Funny you mention that, I might be drinking one those right now?

ESPN app incapable of moving the clock between possessions.

I guess Bloomgren has given up. He has 2 TOs, but letting UTEP run the clock.
Now he finally uses one with 2:46 left.

Then block their pat and return it, which would then make it a two score game.
I heard that if we run back enough extra point attempts, we win!

It seemed to kind of work for ODU last week, they got one of everything I believe
(Except the as-yet-to-ever-be-scored-but-probably-legal 1 point defensive PAT)

I like ESPN+. The Owls still have 2 TOs on that app.

Not sure who has worse hands - UTEP DBs or Rice receivers.
RE: Rice vs. UTEP - westsidewolf1989 - 11-20-2021 07:42 PM
In three games against UTEP, Bloomgren has lost twice. In 11 games against UTEP, Bailiff lost...twice. Get Bloomgren out of here now.

I bet the nfl punter with an Aussie rules background could pull it off.
He’s already got the first legal double punt on record…

Glad to report the good news that
(While tonight’s loss was disappointing and should have played better, blah,blah)
We have to look at the cold hard metrics.
Median conferrence loss drops from 14 points to an almost respectable 10 points!!!
We need a one-score loss in the final game to get the median loss down to one-score land!!!
24-30 anyone? One more time OptOwl??
Rice vs. UTEP - owl at the moon - 11-20-2021 07:57 PM
Sorry just kidding about wanting to lose next week.
But if we beat LaTech (and UNT finishes off FIU tonight, then all of our losses will have been to bowl-eligible teams!!!*
(*after UNT upsets top 15 UTSA)

Wow, looking HARD to find some good news.
Bottom line: Rice is a BAD football team. it doesn't have to be. With a different offensive scheme, it might actually be competitive, at least in CUSA. But it doesn't have a different offensive scheme, and it is not competitive in CUSA.
I was thinking of it this way today. My first two years at Rice, the football team was 2-8. But that included wins over TexasU and LSU, and last-minute losses to #2 UCLA and SWC champion SMU. Four conference moves later (SWC to WAC-16 to Leftover WAC to CUSA to Leftover CUSA), at least three of which were steps down, and Rice is winning one more game per year. I'm guessing this team would not win a game against the schedules that either of the two 2-8 teams faced.
But hey, we do have new logos.
