The Clemson Tigers are coming off their fourth straight season of 10 or more victories, something they have only done once in their history. There might be some overall disappointment with their recent performance but in broad terms they have just not been as good as Florida State, but, they have finished in the Top 15 in the final polls each of the last three seasons.
One of the more disappointing teams in the last two seasons, the Atlanta Falcons begin their quest back toward respectability in an NFC South Division that is very much up for grabs.
The New Orleans Saints will try to improve on a disappointing 7-9 season and try to get back to the form that saw them a dominant NFL force just a few short years ago. The problem? The Saints inexplicably traded away their best offensive weapon Jimmy Graham, they traded Kenny Stills and they still have the hugely over-rated Rob Ryan running the defense.
Consistency would be more than enough for a lot of college football programs. Louisiana Tech has won 8 or more games 4 times since 2006 and are coming off a solid 9-5 season that saw them knock off Big 10 opponent Illinois in their Bowl Game.
Defending back-to-back NFC South champions Carolina Panthers will look to improve on a 7-8-1 season in which some serious positives emerged for this club – Cam Newton was had his issues but still proved his leadership potential.

After suffering a 4-8 year in an uprising conference, the Florida International Panthers will look to rebound and get themselves back into a postseason bowl.
For a while there, coach Todd Graham really had this program rolling. Tulsa had three 10-plus-win seasons in a span of four years as their prolific offense was able to put up points seemingly on anyone.
The Florida State Seminoles have it going right now — maybe, if they could just stay off the police blotter.
After winning a national title, they participated in the first-ever College Football Playoffs as well last season, losing to Oregon. Those two results were led by Jameis Winston, who is now slinging it in the NFL, so it was going to be a challenge to compete at the same level even if they weren’t making so many off-the field headlines.
Old Dominion is set to compete with the top-tier teams in Conference USA during the 2015-16 NCAA Football Season. While it won’t be easy, it has the offensive potential to keep up in track meets with the likes of Western Kentucky and Marshall.

Another season under Mike Leach saw even more transformation to what we’re used to seeing from the pirate.

The pass game is thriving in Pullman, and you wouldn’t want it any other way with Leach at the helm.
Chris Peterson’s second year in as head coach of the Washington Huskies is going to be an interesting one. Coming into a team loaded with talent on the defense and not so much on the offense, he had to navigate tricky waters. He had to win using former head coach Steve Sarkisian’s players while trying to make his own changes along the way.
The results weren’t pretty record-wise, but they did have three players named as All-Americans. Now that they are gone, Peterson’s players are slowly moving in.
