Exclamation Which Sun Belt school will be the first to get ranked?
I'm sure most of the votes will be homer votes, but I'm still interested to see the results.

Completely OT: I think your avatar picture (baseball logo) should be the main MT logo, and also be used for your football helmets. Looks old-school classy.

Yeah, I really like it; I'd be curious to see what it looks like on a football helmet.

When I get home, I'll attempt a mock-up.

RE: Which Sun Belt school will be the first to get ranked?
I do not believe any SBC school will be ranked that early. I do think that WKU, ASU and UL have a chance to be ranked next year, but our conference does not get enough respect to get us ranked that early. Not even with wins over Kentucky and Tennessee [WKU], Auburn and Missouri [ASU] or Arkansas and Kansas State [UL].

If the unthinkable happens and all three schools sweep those games, and one of the three manages to make an undefeated run while the other two are 11-1 and 10-2, the winner will be in a BCS game.

4-0 against Pine Bluff, Auburn, Troy and Memphis will not get you ranked.

No clue, so I'm not gonna vote.

Our strength of schedule will go a long way in putting the brakes on anyone getting ranked.

I haven't voted, but Sun Belt football turns 13 years this season and we are still having this conversation. At this rate it is about as likely for it to be USA, Appalachian State, Texas State, or Georgia Southern as it is for the front runners today.

RE: Which Sun Belt school will be the first to get ranked?
I figure Louisiana has the best shot, as they are coming off a bowl win (should start a little higher in the rankings). If they can do what they did last year (and no reason to think otherwise), then HOPEFULLY they will be ranked.

Would love it if Louisiana & Arkansas State finished the season ranked. Would do wonders for the SBC image. Doubt it will happen, but I'd be elated for both teams and the SBC in general.

I used my "homer" vote; but I'll also say 2014; not this coming season. I'd love to be proven wrong regarding 2013. 04-cheers

I feel Ga Southern will be ranked in the next 5 years, but I think an SBC team will be ranked next year. I picked Ark St., but UL is a close second. Maybe there will be 2 teams ranked during the season.

Picked WKU - Petrino bump gets them in the high 20s after a few wins.
