Projecting the 20 most dangerous offenses for 2016
3 AAC offenses mentioned among the top 20 in the country. The rest of the G4 had 3 mentioned total for 4 conferences. I really like the preseason press the AAC is getting.

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/26251...son/page/2

South Florida

Following a 1-3 start to the 2015 season, South Florida was safely off the nation's radar. But the Bulls might burst onto the scene this year.

Dual-threat quarterback Quinton Flowers accumulated 2,290 yards and 22 touchdowns as a passer while running for 991 yards and 12 scores. Most importantly for USF, he steadily progressed.

Plus, the Bulls return nearly all of their skill-position production.

There's standout running back Marlon Mack, who has consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, along with his backups in Darius Tice and D'Ernest Johnson. Leading receiver Rodney Adams is back.

South Florida finished Nos. 35 and 41 in total and scoring offense, respectively, last year. It would be shocking if either number fell.


Tulsa

Behind five outings of 160-plus yards, Keyarris Garrett exploded for 96 receptions, 1,588 yards and eight touchdowns last season. Conner Floyd added 45-458-5. How can Tulsa possible replace that?

A healthy Keevan Lucas will suffice.

He was headed toward a spectacular season until a knee injury ended his campaign. Lucas will be the headliner, but Josh Atkinson eclipsed the 1,000-yard barrier in 2015. Not bad.

While the Golden Hurricane need a fourth receiver after Justin Hobbs, they're in good shape at running back. D'Angelo Brewer and Ramadi Warren are poised to match Zack Langer's contributions.

Quarterback Dane Evans has all the pieces necessary to build on a 4,332-yard, 25-touchdown campaign.

Houston

Houston slowly moved from the nation's periphery into the spotlight during the 2015 season. Fear not, Cougars fans, your team is on center stage heading into 2016.

Greg Ward Jr. is a better scrambler and designed runner than he is a quarterback, but head coach Tom Herman helped the dual-threat weapon settle in behind center. Ward completed 67 percent of his passes last year.

Demarcus Ayers turned pro, so Ward must find a new go-to receiver.

That probably won't be overly difficult, though, since Chance Allen, Steven Dunbar and Linell Bonner each return. Plus, Texas transfer Duke Catalon and Oklahoma State transfer Ra'Shaad Samples will join the offense.

In Herman (and Ward) Houston trusts.

It's still free publicity for AAC.

Tulsa could be very lethal. Another year in the system, and we don't lose a lot and what we do lose is probably being replaced with equal or better talent/skill.

Need a defense to be lethal.

Looks like someone needs to go back to English class...

Well I was mainly refering to the offense not the whole team. Although the defense should improve. Got some more talent coming in. Heard one of the new CB's ran a 4.2 40 four times.
