I have decided my surprise teams for each P5 conference this year:
ACC - Pitt: favorable schedule, upgraded QB
SEC - Missouri: Defense will be great, lost ton of close games. Could be 5-0 when LSU visits.
Big 10 - Iowa: With an actual QB now, can go 10-2.
Big 12: Texas Tech: Good coach. They could beat Oregon week 2.
PAC 12: Oregon State: they shouldn’t be a surprise but nobody actually knows they’re good.
High up above, the St. Louis Battlehawks soar. They see everything from overhead as they wait for the right moment to sink their talons into the helpless down below.
