Even if I thought SMU would win, I don't know if I could vote for them based on sheer principle.

Based on what we saw out of Todd Graham in a very short time at Rice, I've gotta give the nod to Tulsa, but I think this years C-USA West race is very much wide-open. UH will be breaking in a new QB, Rice a new coach. UTEP could surprise a few people but is also replacing a QB, and SMU has as good a chance as ever (though their D-Line is suspect), depending on how it all plays out. My best guess:

Tulsa

UTEP

UH

SMU

Rice

Tulane

Again, you could probably put UTEP, UH, and SMU in any order you want as I'm guessing their conference records will only be separated by a game or so- or who beats who head to head.

[LongJim]

My best guess:

Tulsa

UTEP

UH

SMU

Rice

Tulane

I will play:

Tulsa

UH

SMU

UTEP

Rice

Tulane

I think 2-4 is a real crap shoot, as well.

Where is the "who cares?" selection?

Where is the "who cares?" selection?

I care. One of his better polls, imo

UTEP will surprise people, but won't win it all unless Vittatoe puts everything together (assuming he's our starter).

[GreenBat]

Where is the "who cares?" selection?

I second this. Greenminer, the only reason you care because of where you live. The Miners are the only game in town.

[UNTLifer]

Where is the "who cares?" selection?

Agreed.

My $.02

I think that Houston, despite losing Kolb, repeats.

I think that Tulsa finishes second.

Third will be an improved UTEP.

Probably SMU finishes fourth, although I think that this will be Bennett's last year

Bob Toledo will get Tulane out of the cellar

Demoralized Rice, after losing several good players and their coach, finishes last.
