Bulletin Board Material: PFF Preseason All-Sun Belt Football Team

[Cajunrunner]

App State sure has a ton of players on that list, especially on offense.

Seems all the national outlets have us and Coastal in the running with Cincy for being the Top G5 team this season, but App State's schedule is manageable for them to be 12-0 if they can get some good QB play. They appear to have legit good players at the other positions.

SBC is ripe for at least 2 top 25 teams again this year. I personally think it’s App St and the Cajuns. Also think Kansas beats Coastal to start the year off. I see coastal losing at least 4 games. Could lose 5-6.

Did Coastal lose a lot of starters or something? They'll still have that really good young QB.

They have lost some starters, but they have also picked up 6 or 7 FBS transfers. As long as McCall is playing QB, they will be a good team. They are favored in that division for a reason. For those that haven't picked up this year's Phil Steele magazine, buy it and you might want to do a little homework.

I don’t think the drop off will be that significant but I think their only conference loss could be to App. It really depends on the qb play for App. Coastal’s offense will stay rolling.

I will be taking the under in pretty much every Coastal play this season. Especially W/L o/u.

They have lost a little, most notably they lost their #1 RB CJ Marable, who was a really good player and he will be hard to replace. They do lose their #2 QB, who had been a starter the year before, so if they lose McCall to injury the backup with be Bryce Carpenter, who has started and played a good bit previously, but neither was close to as good as McCall. Receiving wise they lose only 1 of 4 WR's, which is Sam Denmark, but Marable was their 2nd leading receiver as well as their top RB, so he is a huge loss. They return 9 on offense and 10 on defense. This team will be very good again, specifically if someone replaces Marable. Right now the top candidate is Reese White and Shemari Jones, they both were good last year as White rushed for 485 yards and Jones rushed for 401, they combined for 9 TD's. They are really young at RB behind those two. But Jones and White should be capable of picking up most of the slack from the loss of Marable. They also return a pretty good punter and FG kicker from last years team.

The schedule is set up very nice for them as they play The Citadel, Kansas, Buffalo and U Mass out of conference and only Buffalo is on the road.

Kansas and Buffalo both OOC losses.

Kansas and Buffalo both OOC losses.

Let's see what Vegas says before those games. But I might take some of that action if you are picking Kansas in that game and probably Buffalo as well.

They are set up well for another run. They play everyone in conference except UL. We have the 90 ranked schedule in the FBS, our opponents were 62-61 last year.
