I just wanted to look at the overall remainder of the season. There are 4 teams left and I looked up their offensive and defensive rankings. Obviously, there are more metrics that determine the outcome, but I just wanted to look at this from a high level.

Besides UTSA, we are not facing world-beater defenses. From the Army game, I saw, even UTSA can be scored on. 

  • 2 of our remaining 4 teams are having offensive struggles 
  • 2 of our remaining 4 teams are struggling defensively. (Sadly so are we) Charlotte was a big surprise at 45th. I am not sure how they are ranked so high, but they held a few teams under 25 pts including UF.
  • We are definitely more evenly matched with Memphis than it seems. 

Bowl game or bust! Go Bulls!!! :04-rock:

  Offensive Ranking Defensive Ranking
USF 35th 118th
Memphis 34th 92nd
Temple 96th 123rd
UTSA 53rd 62nd
Charlotte 118th 45th

Looks like that Memphis game is (in theory) a coin flip. I assume Temple to be a win, and UTSA to be a loss. Charlotte holding UF to less than 24 means nothing to me, we almost beat them with CJS so……

Maybe I'm greedy, but if we can somehow split with Memphis and UTSA, then also beat both Temple and Charlotte, not only would we be bowl eligible, but we'd have a winning 7-5 record in year one of a r

Didn’t know Charlotte’s defense was that good. 
 

We gotta go all out for that game— might be fighting for a postseason.

They run the ball a good deal while on offense, so their D is not on the field as much.

It will be a tough game.

With our roster how it is not feeling we beat either Utsa or Memphis unless we have some hidden freshmen studs on this team and if we did why were they not played earlier. 

Charlotte and Temple those two we for sure need to win to get that 6th win.

Didn't realize we were more evenly matched with Memphis "on paper". Might be decided by turnovers?

The only for sure win is Temple. Charlotte could get lucky and beat us if our offense helps them.

Depends on which USF team shows up. Unfortunately playing on potential will get your butt waxed.

Every single game left is winnable. 

We're just so inconsistent it's hard to predict

I think team has yet to have its Syracuse moment but it could come this weekend
