There has been too much infighting around this board lately, so I thought I might change things up a bit. How about a contest?

Tomorrow is the start of C-USA Media Days, and the conference preseason poll should be released. Any guesses as to how each division will look when the poll is released?

As long as a Mod doesn't object, I have +3 reputation points for anyone that can accurately predict the correct C-USA Preseason Poll order. Please have your projections posted by tonight 12 midnight central time. Good luck to those that participate.

I'm always wrong, here goes:
East
1. Marshall
2. FIU
3. FAU
4. WKU
5. MTSU
6. Charlotte
7. ODU

West
1. UNT
2. LT
3. USM
4. UTSA
5. UAB
6. Rice
7. UTEP

Since it's near impossible to get rep points on this board, I'll do it.

This is not my prediction for where I feel everyone should rank, but how I feel the media and coaches will perceive the league.

Also, I feel it will be impossible for anybody to get all 14 in the correct order. Maybe plus one or plus two for predicting the two division champions? Just a thought.

How about I give +2 to anyone that can predict the top 2 from each division in the correct order. That can be a consolation prize.

6 right, I may pass out at my averageness

Okay. so no one got the preseason poll correct. And, no one was able to get the top 2 in each division correct either....

But there is some good news, these preseason polls are never how the standing end up, so you may have the right order when all the games are played. Thanks to each of you that played. I'll be giving each one of you a +1 for giving it the old college try.

Here is the actual preseason poll
