Not shocking and honestly a bit generous to have us ahead of MSU in the West. We were awful last year and until we prove otherwise, we are the bottom feeders right now.
The part that DID shock me was that they had Missouri ahead of Vandy in the east. Vandy looked solid and Missouri was bad last year and Vandy has more momentum.
Short term outlook from a 3-9 season. In the preseason of 2012, no one predicted 3-9 as a possibility. The eventual outcome of 2013 hopefully will be suprisingly good but perception will only change by what happens on the field...as it should be.
