First, we take a look at NDSU. A year after winning their sixth title, there is no reason why they can’t go for seventh heaven. It all starts with Bruce Anderson, but it also has to do with the play of Easton “Stick in the Gun.” As Jeffrey Culhane likes to say, “Horns up, and the rest of the MVC down”.

Now, moving on to the Blue and Orange, can Craig Bagnell bag his first win in St. Cloud against the Huskies, or will the Huskies have more bark to their bite? You can listen to Marauders play by play with Rick Anthony on the home for Marauders football, AM 550 to find out.

Moving on to Division One, the first game that we will be paying attention to is Notre Dame vs. Michigan. Can Brian Kelly lead the Irish into the big house and make the Michigan band be quiet? The answer is only time will tell. The Irish are lead by Ian Book at quarterback. Can the offensive line give him plenty of time to read a book? I think the answer will be yes, because if Ian has had plenty of repetition, I expect the Irish offense to be humming up and down the field. The Notre Dame defense will face a stiff test on Saturday night in the big house, but I expect Irish eyes to be shining on Notre Dame.

Alabama will be led by Tua Tagovailoa, and if he is anything like he was in the championship game, I expect the rest of college football to experience high tide.

Ohio State is facing some controversy because of the once proud Urban Meyer and his fatal decision that will land him in hot water with jeremiahboyce.com. If I was the institution in Columbus, I would not let him coach at all. I believe that Ohio State should have given him a tougher penalty, like you can’t coach for the rest of the year. Instead, they only gave him a slap on the wrist, and the poor baby will only miss the first three games. I don’t that’s harsh enough.
