10. Arkansas
Ten wins and an Allstate Sugar Bowl appearance in 2010 have Razorbacks fans believing. Losing record-setting QB Ryan Mallett doesn't seem to faze the faithful. In comes a more mobile Tyler Wilson, who impressed in last season's shootout at Auburn, with an outstanding running game featuring Knile Davis to take the heat off him. Add one of the deepest receiving corps in the nation and points won't be an issue. There's talent up front, but the Razorbacks must replace three starters at the line of scrimmage. Defensively, Jake Bequette will spearhead the sack attack, Jerry Franklin returns as the leading tackler and Tramain Thomas heads up the secondary. The Hogs must stop the run and improve red zone defense to return to a BCS bowl. -- Mike Bellotti, ESPN TV analyst
