Is that official? I think Bo has done a good job for a true freshman with a terrible Oline.

Last I heard, Holman was upgraded to "Questionable" for the Tulane game.

It'll be a shootout for sure.

ECU has shown how bad they are against mobile QB's already. SMU has shown they have no defense to speak of. Last person to score wins.

Memphis @ USF ESPN2

Temple @ Charlotte CBSSN
MY LINE: Temple 31-17 Giving Charlotte a few points at home but I think Temple can really lay the wood the FBS newcomer.


UConn @ #_ BYU ESPN2

AF @ Navy CBSSN
MY LINE: Navy 31-21 I don't see AF being able to overcome Navy at home.

ECU @ SMU ESPNews
MY LINE: ECU 38-35 While I think ECU could hit the 40s in points...we haven't yet shown that ability between our two qb's to do it. SMU has been pretty prolific on offense so I am making this a close game down to the finish....I do have more faith ECU's D than SMU's.

Pourin' out some for all my dead homies.

Any USF fans around? Your thoughts on your team's strengths/weaknesses?
