Week 13 is here. Only 3 games to pick.
.
RE: *****CUSA Lines In The Sand - Week 13 Pick ‘Em*****
UTEP 3-4 (0-3) @
Rice 1-2 (1-2)
.
Rice wins this one. UTEP was a better team this fall and seems to be moving in the right direction but I expect the Owls to win at home. Not a lot of separation here but I think Rice 28 UTEP 20.

North Texas 3-3 (2-2) @
UTSA 6-4 (4-2)
.
North Texas has been a pretty good offensive team, maybe the best in CUSA but the Road Runners have lost 4 to pretty good teams so since this game is in San Antonio I am leaning towards the home team. UTSA 35 North Texas 27.

Florida Atlantic 5-1 (4-1) @
Middle Tennessee 3-6 (2-4)
.
Despite this game being in Murfreesboro I am leaning towards the Owls. Look for FAU to ice this one in half two. FAU 42 MTSU 28

Its the final countdown.

Did you watch the North Texas game with Rice last Saturday?

While UNT still has some issues, our current defense is not the same defense that lost to Southern Miss in the opening week of conference play. Novil and the twins are killing it up front.

Rice and UTSA seem fairly comparable on defense, with Rice having an edge in pass defense. I think that is an advantage for North Texas.

Plus, North Texas leads C-USA in rushing yards and passing yards per game. We can move the ball and score. I'm sure Patrick Cobbs is talking up McCormick (5.4 YPC) in his RB meeting. So Torrey (6.3 YPC) and Adaway (7.5 YPC) are ready to show they can run too.

We will see tomorrow.

MTSU at FAU is postponed. But, really, cancelled, because I am not sure WHEN the game could be played.

I watched the entire UNT-Rice game. Halfway through the 1st quarter it look like Rice was going to deliver a real beat down on UNT. But Rice was their own worst enemy. Here's an example: Austin Trammel, a good Rice player, fumbled an easy punt, which gave NT an easy TD drive from the Rice 38. It was almost comical. Rice would make a good play, and then have a "Bad News Bears" screwup.

I think Rice is getting better, but damn......they gotta stop shooting themselves in the foot.

True. But, halfway through the first quarter is also when North Texas put both twins and Novil in the game at the same time, and that is when the sacks and tackles for loss started too. Also once that combination of players was on the field together, Rice didn't get another point until 8 seconds left in the game, when that combination was not on the field together. The same thing occurred in our win over MTSU. Once the twins entered the game with Novil, MT was effectively shut down for the rest of the game.

I think UTSA is faster and more athletic than either Rice or MT, so we should learn quite a bit about what we really have up front on defense.

Adaway had a subpar game against Rice. Only 72 yards on 14 carries. I don't know if he is was rusty from being sidelined with an injury for so long, or if the injury is lingering. I hope he is at full strength today, and putting on a show.

"Today's game between Rice and UTEP has been canceled due to positive tests and contact tracing within the UTEP program."

Will Rice show up to play Marshall next week?

And we really only have ONE game on tap this week? A new low.
