W-17 BP68

Yes, we are indeed only 17 weeks from Selection Sunday. We're still less than one full week into the regular season, but we've already learned a lot. Some players already displayed great athletic improvement since last season, and we've already gotten a good look at some of the most hyped freshmen.

At this time of the year the BP68 will come out once a week, as it has in years past (obviously it was the "BP65" in past years, but everything else is the same). And remember again that this is a projection of where I think things will end up, and not of where they stand now:
