Phil Steele has a pretty good mag, he has had some good picks over the years.Comment -
I agree with Auburn, people picking them to win 8 games, I don't see it. Most have them ahead of Miss State and I don't see that eitherComment -
Alabama travels to Penn State 2nd game of the season...dangerous game that earlyComment -
Penn State stinks, Alabama will crush them.Comment -
Can't wait for football!! Money making time!Comment -
I buy all these damn magazines. Can't help myself.Comment -
In his mag last year he picked Ohio St and Oklahoma to meet in the national championship game so I wouldn't count on Alabama winning the national title this season.Comment -

There's just a major difference in talent between Alabama and Penn State right now. I think it'll be a lot like last season's game.Comment -
Alabama beats Penn State. No doubt.Comment -
-----Most have Auburn ahead of Miss State and I don't see that either
I agree-really like what Mullins is doing at Miss. StateComment -
relf and ballard are back right? what do they have returning up front on both sides of the ball?Originally posted by sonymanComment -
How can Va. Tech surprise anyone? Have you seen their schedule? It just does not get any easier. I also think that Auburn is a 6-6 team this season.Comment -

how can a team be in shambles before they have one fall practice?! LOLOriginally posted by InTheDrink Penn St is in shambles As for the OP, nothing in the post was surprising but hats off to making a Phil Steele thread....guy is the truthComment -
Relf and Ballard are back and they do have ample experience returning on both sides of the ball. Solid team, but they won't be sneaking up on anyone this year. Put them in any other conference and you could be looking at DD wins, but that SEC schedule is grueling. They do catch a couple of the better teams at home though.Originally posted by bobby heenanComment -
Always look forward to Phil Steele's mags every season.Comment -
looking forward to seeing some over/unders on team wins.Comment -

I have a feeling the WVU Mountaineers are going to suprise some people this year. I will be betting on them all year long. That offense is going to score some points and Geno Smith is one of the best QB's people know nothing about.Comment -
any SEC powerhouse will crush Penn St.Comment -
Agreed.Originally posted by venice2222Comment -
Penn state is almost as good as women's sports in total. Ha they are futileComment -
Illinois wins 9 and goes jan 1st bowling vs the sec!Comment -
geno smith is a stud, if he can get it together and take care of the ball, hey now....plus holgorsen is a STUD they are gonna run the tables of the weak big east ESPECIALLY NEXT YEAR, they are gonna be back to the days of slaton and white, when they fuckin blew it to pitt when i had em 12/1 to win national championship and a berth in that game was guaranteed...damn pat mcafee AWFUL!Originally posted by Holdin AcesComment -
cause they still dont have a QB after 2 years......plus think 1 guy is hurt correct psu fans? the honky one?Originally posted by Brock LandersComment -
Alabama talent-wise is just on another level than pretty much any Big Ten team. They would have done to OSU the same thing they did to MSU last January, Pryor or no Pryor. Penn State without a QB doesn't stand a chance.
Virginia Tech losing Tyrod Taylor is addition by subtraction. Lack of QB play has really held the ACC back in recent years. The SEC is so stacked that if you're not on your game its tough to win 6 games. Auburn doesn't even need to suck to finish at the bottom of the division when they have to play Alabama, LSU, Arkansas, and Mississippi State. Maybe even Old Miss can catch them off guard.Comment -
Alabama wouldn't of done to OSU what they did to MSU. Come on man. OSU actually has talent to match up, MSU didn't. Alabama still would of won, but it would of been close.Originally posted by agharah1Comment -
Penn St should put up a fight at home, but, overall lose the game by about 10...Comment -
I haven't come across anyone anywhere who has more football info at his disposal than Phil Steele. That said, his magazines and newsletters are unreadable. The print is so small, the Auburn War Eagle would need reading glasses. 90% of the information he gives you is historical data and really has very little significance in handicapping games. Northcoast is a reputable sports service, though very pricey, but in my opinion their biggest weakness is paralysis by analysis. Too much info.....
Looking forward to another great football season, boyz!!Comment -
You could be right about that.Originally posted by xyzkyComment -
the only thing is is the game isnt played by a magazineComment
