Preseason ranked #43 ???

As I said in an earlier post The Vegas odd's makers have the Bruins at 51/2 games for the over/under.   Everyone who follows college football knows that we have problems at O line and QB.  Yes our Defense will have to carry the load most of the season but that's asking a lot vs. good  teams like Tennessee, BYU, Fresno st., sc, ASU and Oregon.  

Can this years team make it to 6 wins?  I think so but most of the experts don't.  Our coaching staff is much improved but we are still a year away from seeing pre season top 25 rankings.  Pre season rankings are are meaningles, being ranked 28th or 43rd only means that this team has a lot to prove to those who cover the game.  The team has to change opinion by winning games.

Eh... Last year we were "picked" to finish 2nd in the Pac10 and to play in a BCS bowl. We ended up 6-6 and lost a crappy bowl game.

In other words: Preseason rankings are USELESS. For all we know we could end up 11-1 and head to the Rose Bowl. Let's wait and see. One game at a time.

You never know what a team can do. The critics have written off the Bruins for this year. That's ok, our defense will be ready to go. Our offense might surprise a few too.

Go Bruins!
