RE: Are the Owls really this bad?
Quote:Game 1: At Arkansas (L)- Arkansas is still rebuilding, but will be able to take care of the Owls at home.
Game 2: Houston (L)- I think Rice could win this one, but I also think Houston is primed for a pretty big bounce back season.
Game 3: At Texas (L)- This will probably be a game to forget for the Owls and hopefully they can move on quickly.
Game 4: Texas Southern (W)- This should be a big win for Rice at home.
Game 5: Southern Miss (W)- Expect a close game here, but I will give the edge to the better defense in Rice.
Game 6: At UTSA (L)- If the Owls want to win the west division, they are going to need to take down the Roadrunners and I don’t think they will have enough to win.
Game 7: At UAB (L)- Rice gets some bad luck playing the top two teams in the division on the road in back to back games and that is tough to ask of a team.
Game 8: North Texas (W)- Another tossup game for the Owls, their defense will be able to slow down the Mean Green.
Game 9: At Charlotte (W)- Charlotte is going to be better this season, but I like the Owls on the road here.
Game 10: Western Kentucky (W)- I think this will be a low scoring game and in those games, I lean towards the better defense.
Game 11: At UTEP (W)- This should be one of the easier games on the schedule for the Owls and they will win comfortably.
Game 12: Louisiana Tech (W)- I think Rice is going to end the season on a hot streak and their offense should be clicking by this point.
Final Record: 7-5, 6-2 C-USA

Looks right to me. There's an outside shot at beating UH and UTSA. Arkansas, Texas, and UAB are losses.

With Arkansas taking Rice so lightly and their looking forward to Texas the following weekend, there is an outside chance that Rice could beat them also. Let Rice have another Al Conover moment!

Throw a chair to rally them. Projection is good enough for a bowl game.
