The Solid Verbal: One of these teams should 100% win the College Football Playoff
The top of the mountain
Joshua S. Kelly-USA TODAY Sports
On the final installment of The Solid Verbal’s preseason countdown, we try to answer the following questions:
• Can USC, even against a stacked schedule, ride a talented offense led by Juju Smith-Schuster and Ronald Jones, and a promising back eight on defense to a top ten year?
• Should we automatically assume Ole Miss takes a step back after losing Laremy Tunsil, Laquon Treadwell, and Robert Nkemdiche to the draft, or can Chad Kelly lead another huge, playoff-caliber campaign in 2016?
• If Michigan is a QB away from becoming a consistent power, can Jim Harbaugh get Wilton Speight or John O'Korn up to speed quickly?
• Is Florida State being stacked everywhere (beside QB) AND getting Clemson at home enough to get them back into the playoff?
• Where is Oklahoma strong and where might the Sooners struggle as they try to return to college football’s final four?
• What non-football factors might hold Deshaun Watson and Clemson back in their pursuit of getting over the final college football hump?
• Is this the year LSU’s offense and defense are equally explosive and dangerous?
• IFFFFF Alabama is going to be held back from the playoff, what might do so?
