Tulsa is horrible. SMU is the worst D-1 team in the country. Cincy can score some points but has one of the worst defenses in the country right now, and not just when they are facing Ohio State. Memphis is playing good defense but still has offensive woes. Houston looks about the same as last year. UCF is not nearly as good as last year either. ECU is BY FAR the best team in the league. Hopefully we show up to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huh, I hadn't realized this. Neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USF will be the underdogs and could make for an exciting game. An upset here would be great. I wonder what factors influenced the seven p.m. start time vice the traditional day-time start?

I would guess it was ESPN. We're on the Espnu in the prime-time spot probably because ECU is ranked. Just a guess, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The schools get a say in requesting the times for the games if they so choose. I personally think that noon games for homecoming are stupid and am hoping that the new AD does as well... That makes absolutely no sense at all. According to other postings on this subject, Los Administration, was leaning towards the noon kickoff as a means of ensuring that the chu'ren don't suffer alcohol poisoning by having surplus time - the devil's workshop - on their hands! Now...instead the floodgates of consumption are open! And the guilt lies squarely with the new AD, who apparently has knuckled under to the pressure of the distilleries. The horror, the horror... Consider yourself, self warned. I hear that group behind you has a rather raucous tailgate planned given the late kickoff. Who am I kidding, those a-holes would tailgate like that if it were a 4:30 am kickoff! The floodgates of consumption always flow in the mall lot! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember how much it sucked not being able to watch at home? Complaining about Sat afternoon games is incredibly pompous. The only games on Sat night are the national tv games......and the ones no one cares about. Edited October 1, 2014 by BigShoop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
