I'll set the over/under line for EMU to be ranked #78.

RE: 2017 Orlando Sentinel College Football Rankings - Rocket75 - 05-12-2017 08:31 AM Iowa State is now rated better than 3 MAC schools. Matt Campbell has done a heck of a job there.

Matt Campbell has done a heck of a job there. The culture has changed there. ISU will be good next season and probably a 6 win team this year. Book it. RE: 2017 Orlando Sentinel College Football Rankings - inductchuck16 - 05-12-2017 02:03 PM Temple just had back 2 back double digit win seasons...I'm pleased but surprised to see them ranked as a bottom dweller. I love seeing Cincinnati as a bottom dweller, as well as Matty Cash Campbell's Iowa State. RE: 2017 Orlando Sentinel College Football Rankings - Ohio Poly - 05-12-2017 06:41 PM MAC East is off to a great start RE: 2017 Orlando Sentinel College Football Rankings - emu steve - 05-12-2017 06:57 PM (05-12-2017 06:41 PM)Ohio Poly Wrote: MAC East is off to a great start Interesting, but I don't see a bad MAC West team this season.

And Ball State probably won't be top notch either. RE: 2017 Orlando Sentinel College Football Rankings - Blue N. Goldman Jr. - 05-12-2017 09:58 PM It sure would be great if we could add the 121st best team to the MAC.

We have a few returning starters on O-line including an all-MAC guy plus a RB who is better than the guy he was replacing. If Jordan Huff stays on the field he will likely be All-MAC at RB. QB is a question mark obviously, and WR is a question mark also, but we always find someone to step up. The secondary will be very experienced and good, if we can find a DE or two to provide pressure the D will be fairly good. Last year we beat EMU and Kent State with one of our backup QBs. I just have to hope that Ryan Graham isn't the best guy we got, or that Carey plays him despite not being the best guy we got.

If our starting QB can throw a forward pass, we probably win at least 6 games.
