Bench was injured. Had a Grade 2+ sprain just a few weeks ago. Just this side of a tear. There was hope that the extra 4 days would have him ready for Houston but that was doubtful as well.

Bench was not entirely healthy. Jogging forward and back was pretty good. Cutting was very difficult. Not revealing sources since I got blasted in the past. But the kid isn't near 100%. Edit: If he had been 100% he would have started, right?

Very surprising that Bench played today. Heard that he had no lateral movement. But the plan was to play Bench if Eveld went down with an injury that would keep him out of the game and to play Floyd if Eveld just got dinged up and would only be out for a few plays or a series.

Taggart announced in his post game radio show after being questioned by Louk & Robinson that White would start at Houston. So what happens when the 4th QB of the year doesn't lead us to any offensive TD's. Will people on here finally admit that it is the dropped passes and lack of pass protection that are getting these kids beat up? I hope we put up 40 vs. Houston but really don't think that will happen.

Thought I heard that most of their O-line were seniors. Bortles is a Jr from what I read in the paper. Don't see him leaving early. The RB is a stud and he'll be back next year I believe.

Lethal Weapon from the Board knows more about the area. Believe he lives/lived there. Do you know which airport you are/would be flying in to?

Its now on Bruce b downs by what used to be a brickyard and is now acropolis, and the land and sea market. They're all in the same plaza. Gotcha. I know right where that is, even better than that terrible mall. Thanks! The new setup is pretty good, the food is excellent, and the beers are always cold. Very kid friendly. My 3 year old loves that place. Bucket list - Samuel Adams Utopia... Its now on Bruce b downs by what used to be a brickyard and is now acropolis, and the land and sea market.

Save them for Houston if you think that those 5 days make a big difference. That Thursday night game is coming at a bad time injury wise. A couple more days could make a difference for both of them.

A friend of ours is a WVU fan. He hates the fact that they can't easily go to away games. If given a choice, his would have been for them to stay where they were. Don't know if the schools are concerned about fans as much as money.

Quit living in the 90's. The NCAA has set a recent precedent for punishing former coaches more than current schools. And I love the insults. Reminds me of 3rd grade. Come on. Don't stoop that low. Your posts have been excellent so far and I pretty much agree with you. Personally think a few more schollies should have been lost but overall you guys have suffered. And USF fans are jealous because none of our boosters are that wealthy or arrogant.

Should be an even match.

Are you renting a car? Probably the best way. Also depends on which airport. Reliant, if I remember correctly is on the south side of town. Hobby Int'l is closer than the other which used to be Bush, not sure if it is still called that.

He was supposed to give it a try today. Have not yet heard how it went. It was a fairly severe sprain but he was ahead of "schedule" whatever that entails.

Welcome. Hope you enjoy inane chatter.

With the stars blanking out his first name I am assuming you are talking about Richie Allen. He was a beast. Came up the same year as the Giants Jim Ray Hart. They battled for ROY award. Allen used to write words in the dirt at Connie Mack while playing first base wearing his helmet. What a character.

My guess is Bench doves not play this week but will vs. L'ville

I believe we beat FSU during a whiteout for which we had to give permission. Your memory is correct +2, thanks for remembering that, CR! My point is furthered. At this age it is good to hear that my memory still works occasionally.

Yes. It will be blacked out on ESPN3 in the local area. Reason # 58392938575778238291929382848575636274737236362636 not to get fios Except BH stated a couple of years ago that last season would be the last that they were carrying college sports. So I believed them and switched. Plus their internet speed and reliability was killing us so pretty much had to switch.

I agree, it's great to see her at the events and cheering on the Bulls! We went to the Monday Jazz night (or something like that) last Monday. In walks Judy. It seems like she attends everything. Would love to have her energy. Talked to her at an alumni event a year or two ago. Told her we were life members but that we didn't go to the school and didn't know what to tell people. She said "Tell them you are good friends of the University". We've gone with that ever since. with benefits? Sure. Get to go to numerous USF events.

We were lined up 15 yards off instead of the 10 that is required. After their timeout, our guys lined up correctly 10 yards off the ball. It wasn't something he didn't like but something he liked. Unfortunately for him, our guys corrected it after their timeout and the rest is history. From what I was seeing they were lined up 15 back and then someone on the field started waving his teammates up to the 10 yd spot. That is when they called timeout. They would have had a much better shot at recovery before the timeout IMO. We looked a bit disorganized.

Both are capable of beating us. But these are games we "could" win. Don't think we have a prayer against L'ville and @RU
