Re: Gilbert over 2,000 yards

He also is a leader in statistics in SACKS...

He's doing very well for what he's been given.

Re: Senior Bowl Week - Margus Hunt

Well, I watched most of the second half. He did have a lot of penetration. But sometimes he was taken advantage of. The announcers actually noted a couple of times how he had been burned. But Margus was playing a 4-3 defense and he's used to a 3-4. He would be a step from the QB and the QB would ...

Re: SDSU: Breaking down Mountain West vs. Big East

I honestly think that Boise State stayed in the MW instead of BE is based on OUR bowl performance (and others that are joining the NBE). In the MWC they are the king of the conference and no one can compete. In the NBE, they would be ordinary. Look at their performance against Fresno State (my ...

Re: Dieter Transfering

Wow! You guys are all negative. Dieter is a great kid. I can't imagine being in his shoes right now. Every negative person on this post/forum should take a look at this from his perspective.

He had a choice - SMU or Notre Dame????

One of the teams is undefeated and going to play Alabama for the ...

Re: 4 bowls in 4 years

I think that our recruiting has improved a lot with the arrival of JJ. Just compare the recruiting classes of Phil Bennett with those of JJ and you will see improvement. Heck if it were not for JJ, Zach Line would not have been recruited by anyone. I think JJ is recruiting to the level that they can ...

Re: SMU #1 --- WTF?

It's because we are beating teams that are ranked (RPI rank) much higher than us. It's harder for teams like UCONN to beat higher (RPI) ranked teams since they are usually at the top. It will change from game to game/hour to hour based on the projected wins/losses of teams that are/were in the top ...

Re: More Espn.com Love

I completely disagree. Layola M. was ranked in the top 100 before they lost to us. TCU was then also ranked in the top 100 before us. WE were ranked #260 or so depending on the source. Texas St was right near us in ranking. It is a huge upset to beat the folks that are over 100 away from us in ...

Re: Big East News

I think a larger conference invite is out of the question until we get a larger fan base. I read all the time that our average attendance is only 20k for home games. Conference expansion is about making money. A new conference wants to make money by increasing its value to the tv market. The more ...

Re: Not that it matters...

Great point. Tulsa only has to lose one of their next two games. Houston or UCF. Then your exactly correct that we control our own destiny in the final game.

Re: Dallas Cowboys Fans are Screaming for Cole Beasley

Cole is not playing now because he is only viewed as a replacement slot receiver. The Cowboys have a slot receiver right now - the ultra expensive Miles Austin. Cole probably won't see the field that much until they decide to bench Miles (or Miles gets hurt). Everyone is holding on to the belief ...

Re: Sunshine Scenario

UCF is eligible! They appealed the decision and while the appeal is in place they are eligible for a bowl game until it is decided upon (which will be after bowl season). Pretty smart for UCF to do so, huh?

Re: Defense leading country in takeaways, INTs..

Tulsa is a run oriented offense. They have 3 RB's in the top ten in the conference for yards gained.

But they have yet to play a really good team in the conference. They have played: UAB, Tulane, UTEP, Marshall and Rice - they only won by small margins in each of those games (except Tulane). The ...
