I wouldn’t. My hope is that we beat both Cincy and WSU at home. I feel that’s the only route. We can’t beat middle teams on the road so most likely lose to everyone but ECU and USF on the road. I pray we don’t lose to freaking weak [deleted] UCONN but this team sure shows it. Hopefully, we rebound against Tulane at home. Never did I think this team would be capable of 4 straight losses or losing other than to Cincy or WSU at home. Feels similar to the year we got snubbed from SMU where we lost a few in a row towards the end.

Will second this comment. We have a nominee for most immature or intoxicated poster of the year. At one point he or she proclaims the rest of the season means nothing, so I would invite him/her to check out and not bother coming back. I don't know to what extent the flu bug is affecting this team, but I wonder how many on this board ever played (even at the H.S. level) a game either with or coming off an illness like that? I remember all too well the feeling and it's no picnic.

So what’s the “market rate” on Jank, now, counselor?

This. Caring about the team and wanting the guys to be successful is great - and that can lead to frustration, I certainly know all to well about that. Calling them "gutless cowards" is NOT OK. Please give up on the team and never come back - you are a disgrace.

And for everyone calling Temple a horrible team and this a horrible loss, try to remember that Temple is the ONLY team to have beaten Auburn and Clemson this year. They are certainly capable of competing in this conference and this win might give them new life. Be thankful we don't have to go play them again in Philly.

Definitely seemed like they were due coming in here. Had cinci on the ropes. Maybe they righted the ship after the 21 point loss to UCF
