The Sun Belt has been the worst conference for much of it’s life. However we believe this year (and last year mostly) they will take a big step forward. They have a few legit teams and are pretty top heavy. The bottom is still…well…bottom feeders, but the top makes up for that and they have some pretty marquee match-ups.

For each Conference we will have the Simplified Football predictions (record) with the Projected Win-Shares and rating of each team next to it. We will also have Bowl Projections for each conference.<\/p>\n
