Totally just an opinion piece, but I always find him enjoyable. Here are a couple of the standouts that somewhat relate to us:
7. Memphis will be the Group of 5 representative
Memphis and Toledo will both finish unbeaten, creating a dilemma for the CFP selection committee. Memphis will get the nod because of its strength of schedule, which will include victories over three ranked teams (Ole Miss, Temple and Houston). Before the Tigers play Florida in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, Justin Fuente will be named the new coach at a Power 5 school. My best guess: Miami.
8. The ACC will have three job openings (and the Big Ten will have four!)
There are already two job openings in the Big Ten at Illinois and Maryland. Rutgers' Kyle Flood and Purdue's Darrell Hazell also look to be on their way out the door. Two ACC schools will fire their coaches (Virginia's Mike London and Miami's Al Golden), and Virginia Tech's Frank Beamer will retire, ending one of the greatest tenures in college football history.
The Hokies are currently 3-4, but they have a soft enough remaining schedule to finish with a winning record. Beamer, 69, will step down after the Hokies finish with at least five losses for the fourth consecutive season. After winning 10 games or more in eight straight seasons from 2004 to 2011, he'll decide to go out on a winning note. Defensive coordinator Bud Foster deserves the job, but if the Hokies decide to go outside for a successor, Arizona's Rich Rodriguez might be in the mix.
9. South Carolina will hire Alabama defensive coordinator Kirby Smart as its next head coach
Other second-half predictions
Central Florida will finish winless, and coach George O'Leary will retire. He'll end his UCF tenure with a 0-12 record this season after starting with a 0-11 mark in 2004.
