I smell way too much fear on this board.

It's about that time this year I give my annual Green and Gold goggles speech…but this ain’t it. I’ll save that “IF” we lose a game this year. In the words of Lennox (the Jamaican gangster) from the movie “Belly” (Many of you guys probably have never seen it) – “Don't you ever bring scared business to me. You lookin at the toughest rasclat Jamaican in the United States of America.” I’m trying to understand the great fear we have of upcoming Houston. Their defense is ranked 116th. They do have the 4th ranked offense, I’ll give them that. But besides that, but South Florida has the 14th ranked offense and 80th ranked defense. We are36 spots ahead of them on defense and they are 10 spots ahead of us on offense. I REFUSE 2 fear them or any other remaining teams! These stats don’t include this past weekend, but I don’t think much will change. There are only 2 teams that blow us out in both categories – Cinci and C. Every other team we blow out in either offense of defense. Truth be told, I think we are much better than our stats and have better athletes than all the teams we face.  That being said, if you scared go ahead and tuck your tail b/w your legs, but if you have faith in the football Gods, beat your chest and let’s get ready to close out this season undefeated!!!

 

USF –            Offense - #14th,    Defense #80

Houston –    Offense – #4th,      Defense #116

Tulane –       Offense -#91st,      Defense #111th

Temple –      Offence – #89th,   Defense – #65th

Cincinnati – Offense - #27th,     Defense – 4th

C. –                Offense - #3rd,       Defense- #65^th

I think the majority of fear on this board is related to people setting their expectations low so that if we lose a game, they don't get too upset

Or, setting their expectations low because they have watched the games and understand that this team/coaching staff/whatever you want to blame it on is not good enough to win every game, so, some fans are realists and manage their expectations accordingly.

People on this board reek of fear to the point where it's disgusting and I know it exists in other portions of their lives.  It really is disgusting to me.

Fear is for (In the words of Ox from belly) "Poo-sea wholes"! lol

To read Houston's board, they've already got this game in the bag.  They are going by the "eye test" and have moved onto the AAC Championship game...

[SilverBull]

That's not fear I am smelling....

[Bulls On Parade]

We are young team at some positions but we have a history of playing to level of teams...looking forward to it think we have a good chance.  Its Houston not Bama we are playing.

Well other Georgia Tech these kids have not had a game of substance so we shall see how they come out.
