so as of RIGHT NOW, rank the SBC teams...
My Poll
1. Troy - beats Oklahoma State... no, sorry... crushes Oklahoma State
2. Florida Atlantic - beats Big Ten Minnesota and a conference foe
3. Arkansas State - beats out-of-conference SMU and plays Texas to an 8-point loss
4. Middle Tennessee - plays Louisville close... defense or none, that's impressive
5. North Texas - played SMU close... a new system, new coach... could win some SBC games
6. Louisiana-Monroe - mediocre, at best
7. Louisiana-Lafayette - loss to I-AA McNeese State is terrible
8. FIU - 15-game losing streak... now the nation's longest

After the top three, it is a very difficult task to correctly align the teams, and I think it's too this early in the season since must teams have yet to play a conference game.
The Top 3, not necessarily in order; Troy, ASU & FAU.
In the middle, no particular order; (4,5,6) MTSU, ULM & ULL
Bottom two, no particular order; (7,8) UNT & FIU
My take on the top three: Troy remains the favorite, their once dormant offense has found some life. ASU is showing that they can make a run at the Title. FAU will need to find some consistency on offense, to make a case for themselves for the top spot.
In The middle: Don't discount ULL just yet, they are a better team that lost to McNeesse a team that is always tough at the once AA level, they have a pretty good QB that can create a little havoc - could be a bad game, remember Valdosta a team we shouldn't have never lost to. ULM is just that, a team in the middle of the pack. MTSU we be a middle pack team, just because of injuries and will be hard for them to find consistency through-out the season, however a team you better not overlook.
Bottom two: North Texas might be able to bump ULM to the bottom two, too Early to tell. FIU will have another tough season, but I don't see them going winless, they will Knock the monkey off their back, the question will be - you will be the victim ('s) for the Golden Panthers. They will improve every week and a W is just a matter of time.
