Ranking all 128 FBS teams by 2016 returning production: Louisville leads the country

There aren’t too many significant changes here, but LSU’s defensive injury issues have bumped the Tigers’ totals down just enough to bump Louisville (here’s a look at everybody the Cardinals bring back) to No. 1 in terms of returning production. Still, experience is a clear strength for Les Miles’ squad.

Meet the breakout star QB who could turn Louisville into a title contender

But then, in the Music City Bowl against Texas A&M, Jackson showed the makings of something special. He shredded the Aggies for 227 passing yards, 226 rushing yards and four combined touchdowns in a 27-21 Cardinals win.

Lamar Jackson is decent, and I’m sure he has improved since we last saw him, but I don’t see them as ACC title contenders.

Take every team more seriously than FSU took us in the Peach Bowl.

I hope Louisville wins the ACC and OU wins the B12, each having their sole loss of the season to UH. I don’t think that’s too much to ask.
