NCAA Football - Which of these top ranked teams will lose first in 2008?

Settled as Clemson

Clemson lost 34-10 to Alabama. Only team on list to lose.

http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaaf/scoreboard

Background:

Teams are from 8/1/2008 USA Today preseason poll. http://collegefootball.rivals.com/rankings.asp?Ranking=2&Week=105&Year=2008&team=ALABAMA
This is on a day to day basis. If two teams lose the same day but at different times that is option 10 in the choices. All play pretty easy schedules first week but who knows?

Good picture! Can Appalachian St. take out LSU on week one? I say yes for $50. Lightening does strike twice.

App. State won't be the same team as last year, but I was there last year so I have to bet on them. Funny how Michigan isn't even on this list since they decided paying a IAA school $400,000 to come dethrone them at the Big House was a bad idea.

You can check out all their schedules at http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/rankingsindex.
Make sure you pay attention to the date and not just the game # for each team as
some teams have early open weeks. OSU v. USC on 9/13 seems to be what everyone is
banking on, but that's week 3. I'm betting someone loses before then.
