I wonder how great Slaton and White would be if they actually played anyone worth a damn every week. One game against Georgia means very little when you play against supbar competition all the other weeks.

And you, my friend, have a valid point there.

Welcome to the USSA!
And one other thing...looks like WVU is likely to be highly ranked in the preseason polls!! And a favorable schedule to boot.

Doesn't matter about the favorable schedule for them...I think them, Rutgers, and Louisville will all get in each others' way. All 3 of them go 1-1 against the other two, and then it will come down to tiebreakers to decide the Big East champ. Just a small prediciton on my part.
For the record, Rivals put WVU at #2 in their preseason rankings.

I'd say that's a good prediction on WVU, UL, and Ruts. Have to admit those were some entertaining games last year.

I think Louisville may be the team to go undefeated there. They have a better coach now. Their offense will be the same with Brohm but they will be much more disciplined and have a better D. Thats my take at least.

I also just saw that Louisville has 21 starters back. Didn't realize that. They may just go undefeated this season, or at least in the Big East. But I don't see anyone on their non Conf. schedule who should beat them
