For ECU

vs UC
vs USF
vs Memphis
vs UCF
vs Houston
vs SMU
vs Tulane
vs Tulsa

USF and UC were never heated contest back in the day, however, I wonder how their tenure in the BE has changed them in the years between.

UCF, Houston, Memphis, and SMU are only one season removed from being a CUSA foe.... I'm thinking Houston and UCF will be a little hotter than normal.

I've thought about this off and on, but most of us are trying to improve our programs in big ways. It's not like we're idly sitting by as if it were 2008 or something. We've got programs coughing up big bucks to get better. I certainly hope we benefit from each others competition.

It's like "Welcome to the new neighborhood, same as the old neighborhood" except that everyone has put new roofs on their homes, painted their picket fences, and had landscapers fix up the lawns. So... it might be the old neighborhood, but it's not the "same".

You ECU and Tulane guys are not going to recognize UC's program from when you played in the past. The talent level on the field is much greater, the university supports the program waayyy more and the fan base is much larger and passionate.

Old friends. New Friends. Bring it. All of you.

That's the spirit.

We'll just have fond memories (sort of...I was young).
