Watching Wyoming vs. Utah State on ESPN2 and they just projected Marshall as the Access Bowl Rep against the Fighting Irish for the Peach Bowl. Know it's way premature but wouldn't that be a big Boost for CUSA? Only thing better would be for the CUSA CHAMP to actually beat ND!
Marshall is good but we really don't know what they would look like against a Power team.
We know what the reigning CUSA champs looked like against Notre Dame. Hopefully on a neutral field with a bowl on the line we could give them some payback. Be nice to find out, either way.
I think we match up excellent with notre dame. I think we win by 2 tds. I would rather have them as any other top 10 team outside of maybe arizona state (thiugh they arent a marquee opponent really, they have been really lucky to be where they are and will lose a couple games soon).

Oh geez. Over ND by 14? Not very likely. Watch the ND-ASU game and the Marshall game and come back...
Just telling you what i think. Hopefully we get a chance to make it happen.
ASU is not that good at all. Notre Dame wins that one by a good Margin. Maybe 17+. ASU is lucky, eventually that runs out. But don't give ND too much credit for that win either.

Out of the possible p5 match ups though.. ND is one of the ones I like the best.. I've watched them a few times this year and feel like we could match up with them fairly well

My goodness, 2 tds better than ND. And you gathered all that knowledge by watching us play our pathetic schedule?? Who's your dealer, I need some of what your smoking?
just too bad Tech has to beat Marshall in the Championship Game
Go Marshall. It would be great for the conference.
Hope it happens, but La Tech represents a pretty high hurdle. Get past them first, then let's talk about ND.
Sucks a conference mate has the potential now to be a spoiler for Marshall.

He sounds like an ass, but he is usually right (except on the Johnson/Butler controversy).
