Picking NT to finish fourth next year.

4. North Texas

2010 CFN Final Ranking: 99

2010 Record: 3-9

2010 CFN Preseason Rank: 102

CFN 2010 Preseason Prediction: 3-9

2009 Final Ranking: 110

2008 Final Ranking: 116

UNT might have the best coach in the league in former Iowa State head man Dan McCarney, and there's a chance for a night-and-day improvement if everyone can stay healthy. The Mean Green lost 12 starters to injuries in 2010, and seven of them come back to an already veteran squad. America, get ready to know the name Lance Dunbar; he could lead the nation in rushing with McCarney sure to feed him the ball.

"North Texas showed a whole bunch of spunk over the last month of the season, even if there were only two wins in the final five games. Lance Dunbar proved against Kansas State that he’s among the best players in America averaging 12.3 yards per carry and dominating throughout, and while the offense struggled in the second half, the team was right there until the end despite holding on to the ball for just 23:41. Riley Dodge continued his miraculous comeback, and while he only threw for 123 yards, he completed 8-of-12 passes before getting banged up. The defense might have been awful, but Craig Robertson made 16 tackles."

If he does it again this year...is there anyway that he doesn't get picked up and go Pro?

He is already projected to go in the first five rounds of the draft. The only way he doesn't get drafted is if he gets injured. I think he will have a great year and be a 2nd round draft pick!

If Middle Tenn hold grounds against Minn at the beginning of the season then I might give credit to this pre season ranking. I am not sure why they have Ark St with a better winning percentage than other teams based on the their schedule, but I don't get paid to guess.
