I have had a premonition of a SMU 30 -27 upset win.

Just calling it the way I saw it. Kool-aid anyone?

Not sure beating UCF would be an upset.

I asked if you wanted some Kool-Aid, not shotgun the entire keg man. :lol:

They will more than likely be starting a true freshman QB with a tendancy to run. As long as we keep the ball away from Burnett we should be able to pick them apart. The big question is can our defense, stop the run. Even if not, it's very time consuming to score. I think with the match-up this week, we win big.

Any road game is tough. Winning big on the road is not our MO right now. Any win would be alarming.

Do you realize the streaks that would be broken with a win. Div 1A losing, conference loses, road losses, and I am sure more. Seems expecting a win may be a little high on the hope charts, but I will be pleasantly surprised should it occur.

Yeah, it would. Not too proud of that, but a conference win on the road against the team some thought would win the CUSA title is an upset.

Hey, don't go getting into the Kool Aid business now. That's my domain. ;)

Finally, I think it all starts coming together this week and we win and look good doing so.

Ah yes please. You know I was really happy with the way BLM played in the 2nd half of the Tulane game. I think he is making "SERIOUS strides" and is "growing up right before our eyes" as "he plays the games one game at a time." He's just a true freshman so "there will be growing pains involved as he learns to adjust to the speed of the college game" but I think that "under the tutelage" of "offensive masterminds" Morrison and Jones, "the game will start to slow down for him" and he will become "the field general that the offense needs."

I think the defense is really starting to "buckle down" and "execute their assignments." They seem to be "grasping the scheme well" and "imposing their will on the offense."

Uh....I am out of canned sports cliches....where's that darn punch.
Larry Brown? We have Larry Brown? Cool!

My head is spinning from all of those quotation marks! Seriously, I'd like an upset. Pass the Kool-Aid, please.
