ASU not meeting Anderson's hype

JONESBORO -- Blake Anderson wasn't shy this summer about touting what was possible.

Anderson's boasts of the Arkansas State football team were always accompanied by the word potential, though. As in, the ceiling was high if an offense featuring two new quarterbacks, two new receivers, a new coordinator and the absence of last year's leading rusher could jell in a reasonable amount of time.

Anderson didn't hold back. He went as far as to say the Red Wolves, coming off a Sun Belt title year, could contend for a spot in the Cotton Bowl, which goes to the highest-ranked team from the Group of Five conferences.
