This is about where I'm at, too. I would only add I expect Texas to make a significant jump this year if Herman is their guy. I also think you're spot on about Oregon. Their identity has taken a huge hit in recent years and I struggle to see them bottle that success again. Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Texas should be on a up swing, but what I really want to watch is UCLA over the next two yrs. Would be fun to see NU/UCLA in a Rose Bowl playoff game. Fireworks galore. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
junior4949 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 When one brings up Texas and their culture, I can't understand why people expect a quick turn around at Florida. The wheels on that program were coming off under Meyer. His worst record of his head coaching career came his last year at Florida. I don't expect a quick turn around at Florida. Mullen is very overrated as a coach. I still can't understand why people wanted him to be our next coach. In 9 seasons, his teams have only finished the season ranked in the top 25 three times. He's a career 60% winning coach. I don't see this changing at Florida. From the list, I see UCLA making the biggest leap. Their upper classmen came from recruiting classes ranked #12 and #13. Given their schedule this year, they have four games against stiff competition in OU, USC, Washington, and Stanford. I could definitely see them going 8-4. Texas might very well have a better overall record as I only see 3-4 losses on their schedule. However, I'm not sure why they even made the list considering they are the only team on the list that doesn't have a new coach. 1 Quote Link to comment
