About halfway through the season I made some predictions on the conference races. Let's see how I did.

ACC
Rodent's pick: North Carolina over Boston College
Reality: Florida State over North Carolina

Big-12
Rodent's pick: Iowa State
Reality: Iowa State

Big East
Rodent's pick: West Virginia
Reality: West Virginia

Big Ten
Rodent's pick: Michigan over Indiana
Reality: Ohio State over Michigan

Conference USA
Rodent's pick: Tulsa over Southern Miss
Reality: Tulsa over Southern Miss

MAC
Rodent's pick: Ball State over Buffalo
Reality: Buffalo over Ball State

Mountain West
Rodent's pick: Boise State
Reality: Colorado State

PAC-12
Rodent's pick: Stanford over USC
Reality: Stanford over Arizona State

SEC
Rodent's pick: South Carolina over Arkansas
Reality: Mississippi State over South Carolina

Sun Belt
Rodent's pick: Florida International
Reality: Middle Tennessee

WAC
Rodent's pick: Louisiana Tech
Reality: Louisiana Tech

Independents
Rodent's pick: BYU makes the playoffs
Reality: BYU made (and won) the playoffs

How'd I do:
Division champions: 8/12 picks correct
Conference champions: 5/11 picks correct
Total: 13/23 (plus the BYU pick makes 14/24 correct)

But check this out, during my news release about how ridiculous the preseason rankings were, I had Texas coach Mack Brown tweeting that Texas would go 3-9. Check out Texas' record. 3-9. Is that weird or what?
