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 James Madison Football Predictions: Dukes Ranked 50th in RJ Young's Ultimate 136
College Football 2025 James Madison Football Predictions: Dukes Ranked 50th in RJ Young's Ultimate 136 Published Aug. 10, 2025 9:34 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 James Madison lands in my Ultimate 136. James Madison ranking: 50 Last year's ranking: 39 Top player: RB Ayo Adeyi: Only played two games last season due to a season-ending injury, but totaled 1,824 rushing yards and 10 rush TDs from 2022 to 2023. [JMU's 2025 schedule] RJ's take: If Alonza Barnett retains the starting job, it's not hard to see the Dukes continuing to be offensively exceptional. Barrett threw for nearly 2,600 yards with 26 touchdowns and just four interceptions last season before suffering a leg injury against Marshall. Along with a healthy Adeyi, a 1,000-yard rusher at North Texas in 2023, head coach Bob Chesney has the tools to put up points in the Sun Belt. ADVERTISEMENT Chesney also tooled up with 13 defensive transfers, including five out of the FCS and former Notre Dame defensive Aiden Gobaira. If EDGE Xavier Holmes and linebacker JT Kouame-Yao can notch double-digit tackles for loss in the "Little SEC" like they did at Maine and D-II Shepherd, respectively, expect the Dukes' defense to be tough.

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.
