How do you feel if you're the special teams coach, you get called in to be the interim head coach, and you realize you have to prepare for a team that just put up 77.

Interesting approach to on-the-job training.

Well Houston had to return 12 kickoffs and 1 punt plus extra point defense 11 times. Sounds like the special teams coach may be who they need.

Oh crude. The last time we had a near winless team fired their coach before we played them, they ended with a win an and a 3rd string TE makes it as a Heisman candidate.

Don't worry...USF's starting QB is going to play.

We only collapse when backup QUARTERBACKS play...ahem...
