Rivals.com has been counting up the FBS teams from No. 120 to No. 1.  OUr number (73) got called with this post: http://collegefootball.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1097453#73.  The conclusions drawn in the synopsis are:
  • Except for a trip to Ohio State, the schedule appears manageable for a Bobcats program that looks bowl-bound again.
  •  Still, the unsettled situation in the offensive backfield at quarterback and running back gives some pause.
Here's a quick look at the MAC:

  58 - Temple
  67 - Northern Illinois
  73 - Ohio
  82 - Bowling Green State
  87 - Western Michigan
  88 - Akron
  94 - Central Michigan
  96 - Kent State
  98 - Toledo
108 - Ball State
111 - Miami
115 - Buffalo
117 - Eastern Michigan
 
The "count-up" to No. 1 is complete with the introduction of Alabama at No. 1. Ohio State is No. 2. A notable graph in the writeup about the Buckeyes concerns their schedule:

If Ohio State wins fewer than 10 games, the season should be considered a failure. The Buckeyes have eight home games overall, including four in a row to open the season. Three of them are layups: Marshall, Ohio U. and Eastern Michigan.

Yep......the pause does make me hope for no RB injuries.......but it also makes me think we may have the 2 best QB's in the MAC.

Doc, I am drawing a blank, who do you have as the best QB?  I think Boo will have a great year!
