TCU only MWC on the list. Alot wrong with this list in my opinion. Arkansas at 16? Navy before BYU or Utah?

You're preaching to the choir bud.



BYU historically has always been hammered every time they have to start over at QB. I can't imagine anyone losing sleep over any poll released before at least Spring ball has been played. They don't even know who all is going pro yet.

I am not losing sleep but how many years now has the mwc had two or there in the final top 25? How long until they give the conference a little respect. These guys have crap for brains.

Schlabach is an SEC and BCS homer. Dude was the beat writer for Georgia, so not surprised here at all. He is not familiar with western football at all, and definitely not MWC football. A smart dude puts at least 2 MWC teams in any preseason poll these days.

I'm glad we're not in his top 25. I hope we don't make any pre-season top 25 rankings. If I were a voter I wouldn't put us there. We're losing way too much. Does this mean I don't think we can be a top 25 team? No, it just means that I wouldn't expect it. Utah is losing a lot too. TCU should have their way with everyone next year. Who else from the MWC would you put in the top 25?

We lose/lost an awful lot. We lost our starting defensive line. Three linebackers and a safety. We also lost our QB, both TEs, our starting center and possibly our starting running back and fullback.



That's 13 or 14 starters.
