NCAA FOOTBALL PREVIEW: BIG 12
August 30, 2011
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
The Big XII has been the major epicenter of conference realignments to date, as Colorado and Nebraska dropped the conference to 10 members but other rumors regarding Texas fizzled. Although it is unclear if the 10 team league will stay how it is with Texas A&M looking to bolt, the games will go on with a full round robin and 10 teams for 2011. Last year five teams ended the season with 6-2 conference records....[MORE]

NCAA FOOTBALL PREVIEW: BIG TEN
August 29, 2011
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
Although their longtime Rose Bowl dance partner also jumps to a 12 team conference this season, the Big Ten has made the biggest splash to date in conference expansion by adding Nebraska. The Cornhuskers begin Big Ten play as an immediate favorite despite a brutal opening conference schedule and the usual adjustment period for new teams in new leagues. However, the new kid on the block cannot hide the other....[MORE]

NCAA FOOTBALL PREVIEW: BIG EAST
August 28, 2011
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
Although many called for the Big East to lose its automatic qualifier status in the BCS following the 2004 departure of three power teams, the league has more than asserted itself in the past five years by putting up the second best winning percentage against other AQ conferences and respectable bowl records every season. The eight team league is one year away from the addition of TCU and a more balanced 8 game....[MORE]

NCAA FOOTBALL PREVIEW: ACC
August 21, 2011
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
The ACC has struggled in recent seasons to be relevant on a national stage, as the local competition in the SEC has dominated the recruiting trail and bowl games. However, the two Florida teams appear posied to grow back into nationally relevant powers and Virginia Tech continues to hold up the league banner well. Just like North Carolina a season ago (and the Tar Heels will be adversely affected again this season with the recent....[MORE]

NCAA FOOTBALL PREVIEW: SEC
August 15, 2011
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
Before 2006, the debate over which conference was the best in college football was usually a good one. However, there's absolutely no doubt that the Southeastern Conference stands head and shoulders above the rest of the pack. Five consecutive national titles, three of the past four Heisman Trophy award winners, and complete dominance of non-conference play leaves little doubt about the SEC. Coming into this season....[MORE]

NCAA FOOTBALL PREVIEW: PAC-12
August 15, 2011
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
The PAC-12 begins their first season with new members Colorado and Utah on board, along with a lot of excitement and improving teams all over the western side of the country. Some of the same storylines persist into the new two division alignment: the inequity of 9 conference games giving some teams 5 conference home games and some 4, USC is still banned from post-season play....[MORE]

NCAA FOOTBALL PREVIEW: SUN BELT
August 15, 2011
By David, SCS.com Staff Writer
As has been usual in the past few seasons, the Sun Belt took a fair amount of beating in non-conference play versus other FBS competition in 2010. However, the Sun Belt placed three teams in bowl games for the first time last season and came away with a winning 2-1 record in those bowl games. Troy and Florida International will be looking to build off those bowl victories as the calendar turns to....[MORE]
