Working feverishly to satiate my cravings for Marshall football news I found this on Athlon's Website: "Ranking College Football's Rosters for 2014"...as I looked for Marshall's inclusion in said rankings I noted that it only went to #78 (Tulane) (one behind Memphis, shockingly--the final eight were all from the AAC)...turns out that only the "real conferences" were listed...never mind that #44 (tie) Maryland was defeated by a team with clearly superior talent, despite ESPN's massive efforts to portray the Terps as the definition of walking wounded...not that this is headline news or anything, but it just points out how the elite can start off the poll season in the Top 10 while the Little Sisters of the Poor have to hope that they can build upon a handful of AP voters to push them into the Top 25--if they're lucky...I like Athlon's College Preview (it usually arrives this weekend), but I'd like to punch the guy who wrote the article in the mouth...
