Came out today, we're number 40.

40 sounds somewhat fair.

Its actually kind of really harsh haha. A lot of line talk and a lot of special teams talk. Mostly they ranked us taht high because of our schedule (thats what it said). I just hope our line proves them wrong.

I would have upgraded offense to C+... defense to B and special teams to C...
they predict 7-5 season while I believe we can win at least 8 games...

At 40 that would be a huge improvement over last year, so that would be good by me. Plus my friend is a huge Miami fan so it's nice to see we're being picked to be a little better than them.

40 sounds about right. I think I had my "fan goggles" on thinking we would be around 30. We are coming off the worst season in school history, where we were completely dominated in almost every game. Plus, we still have question marks about the O-line. I would rather start out with lower expectations and surprise people. I can't wait for Sept. 6th.

40 sounds right and 7-5 is very fair. As long as we show a drastic improvement accross the OL I will be happy! I would give the offense a D, defense a C+, and special teams an F for preseason! Special teams need A LOT of work!!!!!!!!
