In response to a tweet by CFB Home, who has the best chance to win a National Championship next season?
Best chance at winning a National Championship out of Texas, Florida, Oregon, and Michigan. I would have to say the Texas Longhorns because out of the four mentioned, they, maybe even the Florida Gators are the only teams who ended the season with a statement proven, such as defeating the Georgia Bulldogs in the Allstate Sugar Bowl. It is hard to consider Florida a contender on a National Championship level considering that it was Michigan they defeated in the Peach Bowl, but it was a statement proven. The statement was proven against a Michigan team that looked like a totally different team going against the Ohio State Buckeyes.
On another note both Texas and Florida defeated Georgia last season, but I would give the edge to Texas for doing it for something much more prestige, such as the Allstate Sugar Bowl Championship. They also defeated a more established in the season Georgia Bulldogs in comparison, but then again who knows how much that loss against the Alabama Crimson took out of Georgia.
Both Oregon and Michigan are in the same boat as far as not being consistent enough with competing against top level teams even in their own conference, so that alone crosses them out of the picture of being considered in my book. What do you think?

Clemson has a good chance to repeat in 2019. I would like to see either Texas or Georgia win the National Championship since we fans are weary of the Clemson Tigers vs Alabama Crimson Tide series.
I would definitely love Texas to win. And with this Alabama series, I would be up for seeing someone other than them going up against Clemson.
I agree with you that a game other than Alabama vs Clemson for the championship title run is done for now. Get some new blood in the next championship game. I am already weary of seeing the Tide versus the Tigers.
A great shakeup would be Clemson vs Georgia, Ohio State vs Clemson, or maybe even Ohio State vs Georgia. Might even through Oklahoma in the mixture too, but be gone Bama, lol.
Seeing Alabama in the championship game every year is like seeing your favorite show in reruns that you what is going to happen in one scene since it is in our minds after being drilled a lot.
Exactly! I watched the national championship in a bar, and I believe I was the only one rooting for Clemson to win.
I was hoping that Clemson would win since there are a lot of Louisiana State University fans who despise Nick Saban since he now coaches Alabama which is one of their most bitter out of state rivals.
Lol, I could see that. Thinking about it, they could have been the ones receiving those championships with Nick Saban’s coaching expertise versus him taking his skills to Alabama.
That is why many Fighting Tigers fans are mad at him since after he left LSU to coach the Miami Dolphins to Alabama it felt like he stabbed them in the back.
That is good! I try to not watch when I know that my team will get demolished.
I would be mad too, but luckily I have never experienced that. My team, which is the Illinois Fighting Illini sucks every single year, lol.
That is true. People in my opinion take sports too seriously. Due to health issue like high blood pressure I take it easy on football games.
I try not to watch, especially when I know that my team will get demolished
I have my work of taking surveys and blogging that keeps me busy.
I have a 25% chance of guessing correctly…
You cannot fail going with either Texas or Florida because the other two teams always fall off during the season.
so you have a 50% chance of guessing correctly
Yep! That is correct. My vote is still with Texas though, plus everything is bigger in Texas: Titties, booties, hamburgers, the state itself, etc : )
Texas is barely a third the size of Alaska, and only slightly larger than Cali…
For Texas, if a QB does not transfer to Oklahoma, then their toughest test in the Big 12 could come from Iowa State. Florida could win the SEC East, but could they won’t beat Alabama next season. Oregon pretty much has a clear path. Their only tough game would be against Washington next season. Michigan still won’t be able to beat Ohio State because Fields transferred to the Buckeyes. Also, the balance of power in the Big Ten could shift to the West because Northwestern, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Nebraska figure to be good next season with Michigan State and Penn State falling back. Out of the four, I would pick Oregon.

I won’t be able to pick a team until all of these transfers are done. Also, I need to see the schedule to see their non-conference tilts.
That is definitely understandable! I would love to see your input on this with only these 4 teams.
