Very nice CBS!!! Y'all know the good part is Coach K and staff are gonna have these guys with another BIG chip on their shoulders this year shooting for Top 20 or much higher!!!!

For what it's worth, CFN says FAU had the 12th best season of the 130.

Not in the poles, but mentioned as one of the big opening weekend games in the way-to-early preseason polls:

Alabama Crimson Tide supplant Clemson Tigers in post-spring 2018 Top 25

Kind of a follow up article on the USA Today poll;

College football conference outlooks after end of spring practice

Just for offseason boredom reading!

Rivals has a thread on our #17 ranking today;

FAU ranked 17 in preseason...wtf | Rivals Message Boards

Off season reading, mostly negative comments but some support too! I do agree with this though, it is nice but it means nothing! Gotta win the games!!!

SI after spring ranking slots FAU at #24!

Post-Spring Top 25: Resetting the Pecking Order at the Offseason's Midpoint

Nice but meaningless!

The only area I am concerned with is O line. We have Bennet coming in and the Tulane transfer. ANY WORD ON BRILES. If he comes in , I'm putting my worry hat away.We will be solid all over the field.

Excuse me......Riles.

Between the JUCO and GT centers coming in I think we will be fine. One can play center and the other should be able to move to guard.

The oline is way ahead of where they were last year.
