IMO we are going to get killed by USF and SMU. That will be six loses.

If we improve we have a chance in our last four. Tulane, Temple, ECU and UConn.

I do not know what happened to the defense we saw at Michigan.

Just sayin... Tulane scored 62...62...on Tulsa this afternoon.

ECU and UConn...OK, we have a chance.
Temple...they are in free-fall, so maybe.

I think that Tulane game looks really, really dubious at this point. Oh, and they run an option offense...just like the one we could not stop at Navy.

Yeah, as we stand today, no way we beat Tulane.

Really the Tulane game is in Yulman. Tulane runs the option. Tulane put 62 on Tulsa.

Three strikes and we lose.

Temple is not good but it will be a Friday Night and no one will be there. We lose.

ECU is bad but it is on the road. We lose.

UC v UConn will be an Epoch Battle too avoid being winless in the AAC6. Will it count as a win if no one is at the game? UC losses as a student volunteer take over as the FG kicker and misses an 18 yarder for the win.

Don't see any other winnable game but UConn.
How very far and fast we have fallen.

Going to get killed by USF, SMU and Tulane.

Temple, ECU and UCONN will be coin flips.

We will finish no better than 4-8.

Tulane: doubtful

Temple: toss up

ECU/UCONN: we probably should win....but who knows

@Tulane
Temple
@ECU
UConn

we're gonna get one we didn't expect, probably with Trail or Sopko at QB1. my bet would be SMU

I fully agree. Our last four games are winnable because some entity, either UC or an opponent, is going to win each of those contests. The devil, however, is in the details.

We are going to have to outscore them. Their QB will feast on Grant Coleman and Carter Jacobs all day long and put up Tecmo Bowl numbers like the last couple of QBs. Only way we beat them will be if we score on every drive and we somehow stop them once

You think this is bad? Wait until next year when we get the guys who couldn't beat these stiffs out

No way that whomever is behind Carter Jacobs and Grant Coleman are any worse. They are starting because they've been around since Raymond Walters was president. :)

Statracker has Temple as a toss-up and ECU as a majority favorite win for us. The other two (Tulane and SMU) are heavy favor against UC..."winnable" is different for everyone, but I really don't think Tulane is at all winnable given our performance against Navy. Hell, we'd have a better shot vs. SMU than Tulane IMO.

SMU and Tulane are inconsistent so there is always a chance UC catches them on an off day. Beating SMU during homecoming would do wonders for this team in terms confidence in the back four.

No there not.......

That's what I keep saying. Although maybe it's just wishful thinking. I don't think we even got UCF into 3rd down situation more than a few times. I can't decide if it's really talent or just guys that have no idea where they are supposed to be on any given play. But there's a whole lot of experience in those guys playing in the secondary which is frightening.

Football teams ought to be run on the principle of "The Best Possible Guy Plays."

If the guys who are sitting on the bench behind Jacobs an Coleman aren't "worse" than those two then I completely give up on this coaching staff and team. We suffered through this last season watching Gunner Kiel riding the pine because apparently he had pissed off the HC.

If the Coaching Staff is sitting on talent simply because Jacobs an Coleman have "been here longer" then I am done with this program.

Doaks and Warren are taking snaps from Boone so I guess that's evidence that the staff is ok playing new guys at the expense of senior's snaps. Which then leads to the scary thought that those guys on the bench are even worse than what we have out there now.

Boone has not been healthy enough to play all the snaps.
