Anyway, up to #101 Ball State, and no sign of the Owls yet…….

One more and we can safely rest assured of a double digit spot…triple would have been tough to deal with from a pride standpoint…….

"Who is No. 100? The last team in the triple digits. Our next university currently has under construction a recording studio endowed by a 25-time Grammy Award-winning musician."

No Worries, not us.  ;)

U A B has that honor. We are above them in this countdowm.  The next school was in the New york times puzzle on tuesday any clues.

That makes 7 of our 12 opponents ranked from 100-120, a pretty weak schedule overall. Something our new aggressive D and young O should benefit from. TURN OUR GUYS LOOSE, LET THEM HAVE FUN, and we WILL BE bowling again in 2010!

yeah, our strength of schedule will hurt us when we make that BCS bowl run. ;D

Yeah you are 100% right, our 12-0 won't mean much will it. Ha ha!!!

We are next at #97.

Would say you are correct Burrowing Owl

Turns out this is the same preview as The Quad…appearantly he moved it to its own URL, and will pick back up with the New York Times, with a shorter version, in July sometime…but will keep the crux of the preview on www.presnapread.com

You're right, this is the same guy from the Quad.  I didn't see that the first go 'round.  This guy has done some homework in years past so I give his pre-season picks more credibility than many others even though it still doesn't mean anything.  He just provides a lot of good info on every team.

I would guess we will be very near the 100 mark.

We did come in at #97.

"Who is the next Florida school to join the Sunshine State’s power triumvirate of Florida State, Miami and Florida? Is it U.C.F.? South Florida? It very well might be Florida Atlantic."

LOL, come on georgiaOwl, FAU's D was crappy last season as well, lol. We are all hoping the new DCs can turn both Ds around. I think the difference is he saw FIU on ESPN sportcenter all this month and decided the football program should be good as well. It will be interesting to see what he writes about FIU, Troy and MTSU though.
