Just throwing this out there

Hey fellas,

I don't post often, but some of you may have seen me post a few links to my sports blog from time to time.

Re: Brief Football Preview

(Just to show I did my research)

I'll agree that UTEP was a reach, especially with the game in Dallas, however they are returning two of their three leading rushers, and their second leading receiver from 2010 (despite losing 9 starters on offense.)Also, they're returning 9 starters to a defense ...
