all we have to do is run the table and we are in the big game.

oh wait. acid flashback.
 
Baylor at 23?

They'll climb higher before they drop, too.

First 3 weeks of their schedule (and I'm not making this up):

Home vs Northwestern State
Hove vs SMU
Away at Rice

After that is when they start to falter. Home loss vs Okie Lite, road upset at Iowa State. Bye. Then they'll beat Kansas at home. 4-2 at the mid-point.

Last 6 games might very well keep them from making a bowl game:

Away at Texas
Home vs TCU
Away at Oklahoma
Home vs KSU
Away at TTU
Away at WVU

Your hate is noticeable. Mine 2

Get the receivers from Texass on top
 
Bama and LSU are seriously overrated, but otherwise looks pretty good.
 
Preseason polls are worthless and stupid. I reserve the right to change my mind when we start getting ranked again.
 
Yeah. Especially when you look at their record against opponents that had winning seasons last year. Overrated.
I'd take a few of their players though, especially Herd, dude is a beast. Built a lot like Chris Brown, tall but about 230. To the point, I'd say top 20 is more likely.
