As we move toward the first full schedule of college football this week, the latest predictions have rolled in, this time from Mark Schlabach of ESPN.com.

Schlabach broke down in detail each Power 5 conference, and laid out how they will unfold this season, including upsets, conference champions, coaching awards and player accolades. As has been the case for the last few years, Schlabach went heavy with Georgia and Alabama.

Schlabach called for Georgia to win the SEC, while Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa would be the Offensive Player of the Year, Auburn DL Derrick Brown the Defensive Player of the Year and LSU DB/KR Derek Stingley, Jr. the Freshman of the Year.

“Kirby Smart’s team will finally get over the hump against its nemesis in the SEC championship game,” Schlabach wrote. “After jumping out to a 10-point halftime lead behind Jake Fromm and D’Andre Swift, the Bulldogs will — wait for it — hold on against Alabama for a 31-27 victory. The Bulldogs and Crimson Tide will join Clemson and Oklahoma in the CFP.”

He also added that Missouri will start 8-0, while Auburn will lose four games.

“They have a freshman starting at quarterback, Bo Nix, and they’ll play arguably the most difficult schedule in the FBS,” Schlabach wrote. “Auburn opens the season against Oregon in Arlington, Texas, and plays SEC road games at Texas A&M, Florida and LSU. Then the Tigers plays Georgia and Alabama at home in November. If Auburn loses five games or more for the fifth time in six seasons, Gus Malzahn won’t keep his job — but at least he’ll leave as a very rich man, with a reported $27 million buyout. I’m guessing the Tigers are good enough to keep him around through 2019.”

In the coaching ranks, the ESPN writer gave Alabama’s Nick Saban the Coach of the Year award, Auburn’s Gus Malzahn the hot seat crown, and Alabama defensive coordinator Pete Golding the “coordinator on the rise” award.

For play on the field, he called Notre Dame at Georgia on Sept. 21 the “non-conference game of the year,” LSU at Alabama on Nov. 9 the “conference game of the year” and Texas A&M over Georgia on Nov. 23 the “upset of the year.”
