While the bulls and their fans took a step back from many angles Saturday. Many fsu fans I talked to leaving the stadium were disappointed and jimbo was hopping mad at his players after the game for playing so poorly and giving up so many points to an inferior team. I am at least happy to give those annoying noles fans some grief by scoring 35 points on them. Go bulls, beat cincy.

Hilariously in denial.

It just felt good to have some of them pissed after getting war chanted out of our own stadium after the game.

Time to focus on the conference and step up defense.

Well you have to take what you can get in the non p 5. I believe in general, a 5 win p5 team is equal to a 10 win non p5 school...they both go to crappy bowl games and get about the same exposure. It's an all or nothing proposition for us now. Moral victories are all you got if you don't go undefeated in the non p5. I would argue that the aac championship is a moral victory. Not many would care outside of the few american conference fans.

5-win teams go to bowls?

Nothing about Saturday was a success, unless you want to say we definitely were the "best worst team" on the field.

That's not to say the rest of this season cannot be a success. I hope we use this feeling to parlay into focus the rest of the season. At that point, maybe we can look back and call it a success.

If we win out, I believe that we can still play a name team. If not, we're probably in st. Pete playing an underachieving team in a game that would only matter to the 10k bulls fans that are there. At least if we take care of business in conference we can still talk trash to all the tulsa and Tulane fans that we know.

SBN has us predicted to play Notre Dame in Birmingham. Anything can happen.

In the AAC, you are about 2 to 2.5 games back behind the P5 record, and that is proven by the end of the year polls. Meaning if an AAC team is 10-2, it is equivalent to an 8-4 (P5) or a 7-5 (SEC) school. Yes, SEC gets even extra benefit of the doubt.
