well i saw them last year in the 2nd round of the playoffs, and they have a lot of transfers and returners. plus i've seen the film from last week. why not?
Last year isn't a factor in this year's rankings. Who above them could they beat? We'll see this week when they play Metamora.

crimeny-what crawled up your arse? you asked i answered. i said i saw them play last year in the playoffs and a lot of those kids were returning. i saw them on film from wk1. my opinion just like the polls are an opinion. i also have a little experience with coaching.
