Average these two together and that's probably more accurate. 14th-16th would be my guess. Thanks for posting Lance.

These are interesting to see though.

We do have a tough schedule with road games against Bama, Notre Dame, Nebraska and Ohio. Michigan Alum Class of 2008

Countess made a few freshman mistakes in the last two games last season, but his ability made up for it. Floyd is who I'll be watching most.

I think its very possible that this team will be much improved, but that improvement won't be reflected in the record because of the schedule.

Come on. Outside of that outrage the top 10 list looks accurate. University of Michigan '13. Maize and blue to the grave.
