changing my prediction for 2008

[bulls96go]

i was an 11-1, 12-0 optimist

now i am a 8-4, 9-3 pessimist.

crappy questionable coaching will do that to you

Same. Im really worried about Kansas now.

Looking at the big east so far this season I think we win the conference for sure.  We may lose next week and maybe we drop one of the big east games but I would bet we win at least 10 games. I expect a much better game next week against Kansas.

I think we were really as into this game as UCF was, expect us to bring our A game.

Come off the ledge. If you remember, Texas struggled there last year. I think they have now lost 2 games in that stadium by a combined total of 10 points. Give them a little credit.

Sure, coaching could have been better, but we got the 'W' and thats all that matters.

If you've been watching the BE this season, I would lean toward more optimist as far as our record goes. Let's see what happens Friday before we throw in the towel.

I think we do need a new OC though.

I meant to say we weren't into this game as much as UCF. It was there super bowl it was our tuneup.

[E.T.]

I'm staying at 13-0

chicken little.

we will be fine.  if anything, my expectations are higher now.  not because of how we have played but because of how bad the big east is this year.

[E.T.]

We have a few chicken little fans ...

Our D allows 2 TD's in about a minute of playing time under about 3 minutes left in the game and our Kick Coverage allows a return for TD ... 21 points. We miss 2 FGs -6 points.

And our offensive play calling is the reason for our close win ?

Silly Reasoning.

Go BULLS !!!

^^^ this ... and, as said above, get down off the ledge.

I still think we lose one... Worst case, two. Even then, we might still win the BE.

I also like what our close away-game win at FIU did to the team last year (won 64-12 at home the next game).

Looking forward to Kansas.

I got a hard time understanding the play calling in the last few minutes.  I have tried - up by two scores and your defense has only given up 3 points all day.  How do you not bleed the clock?  You have a junior QB and you assume he understands the game situation well enough to only throw it if the guys wide open?  Really, I just can't figure out the call.  Poor special teams and coaching in the last few minutes are definitly what almost cost us this game.  I think CJL basically said as much in his post game interview.
