1- ACC Atlantic will go to Clemson. QB Tajh Boyd, Senior RB Andre Ellington, and breakout receiver (also my player to watch for this year) Sammy Watkins will sneak past FSU (and an injury prone EJ Manuel and inconsistent defense) to win the Atlantic and eventually VT to win the ACC Championship and go to the Orange Bowl.
2- Big East will go to Pitt(to agree with my man Kirk Herbstreit's prediction). It is a stretch, don't get me wrong. A weak o-line and d-line, QB issues, and of course RB Ray Graham returning from an ACL tear. I believe Graham will have a bounce back season and lead the Panthers to a title in a conference that almost any team can win.
3- Denard Robinson (who will have numbers similar to his 2010 campaign) and the Wolverines should HANDS DOWN take the Legends division of the B1G; but may see some competition from Ol' Sparty. I agree that Wisconsin takes the B1G outright though.
4- SEC East will be won by Steve Spurrier's South Carolina Gamecocks. An unorthodox, seemingly unstoppable offense, bolstered by the return of Hesiman hopeful RB Marcus Lattimore and team leader QB Connor Shaw will win the East by some bizarre tie-breaker. They will be the best team in the east though, only to fall to Saban's NFL-esque Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship Game.
Also, just as a side note, this is the final year for the WAC as a football conference.
I happen to have a few disagreements:
