on CFL, one of the hosts said about the 7 FBS teams (including 2 AAC and 2 Big 12 and 3 with point margins over 15 pts) being beat by FCS teams was that he learned that teams need to be more careful about who they schedule week one. Yeah, USF has major issues, but on the other hand, McNeese has been a powerhouse in that subdivision giving better teams than USF has been recently a run for their money. Not saying it shouldn't happen but that outsiders are tipping their hats to the quality of the these FCS teams. That surprised me, that they weren't jumping on these FBS teams and saying how bad they are.

The gap between the two is definitely narrowing. I'd rather go low level FBS over a top FCS myself. Less embarrassing to lose. Lose to Ball State you are embarrassed. Lose to McNeese and you want to hide under a rock for a year. McNeese probably just as good as Ball State. Of course the difference is we don't have to travel to McNeese and we probably have to go to the low level FBS.

So, if this is a losing season, and Taggart is able to produce a strong winning season next year (with a bowl / conference win)... Do you still want to get rid of Woolard? I am asking, because that seems to be the trend with new coaches who plan on turning around programs (even the guys over at UCF - know this).
