I won't be posting an FCS forecast this year.
These projections are based on the power rankings computed through the end of the 2006 season.
There were some adjustments made in July 2007 based on numbers of returning starters and lettermen.
For the most part, these projections reflect my guess as to what would happen if last year's teams
played this year's schedule, which of course won't happen so there will be some obvious "errors",
such as three teams all ending up undefeated.					Click Here for Bowl Projections
