AAC now has more ranked teams than the Big 12, Pac 12 and ACC.

Sure beats worrying about where we would be in the Bottom 10. Enjoy the ride.

Navy is 7-1..and we have to travel to Navy...Navy is 5-0 at home

Yikes....that Navy game scares me.

We may have to run the table to get back in Top 20


I think McBryde wrecks shop against Navy...

I think our improved DL play - along with their depth - will be the biggest change against defending the option this year. But yes, having the LBs to finish the plays will be awesome.

I don't understand how we dropped 9 spots losing to a ranked opponent while Cinci moved up several spots barely beating the second worse team in the conference.

Their loss to tOSU is better than our loss to Memphis. We arguably have one or two more quality wins but they look better than us on paper. That said, I think we’d beat Cinci on a neutral field.
