Most fans probably think that we can just phone this one in... After last week, this team needs to show up to play Bulls football. Any other assumption from the players is foolhardy.

Quote

The Pirates' last scheduled game (against Virginia Tech) was canceled. After evacuating campus a week ago, they remain sequestered in one of the giant hotels off Orlando's International Drive. As their classmates returned to school Wednesday in Greenville, they were practicing at ESPN's Wide World of Sports Complex to prepare for Saturday night's game at USF.

Although they couldn't play last week, they watched USF's 25-19 comeback win over Illinois together.

There use to be somebody on this board who would always sarcastically post "they are going to destroy us" lol I'm not sure who it was but it was funny. We can't sleep on any teams this is a weird year where teams are beating good teams and losing to bad teams.

They were probably licking their chops watching us play Illinois. Illinois game planned very well against our offense and we didn’t execute well at all, and also shot ourselves in the foot multiple times. I’m hoping we come out firing on all cylinders. I got really frustrated by long yardage plays only to see us run it up the gut for 2-3 yards the next down.

UNC is probably the biggest dumpster fire of any P5 school this year.  No surprise on that score above.

With this game being in Tampa, and the way CCS looked like he was going to rip some ass after after the Illinois game, I'm not terribly worried. And I normally get nervous about the Bulls games.

It was a former poster who has been, unfortunately, incarcerated ......

When I watched the recording, CCS looked like he was giving Wilkins some serious **** walking off the field. Anybody know what that was about?

Don't know specifically what he was saying to Mazzi but he was NOT happy with that overall game at all.

This team reminds me of 2015. They have not learned how to blow out teams. Last year I felt confident that we would blow teams out and this year every game feels like a toss up because we dont do anything well consistently.
