Surprised to see UH has a running back at #5. Click the word highlights are pretty darn good. Lots of trouble for our conference mates this year coming from Houston.

There is always a UConn to trip you up. It won't be a cakewalk for the Coogs, everyone will be shooting for them and the AAC has enough dangerous teams with quality players

This is going to be down year for the conference as a whole. The bottom dwellers won't make a big enough jump and most of the top teams have lost to much. I would be shocked if more than 2 teams win 9 games or more before the bowl games. As for UCONN type trips as long as our starting Qb and RBs aren't injured and best defensive player isn't ejected I think we'll be just fine.

It's more likely that we lose to OU and Louisville than a single conference game. It's possible we have a better team but a worse record. I just don't see a conference loss for us this year unless we lose everyone (like UCONN).

YES, the AAC is definitely much improved and won't be a cakewalk for everyone in it including Houston but pretty confident Herman will have his young men ready for every game.

I think what's going to surprise many this season is going to be Houston's talented pass rush. Scarry good is what pops to mind when I think opposing QB's, that good.

There was only a UConn last year, because Ward was hurt.

I felt like we would lose 4 other games last year (Louisville, Memphis, Navy, Florida State), but time and time again was proven wrong. Herman has a special ability to get his teams focused and ready to play. Go watch some of his locker room speeches and tell me you aren't ready to go run through a wall.
