Most overrated team
UCF: I love Gus Malzahn, and I love what George O'Leary, Scott Frost and Josh Heupel did before him -- with the program. But the AAC has gotten deeper. UCF doesn't have the soldiers to keep up this season (get back to me when the Knights go to the Big 12), while Cincinnati and Houston are simply too good. -- Dennis Dodd (also Shehan Jeyarajah, Jerry Palm)Most underrated team
USF: There's this notion out there that the Bulls are due for another dreadful season after a 2-10 record under Jeff Scott last year. Don't fall into that trap. The Bulls return 19 starters, including five on the offensive line and their entire back seven on defense. Gerry Bohanon, who helped lead Baylor to the Big 12 title last year, transferred in to take over the quarterback duties. Is USF going to win the AAC? Probably not, but don't be surprised if it has a big say on who does. -- Salleecbs
