I think tied for fifth is about right, although a higher finish wouldn't surprise me either.

In a way, though, I wish we had been picked to finish 7th or 8th, just like last year. Not that this team needs to be motivated. But my gut tells me the thoughts of finishing near the bottom of the conference last season did indeed motivate our players to prove everyone wrong.

Getting picked to finish 5th will be plenty enough motivation to get their backs up.
