Those aren't mediocre bowls. Our performances were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, we make a bowl, but it is not certain yet by a long shot. Otherwise, I agree that Skip has nothing to worry about Bowl or not. He is going to get a pass for at least a couple years. This weeks game should still be an indicator of what kind of progress the team is making. Have my fingers crossed.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a shot. His stock took a major hit when he was injured. Have to admit I'm surprised he didn't end up in Canada, but I guess that could still happen.

The Great 8 Posted October 31, 2010 Group: Member Topic Count: 0 Content Count: 3,802 Reputation: 372 Days Won: 3 Joined: 09/21/2009 Share Posted October 31, 2010 To win the conference we need:a.) To win the rest of our in-conference games,b.) Pitt needs to lose to someone aside from us,c.) Syracuse needs to drop 2 games.d.) WVU needs another loss.As odd as it sounds, hoping for Syracuse to drop 2 of their last 3 conference games seems the most far fetched out of all the points as they have the worst teams left on their slate (Rutgers, UConn, Louisville).I don't think anyone is going 7-0 or 6-1 in conference. The real trouble will be if WVU or Syracuse is one of the 5-2 teams then we lose the head-to-head, anyone else being 5-2 we'd hold a tie breaker over. (Though I believe there's whacky rules if there's a 3+ way tie..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Though I believe there's whacky rules if there's a 3+ way tie..)That's pretty much it. The following is from the other thread, but I still don't know if a loss against Miami would affect us or not.So let me get this right...USF wins out in BE play they will be BE champs IF WVU loses one more game...Cuse loses 2 more games, and Pitt loses one more game + the USF game?Depends whether OOC games count or not. There are only 2 left. In your scenario, PLUS we beat Miami, AND Cuse beats BC, the best each team could end up would be as follows (but not all of these can happen together, of course);School, Conf record, OOC, TotalUC: 5-2, 2-3, 7-5CONN: 4-3, 3-2, 7-5UL: 4-3, 3-2, 7-5Pitt: 4-3, 2-3, 6-6RU: 5-2, 3-2, 8-4USF: 5-2, 3-2, 8-4Cuse: 4-3, 3-1, 7-4 (only 1 FCS game counts)WVU: 4-3, 4-1, 8-4That could potentially leave USF tied with UC, RU (or both), and at 5-2, and we'd hold head-to-head tie-breakers against each.However, if we lost to Miami, the best we could finish is 5-2, 2-3, 7-5, while RU could potentially hit 5-2, 3-2, 8-4, with a better overall record.Not sure what would happen in this situation, even though we beat RU, they could potentially bump us out if OOC games count.

Guest nybullsfan Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 Just to be safe (and because I hate them!) we should wish for another RU loss as well.Go Bulls! SMASH Rutgers!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
