UCF, Navy and Memphis have a combined won-loss record of 18-3. Yikes.

Well, I think we are due for a breakout game so hopefully we play well enough to upset at least one of those teams.

its likely to be at least 21-3 after they play SMU. I don't see us beating any of those teams. But its going to be fun to see if they can. I actually think Navy might be our best shot-and that's not a good thing

Someone spikes the defenses water cooler with Medifast - we knock off UCF and finally stop Navy.

It's not going to be navy. Look how much trouble one standard RB gave our linebackers. Wait till they get three on every play where you can't tell where they are going.

I think our best shot is UFC since we are at home. Our d backs really came around second half. Hope the D can build on that.

I know I'm just trying to be and SMU fan.
You know the kind that talks a big game but doesn't go to the games...

Throw SMU’s record in with them and the sum is 24-5. Still sounds just as daunting.

If we’re really going to take on UFC tho, I want an entire roster of Quinn clones.

American Rising!

I don't even want to think about what Navy is going to do to our defense, but hopefully our offense can let us hang with them.

Hopefully, we'll send the seniors out with a win versus Tulane and avoid going 0-for-November.

I think that plays to our strength. If we are constantly out of position, a Navy RB is bound to run strait into one of our guys....eventually.

Our offense gives us a chance in every game. We might have to rely on penalties and turnovers to stop those teams, but the offense will keep it close enough to give us a chance if we actually do get some stops.

Tulsa win can't be overstated. May beat Tulane for a gentlemen's 7-5.

After watching the Memphis Navy game I don't think Navy is as good as years past. QB's not great and they had a lot of uncharacteristic penalties. That being said I don't think we can beat them. UCF beat Memphis 40-13 so I don't think we have a chance there. Memphis will put up 50+ on our D easily and I don't think our O can keep up. That leaves Tulane. Maybe.

And once again it comes down to hosting UCF in an important game for the development of this program. Let's just hope the weather is good and more people show up...but I seriously doubt we will have as big a crowd as we did when JJ got disgusted and threw in the towel here.
