The college football season finally (finally!) kicks off tonight, with Oregon, Boise St., Utah and Utah St. providing fans with their first glimpse of legitimate pigskin action. Bruce Feldman is in Boise today, and took some time out of his schedule to answer fans' questions about the biggest matchups of the year .
Mark (Paris, France)
Still wondering what you think about Matt Barkley and Garrett Gilbert. I know Barkley will get significantly more playing time this year but don't both look like they're going to have great futures?
Mel Kiper
Very impressed by what I've seen from Barkley and heard from his teammates about him. Havent seen much of Gilbert other than at Elite 11 a long time ago but in my visit to Austin last week Colt spoke highly of him.
Roger (TX)
Is Texas Tech really that down this year?
Bruce Feldman
No, I don't think so. I saw them last week and they have a lot of talent and QB Taylor Potts will have a big year. Ultimately I think they're a year away from winning the Big 12 South in 2010 because UT, OU and OK St will all have major holes to fill. Full transcript
