Seems fairly optimistic. Picked to finish in 6th place which I like, but I think we finish ahead of UCONN.

UCONN will not be a very good football team. They forget to mention that the reason they were good before was the good quarterback play that paired with a good running back. They will struggle offensively again this season, and not be able to keep up with the good offenses that are joining the lead.

Rutgers beat a lot of bad teams last season, and heavily relied on a defense that graduated a lot of talent. They had 7 players drafted last season. The offense wasn't very good, and although they have a really good receiver, it will struggle again this season. Downgrade the defense (10th nationally last year), and this becomes a very average football team very quickly.

UCF, Louisville, and Cincy are the top of the league this season, and I think SMU is next, maybe on par with UCF depending on how well the new offense pans out.

I agree with the article in that we will have a new D Line and we will have to see how they play.
