They seem much improved from over the course of their existence in Fbs and sunbelt. Hate to say it. I was actually expecting SMU to blow them out of the water., and considering it was national tv I was a bit worried for the SBC. Actually really proud of them. Shows no one can take them lightly. SMU looks solid, although the secondary had bombs thrown at them all day. Young secondary or first game jitters? Hopefully the secondary coach can make some quick fixes.

A state and Memphis - game I was waiting for all day. A state has some tanks up front. Solid offense, but from what I understand they are thin on defense. Good game for sure. Seems they fell off the 2nd half. The defense just lost steam. Memphis is Memphis, solid all-around. Reminds me a lot of App state.

SBC is 1-0 CUSA and 0-2 as of now vs AAC. We will see how the cookie crumbles this season with 4 conferences being out. Just hope all teams can stay safe and healthy.

As an ex-CUSA member I never really believed the recent hype of SBC > CUSA. After this week I’m starting to change my opinion of the SBC.

Feeling concerned about BYU...but the 96 Aloha Bowl win over Steve Mariucci and Cal just wrapping up on ESPNU.
In addition to personal memories, hearing playet names that are blasts from the past...catching glimpses of Coach Niumatalolo and Coach Jasper on the sidelines

I have a feeling Navy will roll them. Pretty much everyone has looked really sloppy. I expect Navy to be its normal, efficient self. Once BYU gets into a rhythm, they won't be able to catch up.

Just a hunch.
