Year end ranking

Yahoo's Mike Huguenin did an end of the year ranking of the top 120 teams in FBS. SMU was 45
http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/n ... ngs_011112"45. SMU (8-5)
The buzz: Despite a bowl win, just the second for the Mustangs since 1984, the season was a mild disappointment. The offense wasn’t as potent as expected, and that has to bother coach June Jones."

Disappointing second half to the season. After the UCF game, I think we were ranked right around top 30.
Top 30 in everything we do!
We should set a target for this to be true within 5 years.

The real disappointment is we lost to teams ahead of us except for Navy. Beat Navy (at home) and the season appear right. 9-4 and losing to two top 25 teams (while beating one) would go a long way towards respectability.
But man, have we come a long way from the 99, 117, 85 type rankings.

At no point in the next 5 years(and beyond) will UCLA be better than SMU.
Mark my words.
