I think we all learned from that SJSU game that USF isn't going to play in any NY6 bowl. Memphis has the best shot in the AAC.
Houston vs. Boise would be sweet.

Meh...it is almost impossible to travel across the country and play perfectly. I wouldn't put much stock in the shaky start for USF.
RE: Sports Illustrated Early Bowl Picks - 8BitPirate - 08-29-2017 05:47 PM
I'd take that bowl line up all day long. All very winnable with some nice P6 and G4 teams.

Based off what? The fact that they traveled across the country with a new coach in their first game of the year that was not against an FCS team, and they scored 42 unanswered points?
Let's give it a couple games shall we Mr. hot take.

I already know they're a bunch of cheaters... I think it would be a good bowl $$$ matchup for Houston and the AAC.

RE: Sports Illustrated Early Bowl Picks - AusTxPony - 08-29-2017 07:27 PM
First game boys, and a nice schedule to get the kinks worked out. I haven't given up on the Bulls. See ya in the AAC Championship since we don't play before. Almost got by you last year with a Frosh QB and less experience.

Cmon man... Clemson only beat Troy by 6 the 1st or 2nd game last year. Let's see what happens when we start conference play.
Anyways stay safe man if you are over in Houston and prayers for your friend and family

They have a horrifically easy schedule, which is going to hurt them. Anything less than 13-0, and they will miss the NY6 bowl. I think Memphis could drop UCLA and possibly UCF, as long as they're close games, and still have a better chance than if USF drops 1.
