Is it me, or did our players seem to have a really hard time this week keeping their footing?

Wow. No one has ever called the Stanford offense a west coast offense. I'm sure Becht is right and the rest of the world is wrong. Please find me a quote of anyone else in the world calling this a west coast offense. Whoever said Becht is an expert? Not to get in the middle of your discussion, but here you go: http://www.mercurynews.com/sports/ci_26412330/purdy-stanford-football-not-messing-tradition The relevant section of the article: "I confirmed this again Tuesday, as the new college season approaches. I asked Cardinal coach David Shaw if he had ever considered switching from the team's longtime prostyle West Coast offense to the spread offense that is all the rage in college football today."

:) I graduated from Furman and I have lots of good memories. It is certainly one of the most beautiful campuses that I have been on, especially in the Fall.

45-21 over a bad D2 Brevard. 35-17 over a bad D2 Catawba. 35-17 over Fuhrman. That's "blowing out" teams? They are comfortable, unspectacular wins over weaker competition. If I were a WCU fan, I'd be marginally content. As a USF fan, I'm not impressed with our win over them. Our loss to Wisconsin was more impressive than our win over WCU. I see WIN over Brevard. WIN over Catawba WIN over Fuhrman Not to nitpick, but it is Furman. No h in the name and they are a better team than you think.

Wife and I probably going to SMU. Our daughter, the USF Alum, now lives in Dallas and sent us this information so we can plan the trip! There is an early flight out on Southwest that Saturday that may work, provided the game isn't too early.

I think it also helped that Houston's D-Line is somewhat undersized and our O-Line was not overwhelmed by them as they were in the Miami game.

Taildragger huh? Not sure I could land one of those. This is what I learned in : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_152 This is what most of my hours have been in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_172 This is what I want to fly: http://www.cessna.com/citation/citation-m2/citation-m2-overview.html

Cessna has never built a plane that comes with a parachute. there is an option made by an aftermarket company, however the addition of the parachute takes away about 50 - 75 pounds of useful load. You may be thinking about another airplane, the Cirrus SR22, which does come with a parachute. http://cirrusaircraf...achute#products Cirrus? I thought it was Cessna. My bad. No biggie... didn't mean to sound like an ass.

I can't use my Miami tickets, so I actually contacted them by phone. Bonnie still works there, they just changed the email addresses. Her new email is bonnie.mangione@bbbsfl.org. I am mailing them 4 tickets today to use on Saturday.

What he said!

Who cares about Michael Jordan's son, we have the much more "Famous" recruit.

Can't find it now, but I saw a picture of our players on the UCF loga after Saturdays game with the shovel in the ground. I hope they were NOT digging, but I am not sure from the picture. Maybe we should either leave the shovel at home or on the sidelines... lol. I guess I am too slow. look up

Orange Bowl shouldn't even be a blip. If you can't fill up the stadium, it isn't any tougher than any other place. Did you sellout your Conference "Championship" game at the frying pan? You seem to be new here, so I'll give you a little history on this game. UCF wasn't in control of ticket sales. It was run by CUSA and they blew it. People got discouraged because they kept thinking there were no tickets available. CUSA only released a little bit at a time, so it seemed like no tickets were available when they really were. Miami couldn't even sell out against FIU and they are both IN MIAMI.(For the record, I never said UCF should be on the list, so I don't know why you brought it up to me). DP, You might want to look at NOBAMA83 again if you think he is new here.

As my name implies, I am a Bull Dad. My daughter is a Freshman in the band.

Section 107 Row Y

Am I reading this right? If (when!) the women beat Seton Hall, their 2nd round game is against UConn?

I talked to someone in the Bulls office on the flight to Birmingham about this briefly. I don't remember all of the conversation, but basically he said that there were still plans, but it would probably not have the bull on the field. It would probably be in a cage outside the stadium for the fans to see, etc. The main issue was liability I think.

Forgot about the out of town Bulls that make the home games.  It certainly makes it harder. We will be there from Orlando, but it sure cuts out the tailgating for this game. As somebody said earlier in the thread, it's no big deal in the grand scheme of things. The national exposure as we beat Auburn and WVU will make up for it! GO BULLS!

It's always different, I remember I heard when we agreed to move our Cinci game in 2004 to Halloween Night the conference offered to throw in an additional kicker as an incentive.  So, yes I would say probably friday, weds, and holiday games the conference would give you special consideration. Bien, I wish they would have offered us an additional kicker last year!

lsteele2 - I hope that the BB Pep band takes all of this with a little grain of salt. I have tried to stay out of this fight because I have a daughter in the band, but I want you to know that there are a lot of us out there that support your efforts for the athletics department. Izzo does seems like an avid fan and I am sure that he gets upset by the band at times. I would hope that eveybody could tone down the rhetoric a little and try to take positive steps to ensure that EVERYBODY has a good time while respecting the work and efforts of others. this includes the band and the fans that show up for every game. My 2 cents.
