Who should be COTY for the first 8 weeks in each conference and FBS?

[iowajerms]

AAC - Ruffin McNeill (ECU) - Team playing the best in this conference
ACC - Jimbo Fisher (FSU) - Still undefeated w/ off-field issues and a couple tough foes
B12 - Mike Gundy (OSU) - Very tough conference to choose from, but I think Gundy has them exceeding expectations.
B1G - Urban Meyer (tOSU) - Some could argue they are playing as good as MSU and without Miller
CUSA - Doc Holliday (MARS) - 7-0, next closest is 5-3 (MTSU)
INDY - Brian Kelly (ND) - If Taysom Hill didn't get injured, maybe BYU's coach will be here, but ND is undefeated and BYU has lost 3
MAC - Rod Carey (NIU) - Lost very strong QB and looking like to be a down year, but they are playing strong
MWC - Jim McElwain (CSU) - Who would expect the Rams to be 6-1?
P12 - Todd Graham (ASU) - One of the Arizona coaches were going to get it, I went with the one who lost a key player
SEC - Hugh Freeze (MISS) - Who would have thought Ole Miss was going to be 7-0 at this point?
SUN BELT - Willie Fritz (GASO) - Best overall winning % and undefeated in conference

FBS COTY for the 1st 2 months - Hugh Freeze

Kill is a good call right now for the Big10

 

[HawkeyesRuleURFace]

No Ferentz? I thought he was the defacto COTY just because he's NFL ready.

 

[BucksFanInGA]

Yeah, I'd go with Kill for Minny... I mean they're ranked for god's sake...

ACC - one team, weak as fuck conference. Nobody deserves COY.

B1G - Kill fo sho

Big 12 - Gary Patterson

Pac 12 - Not sure

SEC - Freeze & Mullen

I almost put in Epsall as B1G. Minn's schedule hasn't been that difficult compared to tOSU and Maryland.

W 42-20 over Eastern Illinois (now 2-5)
W 35-24 over MTSU (now 5-3)
L 30-7 by TCU (now 5-1)
W 24-7 over SJSU (now 3-3)
W 30-14 over Michigan (now 3-4)
W 24-17 over Northwestern (now 3-4)
W 39-38 over Purdue (now 3-5)

Other than VT, Ohio State has dominated everybody. When Braxton went down, people thought the would take a huge step back.

Easy there Chubbs. From what I have seen with Clemson & Duke (to name a few) pretty sure they could handle a B12 team like Texas if that's what you are getting at.

Ohio State has the highest rated players of any team in the Big10 and a trained monkey can take them to 9 wins. Hell, an untrained monkey got them to a bowl game.
