2025 Texas State Football Predictions: Bobcats Ranked 85th in RJ Young's Ultimate 136
College Football 2025 Texas State Football Predictions: Bobcats Ranked 85th in RJ Young's Ultimate 136 Published Aug. 10, 2025 9:44 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link This isn't your average college football ranking. My Ultimate 136 is a set of rankings that is fluid, but it's my job to look ahead and make a claim for all FBS teams based on what I know and why I know it. Here are the three pressing questions I started by asking when putting together this list: Who do I think is good? Why do I think they're good? What are the chances they will finish above or below my expectations? Here is a look at where Texas State lands in my Ultimate 136. Texas State ranking: 85 Last year's ranking: 55 Top player: OL Tellek Lockette: Started 17 games in two seasons at ULM and 13 games for Texas State last season; in 2023, had the fourth-highest pass block grade among all Sun Belt guards. [Texas State's 2025 schedule] RJ's take: Fresh off of a decision to leave the Sun Belt and join the Pac-12, GJ Kinne's Bobcats are looking to improve on their back-to-back eight-win seasons. They'll have three men to choose from at quarterback in Nate Yarnell (Pitt), Keldric Luster (SMU) and former four-star signal-caller Holden Geriner (Auburn). ADVERTISEMENT Though Kinne is likely to call plays as the new offensive coordinator, it wouldn't surprise me to see five-year assistant Landon Keopple get a shot at doing that with so many new pieces around after losing last year's starter at QB, three of their best receivers and three starters on the offensive line. Defensive coordinator Dexter McCoil will hope to get a double-digit sack season out of EDGE Kalil Alexander while breaking in 19 transfers on defense.

2025 Troy Football Predictions: Trojans Ranked 89th in RJ Young's Ultimate 136
College Football 2025 Troy Football Predictions: Trojans Ranked 89th in RJ Young's Ultimate 136 Published Aug. 10, 2025 9:45 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link This isn't your average college football ranking. My Ultimate 136 is a set of rankings that is fluid, but it's my job to look ahead and make a claim for all FBS teams based on what I know and why I know it. Here are the three pressing questions I started by asking when putting together this list: Who do I think is good? Why do I think they're good? What are the chances they will finish above or below my expectations? Here is a look at where Troy lands in my Ultimate 136. Troy ranking: 89 Last year's ranking: 50 Top player: S Devin Lafayette: In five collegiate seasons, has totaled 175 total tackles, 4 forced fumbles and 2 interceptions; had 10 QB pressures as a hybrid safety/linebacker for Troy last season. [Troy's 2025 schedule] RJ's take: Quarterback Goose Crowder has at least one wideout I trust to make plays in former Georgia receiver Rara Thomas. Given a chance, there's a quality duo out there for Gerald Parker's Trojans. But after winning back-to-back Sun Belt titles in 2022 and 2023, Troy might be entering a lull after a portal raid that has left Parker with a bunch of talented but unproven transfers of his own. ADVERTISEMENT Here's hoping a tandem of former SEC safeties in Steven Sannieniola (Vanderbilt) and David Daniel-Sisavanh (Georgia) can help keep a lid on the end zone.

49ers announced slew of roster moves ahead of Thursday's training camp practice
The San Francisco 49ers are resuming their training camp on Thursday at their SAP Performance Facility in Santa Clara, California, following a day off on Wednesday. However, before the practice began, the team announced nine roster moves. San Francisco signed running back Ameer Abdullah, quarterback Carter Bradley, wide receiver Marquez Callaway and wide receiver Andy Isabella. Abdullah, 32, earned All-Big Ten honors thrice at Nebraska before the Detroit Lions took him in the second round of the 2015 NFL draft. In his 10 seasons split between Detroit, Minnesota, Carolina and Las Vegas, he's rushed for 1,994 yards and eight touchdowns on 4.0 yards per carry while adding an addition 1,468 yards and 11 scores on 203 receptions. Bradley, 25, spent his collegiate career between Toledo (2018-21) and South Alabama (2022-23), earning All-Sun Belt honors in 2022. He signed with the Las Vegas Raiders as an undrafted free agent last year and spent most of his rookie season on their practice squad. Callaway, 27, was an All-SEC receiver at Tennessee before signing with the New Orleans Saints as an undrafted free agent in 2020. In five seasons, he's caught 83 passes for 1,069 yards and seven touchdowns, but he hasn't recorded a reception since 2022. Isabella, 28, was a star at UMass, earning All-American honors his final season. The Arizona Cardinals took him in the second round of the 2019 NFL draft, and between his time with the Cardinals, Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills and Pittsburgh Steelers, he's caught 33 passes for 447 yards and three touchdowns. To make room for these four, San Francisco released Equanimeous St. Brown and waived offensive lineman Sebastian Gutierrez, wide receiver Malik Knowles and safety Jaylen Mahoney. St. Brown, 28, signed with the 49ers just last week after spending his first seven seasons in the NFL with the Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bears and New Orleans Saints. He was fighting for a depth spot. Gutierrez, 27, spent time with the 49ers in 2023 and 2024 but only played three offensive snaps for the team in his two separate stints. He was also fighting for a depth or practice squad spot. Knowles, 24, earned All-Big 12 honors twice at Kansas State before signing with the Minnesota Vikings as an undrafted free agent. He signed with 49ers in June. Mahoney, 24, signed with San Francisco last year as an undrafted free agent out of Vanderbilt. He appeared in three games, playing 30 snaps (all on special teams) and recording three tackles. San Francisco also activated offensive lineman Ben Bartch from the non-football injury list. He's expected to contend for a starting spot on the offensive line now that he's back at camp. More 49ers: Free agent signing has thoroughly impressed OC Klay Kubiak early in training camp
