Stewart Mandel at SI.com predicts us to go to the Armed Forces Bowl vs. Army as well.

He also predicted that Air Force would square off against Georgia Tech in the Independence Bowl. The O/U for rushing yards in that game would be 750.

If we do play against Army at Ford, I hope we take out our aggression of being unable to beat another service academy the last couple years when we clearly should have pulled out 2 wins.

I could not think of a more miserable, less desirable place to go.

it doesn't matter to me which bowl we go to. it's very important that we go to a bowl, any bowl.

They have to win both I think, but it starts with Marshall and the way they have been sleepwalking in the last 4 games...can they beat the Thundering Herd? It helps its a home game, but SMU has to score points to win...Can they do it?

No one on this board should feel 100 percent certain that this team is playing in December.

I think Marshall is 50-50. I think we have about a 10 percent chance of winning at ECU.
