For me I don't understand how GS beat USA by 15 in Mobile, although Ark St.'s loss to UCA is up there.

Neither are strange based on how they played before those games, especially state. GS almost lost to ULM, and got nearly blown out by WMU (42-17 at one point). WMU would do that to many if not all of us, but it shows this isn't the GS of years past. USA lost to a very bad ULL team which puts the GS/USA game into perspective.

I'm not sure of what strange wins are in the belt this year, but I can say the belt has been strange in general. Nearly every team has been Jeckle and Hyde. USA's win over a ranked SDSU after they beat that same team the year before, and after going 0-2 in SBC so far might qualify though. Not hating, just an observation. I'm sure, like ULL after they beat USA, jaguar fans like the train is leaving the station and they'll play really well from here on out. Wasn't the case for ULL, but we'll see what happens with USA.

As i've said before, they are two games in OT away from being 4-1. That isn't the mark of a bad team. NMSU is on the up and up this season as well as Tulane so neither of those are necessarily bad losses within the context of what Sun Belt play typically is like.

We can not score touchdowns in the red zone. That is our biggest problem. We have played 6 overtime periods. Take out 5 of those touchdowns and we score a touchdown roughly 33% of the time we are in the Redzone. If we were even 50% we would be 4-1.
