  1. So are the players allowed to climb the wall and go into the student section to celebrate with them?
  2. Even better is that the BCS computer rankings use Sagarin's ELO-CHESS ranking where we are #14 and UL is #20! ELO-CHESS has us ranked higher than schools like Tennessee, Boston College, Wisconsin, Texas Tech & UCLA - not bad company to be in! Also, according to Sagarin, we should favored by 15 over Pitt.
  3. We appear 1 time on the Big East national TV schedule. There are 57 games listed. That means out of 114 team appearances on national TV because of BE scheduling, they gave us 1 appearance. They wanted us for the TV market so bad. Does this not suck? http://bigeast.collegesports.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/100405aac.html
  4. At the beginning of the season, I think we all (maybe secretly) agreed that through the WVU game, a 2-5 record was a foregone conclusion. It's great that we are now talking about being 5-2 or 4-3 at that point with very winnable games left after that.
  5. Can we win 4 out these 6 games? Would put us at 7-4 overall, 5-2 BE. That would be a very respectable (and unexpected) season.
  6. According to Sagarin, if the games were held today, the spreads would be: USF -4 over Pitt WVU -2 over USF USF -4 over Rutgers USF -3 over Syracuse USF -13 over Cinci USF -3 over UConn
  7. I don't understand why they don't want to take the game plan money. To be on 360, they have to have cameras at the game - correct? So why not put it on GP and take our money?
  8. I remember watching Shawn King and the Bucs get pummeled by the Eagles on New Years Eve - in a bar in Ybor City during the Outback Bowl Parade and it was absolutley freezing.
  9. UCLA vs USF even more interesting! http://www.collegefootballnews.com/2005/Bowls/Bowl_Projections.htm
  10. Instead of making a general announcement and placing a warning on the jumbotron, they actually had the cameras on the lined up cops smiling and played the cops theme. It was almost as if they were setting up what then occured.
  11. NFL on Sunday. Bowls and TV are treating Monday 1/2 like it was New Year's Day.
  12. And they call themselves the "Band of the Hour" whatever that means. Not of the century, decade, year, month or even day...but hour - I don't get why that's a positive thing.
  13. Their band was definitely mic'ed on purpose. I've never seen that done. AND they put HOT in the upper deck - couldn't even hear them from under the overhang.
  14. I heard on some tv show, that Idaho was a screwup. A voter called in their votes (instead of electronic ballot) and it was supposed to be for Boisie State, but the tabulator marked it down as Idaho in error.
  15. Interesting that the BCS uses Sagarin ELO-CHESS which is just winning and losing (no margin of victory) and we are now #18. Under the regular Sagarin rating, we are #46 which I guess is used more by odds makers and othe prognosticators.
  16. Playing K-State in Shreveport would be great. I think a holiday weekend Friday afternoon game in LA would draw a lot of Bulls fans. Of course, this has about a 0.5% chance of happening.
  17. Cyber, I am not a PJ fan and do recognize that is a major deficiency with our program.  I guess what I was saying is that even given that deficiency and half of his passes hit the ground 3 yards in front of the receiver, we really would have had a slim chance last night if the receivers give it their all.  I kind of wrote some of it off to wet gloves and a wet ball.  I guess stick-em is still outlawed.
  18. Is this what you're looking for? Click on Helmet Project. http://www.nationalchamps.net/
  19. At least 5 passes were not caught that were on target and 2 of those were interceptions deflected by our receivers that turned into scores for UM.  These guys have to catch the ball if it hits them in the chest or hands - they are highly recruited D1A receivers. This game could have EASILY been 13-10 at the half (if we could catch the **** ball) and who knows what might have happened then. BTW, my first trip to the OB - forget all the history - the place is an awful rust dump worse than the CB.
  20. Again they said the entire BE for this season is on the line with WVU vs VT tomorrow. No mention that the Bulls could also represent big time against the former BE.
  21. I thought there was no general parking available on site so what opens at 4pm?
  22. That's up from #92 last week! All these computer dudes help as a composite of their rankings count 1/3 towards BCS standings.
  23. I sent an email through the contact us link on the page - assumed it goes to him.
  24. This is awesome - assuming all the light bulbs work, we will actually get statistics during a game!
  25. We keep hearing about the rowdy general admission end zone so I am glad we're at the other end with a kid in tow. What's weird though is that according to their seating chart, their Family Zone is also in that end zone. http://hurricanesports.collegesports.com/tickets/tickets-m-footbl-chart.html
