As far as Pittsburgh goes, I don't hardly know anything about them. Typically...they do have a good basketball team though and....their QB's name sounds just like shane falco!
Donnie, I agree with you about Chris Leak. I feel like hes okay in that offense and a good QB, but....Florida would be better off with someone else like...the QB at WVU or someone like that.
South Carolina I see dropping games to UGA, Clemson, Florida, and probably one more, I see an 8-4 record.

Just so you guys know, the Pitt QB is Tyler Palko, not Todd. Wannstead will not do well at Pitt. His approach to player relations did not work in the NFL and will not work at Pitt. Also, the guy is an ass to work for. That prevents him from getting quality assistant coaches. He has five years at Pitt, and then they are going to be look elsewhere. If they were going to do anything worthwhile, it would have been last year.
Florida will not do well until Chris Leake is gone. They will win 7-8 games, however Leake doesn't fit their offense. Urban Meyer is much like Clemson was with Charlie Whitehurst. You have a guy more suited to run the offense on the bench, however you go with the seasoned, long-term starter out of loyalty and comfort.

I think Leak can run Urban Meyer's offense. If you will recall, in his freshman year, Zook had him run the pure option with great success against Miami in a game the where the Gators nearly upset the Canes. He's more athletic than he is being given credit for.

He's not athletic. His athletic prowess is not nearly what Urban Meyer had in his other offenses. He is a better quarterback, but he is not more athletic that Alex Smith or Josh Harris. Leak's toughness in running the ball has constantly been questioned and rightfully so.
Just to give you an idea on how Leak compares...He ran for a whopping 81 yards last season. Josh Harris ran 1,300 in two seasons.
