Only FAU is higher in the conference, and they have us ahead of a lot of other G5 teams. Gotta keep the momentum up. Anything short of 8 wins is a step back.

They have us ahead of SMU.  I hope somebody has a stealthy sock puppet account over there, posts this thing, and points that out.

The 27 plays of more than 40 yards is a stat I had not heard and is crazy just to read in a sentence.

FAU is a little too high.   The article was written before Chris Kiffin's departure, and that will hurt.

Troy way too low (1 spot ahead of us).   I like where we are and I agree with the final assessment.

This is encouraging to me.  I would like to see us get in the top 50 consistently.

Man we are 8 places behind Ark! Gotta like our chances for success this season! GMG

We have done the easy part, which is getting respect from the media. Now we have to do the hard part, which is actually backing it up on the field.

Interesting that Troy is our next door neighbor.
