Paul Myerberg's annual countdown has begun, which means summer is here! Football is only one season away! Can you feel it? Go Dawgs!
USA Today College Football Countdown
No. 125: Georgia State
Who is No. 124? This team lost its six games against eventual bowl teams in 2012 by a combined score of 278-75.
I know you were thinking it.
No. 124: UMass
Who is No. 123? This team's coach graduated from the same college as a one-term senator from Minnesota.
Ahhh, the Pre-Snap Countdown! You know that FB season cannot be that far away when it starts. :D
So predictions on where we appear? I am going to guess 73-87. Do not see us much higher than that due to all the losses on offense, changes, and general uncertainty right now.
I say we'll be high 50's to low 60's. I'll stick 58 as my guess. Myerberg seems to do more research than most, and while we certainly won't be as high as last year I don't think we'll fall completely off the radar.
NO MORE TRIPS TO MOSCOW!
No. 123: Idaho
Low point: Idaho lost to Texas State and UTSA. That's not good. While Louisiana Tech beat up on several teams, the Bulldogs rolled up 839 yards of total offense against the Vandals on Oct. 20. That loss was the last straw for Akey, and deservedly so.
Who is No. 122? The first game this team every played came against a school famous for producing (among other folks) a forward for the Indiana Pacers, a former All-Pro receiver for the St. Louis Rams and a former outfielder for the Royals, Reds, Red Sox and Mets.
Memphis
U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
No. 122: South Alabama
Who is No. 121? This team's new coach served as its offensive coordinator during the program's second-highest scoring season over the last decade.
Auburn? Oregon? :laugh:
I vote New Mexico State.

Who is No. 120? This team is housed in a city whose population expanded by more than 200% in the 1920s but has declined in each decade since the 1970s.

Here's our first opponent in the countdown.
No. 119: UTSA
Who is No. 118? The coach of tomorrow's team shares a birthday (not the same year) with a wide receiver who held the NFL record for career receptions until the 1995 season.
