Athlon Rankings


Recommended Posts

I got my copy of the Big 12 Athlon Preview yesterday. Here's a quick breakdown.

 

Unit Rankings (Nebraska) (All Rankings are conference, except where noted)

 

QB (11th), RB (4th), WR/TE (10th), OL (3rd), DL (2nd)(10th Nationally), LB (8th), DB (3rd)

 

Division Finish

North

Nebraska

Kansas

Missouri

Colorado

Kansas State

 

South

Oklahoma

Texas

Oklahoma State

Texas Tech

Baylor

Texas A&M

 

More to come...

 

Fourth overall at running back?!? Besides OU, I can't name another team that has two proven HBs returning. Who did they rank ahead of us? Please tell me it's not OSU, or even worse CU! :bs:

OSU has one of the best backs in the conference returning.

 

Correct. OU is 1, OSU 2, Mizzou 3. OSU makes sense, but Mizzou? I guess Washington is a 1,000 yd back... but geez, Roy almost was, and he was a backup!

 

Yeah Mizz is too high. What was KU? I'm curious to know all their position rankings....do you mind sharing them?

Exactly, they have ONE of the best backs in the Big 12. Not two of them like the Huskers do.

It wouldn't surprise me to see the same thing as last year happen in the Big 12 South, only with Oklahoma State replacing Texas Tech. I can see all three teams going 11-1 and splitting their head-to-head games. It's hard to imagine any of the North teams beating any of those three, although upsets usually do end up happening at one point or another.

Let's play guess the top nine...

 

10. Ole Miss (already announced)

9. Virginia Tech

8. Ohio State

7. Alabama

6. Penn State

5. Oklahoma State

4. USC

3. Texas

2. Oklahoma

1. Florida

 

Well, here's how they turned out:

 

10. Ole Miss

9. Oklahoma State

8. Virginia Tech

7. Penn State

6. Alabama

5. Ohio State

4. USC

3. Texas (link)

2. Oklahoma*

1. Florida*

 

* These haven't been confirmed, but I'm just assuming they would never do a blasphemous thing like not putting Jebow at #1.
