After an offseason and preseason of talking, it’s time to answer: What do we think will actually happen in this college football season? Alex, Richard, and Godfrey put their names on some picks in this subscriber episode. At the end of the season, we’ll dig up the time capsule and see how we did:

The national champ
The Heisman finalists
The Group of 5 player of the year

Our favorite games of the year
The first coach fired

A ranked-to-unranked team
