I think he might be concerned, all coaches say good things about the next team
on the schedule, but he knows if we play like we did Saturday it could be rough.

This game holds a particular relevance because of the teams that USF has played to-date. NC State beat them 45-0 and Florida won 42-20. Both of those teams are now ranked. An important eye test is not only that we win but by how much we win as it will give us a point of comparison against ranked teams (and those two in particular), as we ourselves try to get ranked. NC State since beat Clemson (although not the same Clemson team it’s still Clemson) and Florida barely lost to Alabama.

We better be VERY careful with this game.

He talks about the depth on our roster compared to theirs and says they are where SMU was 5 years ago. Hope that depth wears them down and can put them away comfortably in the 2nd half. I expect them to come out fired up and worried that our guys may not match USF's intensity from the opening kick. Coaching challenge this week.

Good point. Include BYU in this mix, and every team USF has lost to this year is ranked in the top 25 right now.

we had better be ready to play. This indeed could be a trap game if we come out flat.

[Charleston Pony]

USF has played a really tough schedule so far and that alone should have them prepared for SMU

[Lotus]

And if it rains ... just win

Nice to go against a coach who comes across as a solid, respectful person and not unhinged...

[Diamond Girl]

If they play like they did last weekend, we could be in trouble.

That's what I was thinking. I know nothing about that guy, but he seems like a good dude.

Yes and Clemson started winning National Championships after Chad left.

And Chad leaves Arkansas and the Hogs are now off to a 4-0 start.
(but will lose this weekend @ Georgia)

[HubbaHubba]

Has Chad been gone long enough that we are now national championship contenders?
