This week continues our 2010 college football previews, beginning with a Sun Belt Conference overview. It should be a two-horse race in the Sun Belt this season, with Troy and Middle Tennessee State vying for top spot.
The Troy Trojans are once again in the driver's seat. They deserve it after winning four consecutive Sun Belt Championships. The team has suffered some key losses, though—namely quarterback Levi Brown, the school's all-time leading passer. His replacement, Jamie Hampton, has plenty of standouts at both receiver and running back to count on.
Troy's biggest challenge will come in the form of Middle Tennessee State. The Blue Raiders nipped at Troy's heels last season but lost the head-to-head matchup. Star quarterback Dwight Dasher returns after racking up 36 total touchdowns last season. He'll be passing and running behind an offensive line that features four starters from last year.

Grandmaster Sports Handicapper Joe Duffy's expert take: Middle Tennessee and Troy will battle for the title, with MTSU coming out on top. One thing is certain, Western Kentucky is one of the worst teams in Division I. Florida Atlantic is the biggest question mark. They could finish as high as third, but may also be a bottom feeder.
