BOLD predictions for the 2023 football season

Posted: 8/17/2023 11:48:08 AM

You need to give me a BOLD player prediction, a BOLD team prediction, a BOLD conference prediction, and a BOLD national prediction. Be BOLD!

BOLD player prediction - Kurtis Rourke forgoes his final year of eligibility and is drafted.
BOLD team prediction - We host College Gameday on October 28
BOLD conference prediction - Eastern Michigan wins the West
BOLD national prediction - Neither Bama nor Clemson make their conference title games nor the playoff

BOLD player prediction: Jacoby Jones has more receiving yards than Sam. (Not Bold: Sam leaves as the career leader in TD, Jacoby Top 5)

BOLD team prediction: For the first time ever we have TWO 1,000 yard receivers. And to make it even more bold... 1,000 yard rusher + two 1,000 yard receivers.

BOLD conference prediction: Miami beats Miami.

BOLD national prediction: Arch Manning replaces Quinn Ewers early and never looks back.

Not so bold prediction - We have a solid season and win the East, we shit the bed and lose a winnable MAC Championship game, then have a nice bowl win.

I would say that it's very bold to predict a MAC east title the year after winning the MAC east and a year when we're favored to do it again.

That's a really fair point. Based on our track record, my prediction was more of a 2024 prediction.
