Very valid point...we've been pretty atrocious (although not blown out by a FCS school), and should wait to make sure we don't embarrass ourselves.

Then again, when have fan message boards been the place for wisdom, civility, or common sense?

Yeah, silly me.

It will be hard to win but I hope we do. There is just so much gloom right now.

Yeah, well, that happens in new conferences that have 2 teams get run by FCS teams. Of course, Memphis did that last year, too. I'm just wary of making any promises, no matter how small, when it comes to our football team.

Haha, right. Maybe I should just count my blessings. He has a tendency to spill onto other schools' boards and tell them how great we are in everything.

You guys are playing Duke right? Good luck with that...that program has come a long way. It took last second heroics for UC to beat them in the Belk Bowl last year.

Cutcliffe calls a good game...and I can't help but to think he has it in for us, since we effectively cost him his last HC job.

Is that what he's saying in between the run on sentences, misspelled words, and random capitalizations in the middle of words? Huh, learn something new every day.

I'm just waiting to see if there is a secret message in the random caps...like "help, solitary is hard. Straight jacket hurts. Going to gnaw my belly button out."

Sigh, this is what happens when Memphis fans talk football.
