Welcome to an article where unqualified writers predict what will happen in 2019. We’re going to do conference champs, breakout teams, bust teams, the Heisman winner, the College Football Playoff Field and the National Champion.
No one asked for this, but it’s fun. Also we’re a little too busy to explain every prediction, so we’re going to just drop these and leave. You can figure out who these teams or players are on your own time, I guess.
