Way early 2016 CFP prediction

I won't assign an order.
I think Clemson gets in after another undefeated regular season.
Obviously the SEC champion (Bama or Tenn imo)
The big XII champ who I believe will be Baylor
Michigan is my dark horse.
Hard to say the PAC 12 doesn't get in but I think Stanford losing Hogan hurts their chances and Oregon has another new qb.
What do you guys think?

I think it's way to early,but my opinion doesn't really matter. The only opinion on TigerNet that does matter is Dabo's,and I think he will stick to what got him there this season;one game at a time.

No need for Michigan to be a dark horse. They have enough talent, will produce a decent QB because of Jim Harbaugh and they have a super easy schedule.

This is the safe prediction with Tennessee and Baylor really being the only two teams on the outside of that group, that I could see making things interesting. I would be shocked if OSU is able to get to the playoff with all the players they are losing. Barrett comes back but they legitimately lose every other great player on both sides of the ball. Iowa won't repeat and neither will MSU. UCLA and Oregon could probably factor in there if they can get better consistency.

Baylor will contend in the Big 12 but OU brings back most of their offensive power. I think Tennessee has a good shot of winning the East but I wouldn't count out UGA. I'm sure each conference is going to have that surprise team.

The last two recruiting classes at Michigan have been terrible.

The last two recruiting classes at Michigan have been terrible. It is hard to hide that.
They play Ohio St and Michigan St on the road.
They were smoked by Ohio State last season in the Big House.

Would love to see
1.Clemson 2. Michigan 3. USC (if you need clarification you need a new board) 4. Tenn
5a - TCU, but just don't see them getting close this year 5b - Bama for rematch
Think that would make for a fun and new group to battle it out.

No matter what we think is going to happen chances are that it probably wont. Lets be honest who saw Michigan State getting into the CFP last year? Or Iowa go undefeated (in a weak B1G) until the conference championship? However there are 4 things that will most certainly happen in life: birth, taxes, death and Deshaun Watson winning the Heisman AND a National Championship.

I guess everyone is completely overlooking that trip to FSU. If we lose that one, I don't see us in the CFP.

FSU won't be a cakewalk but heck we only need a couple stops or turnovers and they can't stop us. The acccg could be very interesting either rematch with UNC or new coaches at Miami/vatech...can never sleep on gatech but we should match up favorably.
I like Tennessee but I feel like they will pull a tennessee. Alabama will take a step back but not much.
I think a healthy nd could be the most balanced team in the country, they still have to navigate a rollercoaster schedule.
USC or ucla could come out of the pac12 and I think the big12 gets locked out unless someone goes undefeated.
Clemson tennessee ND USC/ucla

Road trips to Auburn, FSU and GT worry but I think the Tigers will be fine. Kevin Steele, Nuff said, GT only cause that place gives us nightmares and FSU should be the toughest test. I would love to see Waston repay the beating Boyd took in 2013 but Clemson should win at least by a couple of scores. Final 4, Clemson, Bama, OSU and Boomer Sooner. Go Tigers!
