We are like the Michael Spinks of the AAC; we haven't beaten anybody. I'm not convinced we are that solid.

Most Bulls are sold on the defense being vastly improved. I'm not.

I think Temple is going to test us. SJSU, they are terrible offensively. Illinois, I bet they'd lose to SJSU...

If our guys play a solid game and put away Temple easily, I'll drink the cool-aid with everybody.

Right now, I'm calling this as a close game. Might even be a loss for us.

 

Yes, QF is the man. Yes, our RBs are good runners. But put us in 3rd and long and with receivers dropping balls like hot potatoes, I don't like it.

Temple is going to stack the box. I guarantee it.

Add in the penalties and blocks...

Just the eye test alone shows that they are improved.  Not sure how you can't see that.

We should have very few tests this year.

The fact we've had two against inferior competition is the worry.

Temple was solid last year and playing on the road was a tall order for last year's team.  Our rushing D was terrible LY.  I took a beating on this board LY for my Temple victory prediction.  Oh well, still love this place!

Go Bulls!

We tackle this year.  Which, alone, is an improvement over past year's defenses.

Game is over by the start of the 4th.

Temple is  TERRIBLE. USF by 24 minimum.

Just watched the whole Notre Dame game. They were not terrible. QB is limited on the throws he is allowed to make. They will try to play a ball control game.  The difference has to be in our offense where the Temple defense has taken a step back and we need to exploit their secondary.
