Around SBN: NFL Roundtable: Which Draft Pick Is Most Likely To Bust?

Cards picked next-to-last in Big East

For the second straight season the Louisville football team has been picked to finish seventh in the Big East by the media in its preseason poll. Quite a rapid and dramatic fall from grace for a program which was tabbed as the preseason favorite or runner-up in each of its first three seasons in the conference.

Here's the complete poll:

Rank Team Points
1. Pittsburgh (8) 161
2. West Virginia (5) 151
3. Cincinnati (8) 144
4. USF (3) 130
5. Rutgers 126
6. Connecticut 74
7. Louisville 51
8. Syracuse 27

 

Yeah I'm just going to go ahead and say it: I don't care how bad this league is, Pitt will not win it.

For more on this, I'd like to point you in the direction of the latest meeting of The Octonion.

Big East FB may leave more to be desired...

But nothing I contribute to the blogosphere will ever top The Octonion. Great stuff.

3rd and [Scott] Long

I’m really surprised Rutgers got zero 1st place votes; some people in the biz have picked them to win it all. 1-8 in this league are officially wide smokin’ open.

Nope

1-6 are wide open, barring an epic level collapse.
7 and 8 are us and you guys, unless Doug Marrone is the second coming of Urban Meyer, or Krags had a secret three-year plan.

UolF and the Pitts

I agree with you on Pitt. Dave W. can recruit but can’t coach. Of course based on what I have seen so far SK can’t do either. So change my subject to “UofL is the pits.” Thank you very much.

Syracuse?

Uhm… I recall Syracuse beating us and THEN firing their coach. I see U of L as 8 in an 8 team league.

My single word response to Louisville football…

“sigh”
