Glad someone is optimistic.

First 3 conference games for ODU are on the road. And 5 of first 7 on the road. But a 3-0 start is possible.

I want to apologize in advance to any of you hoping ODU would lift the CUSA profile. We aren't what we used to be, but hopefully will be competitive in another 2 years.

He's being sarcastic.

I think he's making fun of me for saying that we'd beat UTEP by 15 last week.

That or he just wants to see Tulsa lose big since they just beat USM.

I'm sure everyone in CUSA wants to see Tulsa, ECU, and Tulane lose in everything this year.

I really like our chances to go 0-2 this week

No, that would suck for the conference.

No, lol, but it has everything to do with Tulsa being young and playing on the road. "you're so vain...I bet you think this song is about you...about you..."

No it would be great for the conference if we all went 0-8 in football and 0-16 in CUSA in basketball or whatever non head to heads we play because whatever we do essentially moves on with us just like it did for Louisville. They even let them use the previous few CUSA seasons in any BCS rankings for the Big East when they left.

Charlotte gives 2.5 points tonight, but the lines have been wrong about us almost every game this year.

Full slate of conference games tonight. Predictions!

Charlotte over Tulsa in a close one
East Carolina over FAU
FIU over Old Dominion (going with the home team)
Marshall over North Texas (someone has to win)
MTSU over UTEP
UAB over UTSA
Southern Miss over Rice
La Tech over Tulane (would put the Bulldogs alone at the top with a 3-0 record)

I'm gonna disagree with both of you on FIU over ODU. Neither team is good, but I think ODU is less bad.

I do agree with nastybunch about FAU over ECU though. FAU is better than their record indicates. It could go either way, but I think FAU pulls out the W.

I don't think the fact that Tulsa is young can be used as much anymore. Our starting 5 has logged a lot of play time in the last year and a half as have 4 out of 5 of our rotation. We're really only rotating in one freshman. Everyone else is a super experienced sophomore or above.

ODU beats FIU 52-36.

We're starting to enjoy this conference!
