OFFICIAL ROCKTOBER PREDICTIONS (post #8K)3 straight road games may be bad, but the month of october is going to be extremely difficult
My "realistic predictions" (even though i think we have a chance every week) @ TCU L (their defense is just too good. the only chance we have is if BLM manages the game the right way. Not sure he is there yet, but he's had two weeks to prepare. On the downside TCU still has a bitter taste in their mouth, so I look for them to come out swinging). ECU W (this may be a stretch, and stallion will say that nobody has seen them play.... But WVU threw for 334 yards against them (24/31 4TD/1INT). WVU also ran for 153 on 29 carries. WVU looked good tonight against Colorado, but Colorado is terrible. WVU Total O-509 ECU TOTal O-237. I think our offense can compete in this one) Navy L (our defense is better, but its all about sticking with your assignments. our athletes can compete with navy, and if we get up early can win this game. But do we have the discipline? I really want to say we can win this game) @ Houston L (They play 3 straight road games, and the only one they may lose is @ miss state. So we may be heading down there facing a team in the top 5... good reason for the mustangs to get up, good reason for the houston fans to be out of control) @ Tulsa L (SMU always performs well against Tulsa... However, Tulsa's Damaris Johnson is probably the best skill player we will see all year, I just don't see it happening. however, SMU may be able to catch Tulsa looking ahead to the Houston game) This is all dependent on the play of BLM. If he is over his illnesses and learns to throw to our team, we may have a chance in more (but as i said navy will depend on the defense). As much [deleted] as I give BLM, I think he is more then capable to lead us to a bowl game this year, and October will be a big test for him as we will face off against two great offenses and the best defense he has seen in his short career. If we can get out of October with two wins, we should go to a bowl. One win and its going to be a stressful november. WEST DIVISION CHAMPS 2010

Five wins and JJ's solid gold statue goes next to Doak's in JJ Plaza, Kate asks out 94, and Stallion complains our #22 ranking is too high.

Re: OFFICIAL ROCKTOBER PREDICTIONS (post #8K)ExP, I can't believe you wasted your 8000th post on something relevant. Your sensei, 94, is probably standing on the ledge of a tall building over this clear and present betrayal. Might want to give him a call and talk him down at this point.

Re: OFFICIAL ROCKTOBER PREDICTIONS (post #8K)Will Darius Johnson return for any of these games?
I hope he gets in there when we play Tulsa, and remains one of our top 3-4 for the rest of the season. That might help Bo throw to the right guys...
Re: OFFICIAL ROCKTOBER PREDICTIONS (post #8K)We definitely won't get the interceptions against Navy, which could be a problem. On the other hand, we seem to be much, much faster to the ball on running plays (from what I have seen). Methinks the result will be better and more positive than last year, but we will still lose.
Tulsa and Houston are probably unapproachable at this point. Especially after UTEP handed it to UH. I hope we win against ECU. That would give us some huge momentum, and maybe, just maybe, people would go back to the happy go-lucky fun time (like after the UAB game). Tequila helps when you are an SMU fan....
Re: OFFICIAL ROCKTOBER PREDICTIONS (post #8K)for those that have CBS C, the announcers of the Navy/Air Force game (replayed all week) made a very interesting point that distinguishes Ricky Dobbs from 95% of option QBs. Usually the triple option QB hands to the FB, reads the end or pitches outside. Dobbs will hit any gap on whichever side he runs. He really likes likes to run inside and for an option QB that's rare. If you get a chance watch Dobbs from that perspective.

Re: OFFICIAL ROCKTOBER PREDICTIONS (post #8K)air force has had a tough year... they should have gone in to double overtime, lost to an inferior minnesota team, and the rest of their schedule is stacked (exception of army, but its a "rivalry" game). ESPN predicted them to play in the Bell Helicopter Bowl at the beginning of the season, not sure if thats going to happen now.

Re: OFFICIAL ROCKTOBER PREDICTIONS (post #8K)i dotn want to get too excited after this game... but we MAY be able to pull out a win in the next three weeks.. our defense is playing REALLY well. if our offense plays the way it did tonight against any of our next 3 opponents we have no chance... BUT, IF the defense has the right scheme in place for Navy, UH, or TU, and the offense steps up their game, we have a chance.
Ladies/Gentleman we have a REAL chance of going to a bowl game. The team has to compete every week, but there is a real chance we will be playing in December! WEST DIVISION CHAMPS 2010
Maybe 6 winsI'll venture as high as 6 wins this year. We can beat UTEP, Tulane, and Rice. Maybe we can steal another game to reach this year's goal.
