[Velcro]

yeah, we were the brides maid to LVille this year...  they beat us 45-14... wait...   they were our bridesmaid  ;D

[Guest BullsFans]

Gee and they will also have both Brian Brohm and Chris Caldwell back at quarterback.  Two very talented,  game proven QB's...something USF fans can only dream of.

A good defense beats a good offense. If Steve Nich comes back we should be fine.

No way do we beat lville at lville next year.  They'll be top 10 and won't fall for our BS trick plays again.

[SkypointBull]

Not saying we will beat them. But I think it will be alot closer than we expect.

If we get an offense. We can beat them. UL is losing Dumerville. If we can get a real gameplan on O and move the ball and give our D a rest we have a shot at pulling it off.

No way do we beat lville at lville next year.  They'll be top 10 and won't fall for our BS trick plays again.

Never say never...

A good defense beats a good offense. If Steve Nich comes back we should be fine.

Would you care to explain how the Buc's managed to lose 26 straight games despite having a very good defense?

We weren't exactly fine this year.
