Jvhn177 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I think moving Braxton Miller to a hybrid WR position much like Jalen Marshall was last year was a good move for him and the team because he wouldn't have made it in the NFL as a QB and the team could use his athleticism elsewhere instead of being in a quarterback competition where his talent would be wasted.

Germanshepherd Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Georgia State seems a bit high for a team that is 1-23 in the last 2 years. Temple at 52 seems a bit high as well. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSUcelticsWON95 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Mississippi State isn't in the top-25? Weird. And look at Georgia Southern receiving votes And I'm kind of surprised Michigan State is that far up. I don't expect them to do poorly by any means, but after losing Langford and Lippett, I'd expect them to struggle a little more than last year.

hailstateunis Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I'm glad Mississippi State isn't ranked (Well technically they're at 26). They always seem to play better under the radar.I'm not going to blindly defend my team here; I'll wait for the season and see how it goes. That being said, the "returning starters" thing is bs. They were infamously two-deep last year and in several cases the backups played way more time than the graduated "starters."http://on.thec-l.com/1Sopa9h http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all honesty, I don't think they will be that bad, provided Prescott can duplicate his performance of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 (Well technically they're at 26)Nope, technically they're unranked because the Top 25 is just that, the Top 25.

Before the bowl season, the West only lost three games...total....to non-division teams (Auburn lost to Georgia, Arkansas lost to Georgia, Texas A&M lost to Missouri ).I think the worst record in the SEC West will be 7-5, assuming no team gets ravaged by injuries. You can really toss these 7 teams into a hat and draw lots and that prediction wouldn't be bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy B Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 The Big Ten announced their new scheduling model today that will begin in 2016:-Increase to 9 conference games-At least 1 game against an out-of-conference Power 5 team (Notre Dame and BYU will count towards this)-No FCS opponents.Teams will likely be able to keep their schedule that doesn't follow this if there's already a contract.

That was not the intention of my statement.
