCS conference (a la Louisiana-Monroe over Alabama last year).
For those who didn't, they came during a radio interview in Los Angeles:
Great bulletin board material for Tressel and the Bucs

You'll always be able to find Ohio State haters. Especially after last season.
From a Buckeye fan. Carson's comments dont bother me at all. He SHOULS hate OSU...he's a trojan. Back when he won the heisman USC fans felt that they were the best team in the country (even though they had two losses) But they were not in the championship game because it was OSU vs Miami. So he's still bitter about that.
Speilman did not become a Michigan fan when he played in Detroit, Chris Carter did not start rooting for the Golden Gophers, AJ Hawk is not a Bager fan....etc
