Acclaimed football writer Phil Steele, creator of Phil Steele's College Football Preview, stopped by to chat with Joe Londergan and Eric Henry about the storylines he's watching for in Conference USA this season. Namely, Steele has higher expectations than most for UTEP this season. Can Dana Dimel's squad live up to the hype that last season created?

Steele also gave his thoughts on Charlotte's upcoming "do or die" season and who the 49ers' key pieces will be. Happy football watching!
