AP/Coaches poll predictions
Here is my predictions for the real preseason polls.


UCF - 17 in Coaches, 20 in AP (the coaches will respect UCF more than the writers, unfortunately).

Receiving votes.

Memphis - approximately 30 vote points, good for around 28th
USF - approximately 15 vote points, good for around 35th
Houston - approximately 15 vote points, good for around 35th
Navy and Temple - a couple of vote points.

Others:

Boise will come in ranked around 22nd. SDSU, Fresno St, and FAU among others may receive votes in the polls.

What do you think?

Every single year, without fail, our teams are undervalued in the polls and have to fight their way upward.

Tough part like ucf showed for underrated AAC teams. They won't move you high enough. At one point we were behind a 4 loss Mississippi State team.

UCF will be 20-25. No one else will get votes. Its stupid but that's what usually happens.

Agree and they shouldn’t unless and until they are 7-1 or better.

Wrong, we usually get 3-4 teams receiving votes in preseason polls. USF was ranked 18th, I believe, in the preseason polls last year. Houston was ranked in preseason a couple years ago, IIRC.

I do not like UCF, but I hope you blow out FAU by 50 to shut Lane up.

FAU rides on the coattails of Kiffin and for some reason ESPN is obsessed with Kiffin. FAU plays in what has become the easiest league in football so I suppose they will do well this year,

RE: AP/Coaches poll predictions
fau is so interesting to me....on paper looking at what they did last year, what is returning and what they are adding, they should be dominant
they literally had no qb and marginal wr and was top 10 in the nation in scoring ..they add 4star qb transfer from oklahoma, and return johnson (last chance u) from injury and a lot of p5 transfer WR

but then bring the question of briles..last years offense was by far the best kiffin has even been on...,but was technically worse than the average briles offense...how much was briles and how much was kiffin....can they produce those insane numbers with briles
if spring games are indication, fau had a surprisingly mediocre/subpar offensive spring game with numerous turnovers and houston had its best offensive spring game since 2011 with only 3 weeks of prep..

but all these arguments could also be made for ucf with frost

fau vs ucf is going to be a good game

My predictions: (based on spring reports I’m reading)
Boise will come in at 16
UCF At 21
Memphis and San Diego St will just miss the top 25
Houston, FAU and Fresno St will all receive double digit votes

No. FAU will be ranked so Oklahoma can get a top 25 win (blowout) to start the season. If their 1st game was against UCF there's no way in Hades they would be ranked in the preseason 07-coffee3

Houston will start the season like seabiscuit did against war admiral in the race of a the century and will proceed to crush every loser opponent we face concluding with a New Year’s Day blowout victory against some stupid A5 team
