ESPN's Mock College Football Draft

ESPN.com writers Pat Forde, Ivan Maisel and Mark Schlabach took on the task today of selecting 40 teams out of the 120 FBS schools to 'separate the haves from the have-nots.' LINK. I believe they mean if they wanted to start a 40 team FBS, then these are the 40 teams that are relevant enough to make the cut.

I guess you could say the point of this is really nothing other than this is the end of dead week before fall camp begins and the talking heads from ESPN.com need some face time before Corso, Herbstreit, May, and Holtz hit the tellies and steal some thunder.
