[b]http://www.hydroflaskaustralia.com/[/b] . 8 Iowa State on Saturday, sending the Cyclones to their third consecutive loss. The Longhorns (14-4, 3-2) got their biggest win of the season with their third in the row in the Big 12. (STATS) -- What Morehead State coach Rob Tenyer liked about his teams fourth-place prediction in the Pioneer Football League preseason poll is his players were probably disappointed by it.Never mind that its the highest prediction experienced by the players.Last season changed a lot for the Eagles as they posted their first winning season since 2007, going 7-4 and finishing third in the 11-team PFL.Morehead has to overcome the loss of 19 seniors in showing it can sustain success, but Tenyer has been impressed by the teams approach this offseason as it sets its sights on PFL title contention. Dayton, which represented the league in the 2015 FCS playoffs, and San Diego, the slight favorite in this years preseason poll, shared the title a year ago.Were in year four, Tenyer said. Our goal ultimately is to take the next step and I think we made some tremendous progress in our first three years.I think it all starts with your leadership. I was a little concerned heading into spring practice with just graduating 19 players. I thought our returning players, our veteran players, responded really well. I think were to the point now where we have some internal culture and our players police some things. I think weve gotten really good leadership.Even Morehead State legend Phil Simms has to be impressed by Eagles senior quarterback Austin Gahafer. The fourth-year starter, and the 2015 PFL offensive player of the year, is on pace to become the schools all-time leading passer.Following is a team-by-team breakdown of the 2016 Pioneer Football League race and STATS predicted order of finish:1.

Their PFL schedule is front-loaded with upper-tier opponents, including a visit to San Diego, and the road games will be challenging. The defense should shine as LBs Beaschler and Crain (105) both surpassed 100 tackles last season, while CBs Stubbs (seven) and Searles (five) combined on a dozen interceptions. The young offense has grown up fast after QB Jeske (194-for-327, 2,052 yards, 10 TDs, 10 INTs) and RB Yinger (731 yards, 3 TDs) played extensively as freshmen and WR Tumpane (48 receptions, 372 yards, 3 TDs) a sophomore last season. The kicking game is the best in the league as two-time All-PFL first-teamer Will was 17 of 23 on field goals and Smith averaged 41.7 yards on punts.SCHEDULE:Sept. 3, Central StateSept. 10, Robert MorrisSept. 17, at DuquesneSept. 24, at San Diego*Oct. 1, Drake*Oct. 8, Morehead State*Oct. 15, at Jacksonville*Oct. 22, at Butler*Oct. 29, Stetson*Nov. 5, Valparaiso*Nov. 12, at Marist** -- PFL game---=2.

The Toreros were a slight favorite over Dayton in the leagues preseason poll. One of the keys is having a healthy Lawrence, the PFLs 2015 offensive freshman of the year who suffered a broken leg in the seasons final game. All of his skills position standouts return: RB Hodges only played in four games because of injury and will rejoin the rotation with Armstrong (662 yards, 7 TDs), while the productive trio of TE Dwelley and WRs Riley and Priest are coming off a combined 135 receptions and 14 touchdowns. The top eight tacklers return to the defense, including pass-rushing DE Peterson (16 TFL, 8 sacks) and shutdown CB Agnew. However, the key losses include four starters on the offensive line and three on the defensive line.SCHEDULE:Sept. 3, Western New MexicoSept. 10, at Cal PolySept. 24, Dayton*Oct. 1, at Butler*Oct. 8, Davidson*Oct. 15, at Drake*Oct. 22, Valparaiso*Oct. 29, at Marist*Nov. 5, Universidad De Las Americas PueblaNov. 12, Stetson*Nov. 19, at Campbell** -- PFL game---=3.

Hes passed for 8,514 career yards -- the most among active FCS players. He will be tested, though, because Cornwall and Tanner Napier dont return after combining for 133 receptions and 16 TDs. That makes WR Raymond (72 receptions, 722 yards, 6 TDs) the go-to target. The running game gets a big boost with the return of RB Jones, who was injured in 2015 spring practices and missed the season. In Jones absence, Holman rushed for 407 yards as a freshman. The defense, now being coordinated by linebackers coach Zack Moore, made great progress last season by forcing 28 turnovers, but it still has to give up fewer big plays. LB Bennett and DT Briggs both made the PFL preseason team. The PFL schedule doesnt include San Diego, but Dayton and Drake are on the road.SCHEDULE:Sept. 3, at James MadisonSept. 10, VMISept. 17, Lincoln (Pa.)Sept. 24, at Drake*Oct. 1, Valparaiso*Oct. 8, at Dayton*Oct. 15, Marist*Oct. 22, Jacksonville*Nov. 5, at Butler*Nov. 12, Campbell*Nov. 19, at Davidson** -- PFL game---=4.

More than half the starters departed, including three-year starting QB Rice. Thibault hopes to emerge from preseason competition as the new signal-caller, who will try to jump-start an offense that was seventh in the PFL in scoring (23.1 ppg) and total yards (364.5 ypg). Drake cant afford to surrender 40 sacks again. Wilkins (887 yards, 9 TDs) is among the best running backs in the league and All-America TE Saubert and Gallery (44 receptions, 536 yards, 1 TD) are a strong receiving duo. The defense lost do-everything standout Hugunin, but DE Marrin will chase another PFL sacks title. With DT Clayberg taking on a bigger role, the defensive line will be solid. There are two sub-Division I opponents in the first three games, so the Bulldogs should work their way back to a winning season.SCHEDULE:Sept. 3, QuincySept. 10, at South Dakota StateSept. 17, McKendreeSept. 24, Morehead State*Oct. 1, at Dayton*Oct. 8, at Valparaiso*Oct. 15, San Diego*Oct. 29, Campbell*Nov. 5, at Jacksonville*Nov. 12, Butler*Nov. 19, at Stetson** -- PFL game---=5.

The Bulldogs have lost QB Shiltz, but Weaver saw a lot of action in 2014 and should fit in well as the new starter. He is excellent in running the read option. A healthier Schrader (knee) teamed with Scaccia at running back will give the offense a boost. Schrader was the teams offensive MVP two years ago, but only played in three games last season. Top OL Demos also is back to the lineup after missing last season with a back injury. The defense returns its eight leading tacklers from a year ago, led by LB Horan and also featuring DE Willis (seven sacks) on the pass rush. While the Bulldogs ranked fifth overall in the PFL in total defense (351.5 ypg), they were last against the pass.SCHEDULE:Sept. 3, at Indiana StateSept. 10, Franklin CollegeSept. 17, at Taylor UniversitySept. 24, at Campbell*Oct. 1, San Diego*Oct. 8, Marist*Oct. 15, at Davidson*Oct. 22, Dayton*Oct. 29, at Valparaiso*Nov. 5, Morehead State*Nov. 12, at Drake** -- PFL game---=6.

Jenkins, DB, Sr.; Ryan Giaratano, P, Sr.OUTLOOK: Shields, the head coach at Lenoir-Rhyne the last two seasons, has replaced Kerwin Bell, whose last two seasons were marred by Jacksonvilles ineligibility for the PFL title because of mistakes in awarding financial aid. Eligible again, the PFL power is not expected to challenge for the title because its roster has changed a lot, including the addition of 46 freshmen. The Dolphins were picked eighth in the PFLs preseason poll, which stands out after they went 9-2 each of the last two seasons. The offensive star is RB Bryant, who will get a lot of touches in the up-tempo option offense. QB Wells (55-for-90, 967 yards, 8 TDs, 1 INT) will be at the controls with Adjamah (409 yards, 2 TDs) another key running back. Former Army coach Rich Ellerson is the defensive coordinator, but his unit has only three returning starters, led by leading tackler Redding. His running mate at linebacker, Malik Slater, who was second in tackles, is not back on the roster. The Dolphins have to cut down on last years league-high 101 penalties.SCHEDULE:Sept. 10, at LibertySept. 17, Edward WatersSept. 24, at Stetson*Oct. 1, DuquesneOct. 8, Campbell*Oct. 15, Dayton*Oct. 22, at Morehead State*Oct. 29, at Davidson*Nov. 5, Drake*Nov. 12, at Valparaiso*Nov. 19, Marist** -- PFL game---=7.

(35 receptions, 826 yards, 6 TDs)ONE TO WATCH ON DEFENSE: Cameron Gibson, CB, Sr. (48 TT, 3 TFL, 2 INTs, 8 PBU, 1 BK)KEY PLAYERS: Mike White, QB, Jr.; Marcellus Calhoun, RB, Sr.; Lawrence Dickens, WR/KR, Jr.; Seamus Ryan, OT, Sr.; Ryan Schneider, OG/C, R-Sr.; Dan Njoku, NT, Sr.; Jimmy Braun, LB, Sr.; Ruben Avalos, LB, Sr.; Blaise Spinelli, LB, So.; Willie Barrett, LB, Jr.; Brandon Miller, CB, Sr.; Mike Marston, S, R-Sr.; Kwame Darko, S, Sr.; Jordyn Jean-Felix, S, Jr.; Mike Maccarone, PK, Sr.OUTLOOK: Parady is entering his 25th season at Marist and is one win shy of 125. The Red Foxes, in their eighth year in the PFL, have never been picked higher than sixth in the leagues preseason poll (it was sixth this year), but they often exceed expectations, bested by a share of the league title in 2013. They face a challenge this season following the loss of numerous fifth-year seniors. The offense will carry the team for a while with QB White (174-for-336, 2,564 yards, 14 TDs, 14 INTs) looking deep to Christian, whose 23.6 yards per reception as a freshman was No. 1 in the FCS. RB Calhoun (597 yards, 10 TDs) also knows how to find the end zone. The defensive line was decimated by graduation, so NT Njoku is asked to step into a leading role as a senior. LB Barrett returns after sitting out with an injury last year, while Gibson and Marston bring leadership to the secondary.SCHEDULE:Sept. 3, BucknellSept. 10, GeorgetownSept. 17, at Sacred HeartOct. 1, Campbell*Oct. 8, at Butler*Oct. 15, at Morehead State*Oct. 22, Davidson*Oct. 29, San Diego*Nov. 5, at Stetson*Nov. 12, Dayton*Nov. 19, at Jacksonville** -- PFL game---=8.

Jones, S, R-Sr.; Mitchell Brown, PK, Jr.; Carlos Merritt, S, R-Jr.; Dante Simmons, CB, R-Jr.; Jarrett Ozimek, P, R-Sr.OUTLOOK: Although Campbell has been growing as a program, the Camels lost too much talent after last season to be more than a mid-level PFL team this year. The losses are especially big on defense, with All-PFL talents Awuruonye and Milhouse and four-year starter Dwan Hanshaw gone from the defensive line and leading tackler Jake Barr gone from the secondary. At least the Camels defense has a young standout to build around in LB Ryan. On offense, the Camels will start a quarterback who has yet to take a snap in college, presumably Burress. Their attack will be centered around All-PFL first-team running back DeShawn Jones, who needs nine rushing yards to reach 2,000 in his career. Minter is seeking his first winning season with the Camels, who have six home games at popular Barker-Lane Stadium.SCHEDULE:Sept. 1, Bluefield CollegeSept. 10, at ChowanSept. 17, PresbyterianSept. 24, Butler*Oct. 1, at Marist*Oct. 8, at Jacksonville*Oct. 22, Stetson*Oct. 29, at Drake*Nov. 5, Davidson*Nov. 12, at Morehead State*Nov. 19, San Diego** -- PFL game---=9.

Of course, everybody is following Paynes lead. The All-America safety is a two-time PFL defensive player of the year and fills a box score unlike any defensive player in the FCS. DE Belk, who totaled 14.5 tackles for loss and seven sacks, joined Payne on the PFL preseason team. With Tentler leaving the program, QB McGovern (24-for-49, 269 yards, 4 INTs) is the new starter. He struggled last season, but will benefit from an improved offensive line. RB Mazza, who rushed for 922 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2014, missed about five games with turf toe. The Hatters have to cut down on turnovers and penalties, but they figure to be improved.SCHEDULE:Sept. 3, Sacred HeartSept. 10, WarnerSept. 24, Jacksonville*Oct. 1, at Davidson*Oct. 8, at BrownOct. 15, Valparaiso*Oct. 22, at Campbell*Oct. 29, at Dayton*Nov. 5, Marist*Nov. 12, at San Diego*Nov. 19, Drake** -- PFL game---=10.

(PFL preseason first team)ONE TO WATCH ON DEFENSE: J.J. Nunes, DB, Sr. (76 TT, 4.5 TFL, 1 sack, 1 INT, 5 PBU, 1 FR, 2 FF)OTHER KEY PLAYERS: Ryan Clarke, QB, Jr.; Dalton Stokes, QB, R-So.; Grayson Bastin, RB, Sr.; Jean Rene, WR, So.; Frank Catrine, WR/PR, Jr.; Jarrett Morgan, WR/KR, Jr.; Bailey Gessinger, WR, Fr.; Brian Lang, OL, R-Jr.; Connor Rettig, OL, R-Jr.; Jack Jarnigan, OL, R-Fr.; Tristan De La Rosa, DL, Jr.; James Reed, DL, Fr.; Kye Hall, LB, Jr.; Mike Wheeler, LB, So.; Kellan Hughes, DB, Jr.; Joey Diaz-Martinez, DB, So.; Idode Kerbo, DB, Sr.OUTLOOK: Valpos encouraging first season (4-8) under Cecchini was followed by the usual struggles, but Cecchinis recruiting classes are building. The offensive line was young last season and improvement will allow QB Clarke (95-for-182, 980 yards, 10 TDs, 9 INTs) to connect with WRs Catrine and Rene, who combined on 75 catches and eight touchdowns last season. Clarke, though, is coming off a dislocated kneecap. Morgan, terrific on kickoffs, has been considered for a move from wide receiver to running back to aid a struggling part of the Crusaders offense (73.7 rushing yards per game). Norberg, the PFL preseason fullback, is not a rusher, but more a blocker and pass catcher out of the backfield. The big loss on defense was Green, the Crusaders first All-PFL first-team selection since 2006. DB Nunes has put together two straight excellent campaigns and seeks a big senior finish. The road schedule is daunting, but the home portion of it offers a chance for some wins.SCHEDULE:Sept. 3, at Illinois StateSept. 10, at Sacred HeartSept. 17, Trinity International (Ill.)Sept. 24, Davidson*Oct. 1, at Morehead State*Oct. 8, Drake*Oct. 15, at Stetson*Oct. 22, at San Diego*Oct. 29, Butler*Nov. 5, at Dayton*Nov. 12, Jacksonville** -- PFL game---=11.

The struggles will continue this year, but the Wildcats hope to add some more wins. Their offense averaged only 12.5 points and that was with a standout wide receiver in Morris, who has graduated. New offensive coordinator Vinny Marino will rely on a quarterback, Mitchell, who started to come into his own last season.
