Stewart: I think you will love this question. The premise is to correctly predict a college football team that will win a national championship in the next 20 years. You can pick any five teams -- but only if they haven't already won a national championship since 1980. For every team you correctly pick you get a million bucks. Which five would you take?

One obvious choice is Oregon, seeing as it's already come close twice in the past five years. I'll also take TCU, because Gary Patterson isn't going anywhere anytime soon and he could definitely pull if off. But it's also important to take a step back and look at longer-term growth potential, because the landscape could look completely different five years from now, much less 20. With that in mind, for my other three, give me Texas A&M, Louisville and, as a wild card, UCF. You never know what that school could accomplish if it ever moves to a power conference.
