15) Deion Sanders - Colorado - Prime Time hit Boulder like a lightening bolt but will the Bolt still have any energy left in it as part of the Big 12 this year..??

16) Kenny Dillingham - ASU - Athlon says despite finishing last in their coaching poll, that Dilly will be someone to be reckoned with in the Big 12 since he can recruit...

So, after Dilly's second season at ASU, where will he rate next season in this poll..??

I think that he will go up several places especially if he beats enough of the coaches rated ahead of him in this poll...

I'm ready to take the over 4.5 wins this year and I think we have a pretty good chance to go bowling....

Go Dilly and Go Devils!!!
