Conference Overview
Houston looks to dethrone two-time defending champ Tulsa, and has the playmakers to do it. The East should be a tight race between USM and ECU, with the Golden Eagles making the trip to Dowdy-Ficklen to end the season. Rice will take a huge step back as they lost record setters Chase Clement and Jarett Dillard. Look for UAB to sneak up on some people with 11 offensive starters returning.
