Hogs #20
When Bret Bielema took over the Badgers in 2006, he preached defense and running the ball in leading Wisconsin to top 25 AP finishes five of six seasons. Since taking over at Arkansas, the Razorbacks have improved their rushing attack by 99 yards per game and 1.2 yards per carry, while the defense has improved by 11.2 points per game and 87 yards per game. Arkansas returned only 10 and 14 starters his first two seasons, but 15 are back for 2015. At home last season, the defense held four of its six FBS foes to a season low on offense, including LSU and Alabama, while the other two teams had their third-lowest offensive performance of the season. The Hogs' 31-7 bowl win over Texas showed what they are capable of, as they held the Longhorns to a mere 59 yards of offense.
The rest:
Ohio St, TCU, Bama, Baylor, Oregon, Sparty, USC, Criminoles, Gus Bus, GA, UCLA, Ole Miss, ND, LSU, Clemson, AZ St, GT, Wisco, Mizz, Ark, Miss St, OU, Boise, Tenn, Stanford.
He notes TAM "just missed the cut".
