You Guys Will Be Just Fine

Postby MeanGreenMachine » Mon Oct 18, 2010 2:24 pm

It wasn't a conference loss. Repeat that. I know that you are on the ledge a bit this Monday. But that is a good Navy squad and you were 1,200 miles or so on the road. Your team is still maturing and winning a tough game on the road would have shown that you were ahead of the curve.. instead you on right on track. Everything you wanted to play for is still there in front of you. UH has blown up since Keenum's injury and now UTEP has spit the bit as well. Tulsa already has two losses, one at your own hand. The brass ring is there for the taking. You'll get it. You will still win the West and face either UCF or Southern Miss in the CCG. So calm down, things are just fine. It was just a good non-conference opponent on the road. That's all.

Not like you are 1-6 with your 19th QB this season starting for a high school lame duck wannabe head coach, wait... that's another discussion... Next season! New coach! Dawn of the Mean Green Decade!

I think we'd player the winner of the ECU @ USM game, but thank you for the encouragement.

The view from the ledge isn't half bad. Of course we have been cellar dwellers for so long that the ledge we are on is the basement window ledge. Still, nice to be on the ledge for a change.

i wonder if this is how LSU fans feel after a mere 7-0 start to their season?

Thanks -- the fact that there aren't more ponyfans on the ledge after that loss shows just how far we have come.

As for NTSU, we feel for you. We have been there. Once things start going bad, it seems like like nothing goes right. Injuries doesn't help when you are going downhill. Better the Dodge experiment failed for y'all and not us. We dodged (no pun intended) on that one.

Does UNT play SMU next year? I saw that there's a series with SMU coming up, but maybe that's more towards the middle of the decade. I don't like that UH is UNT's stadium opening game. I remember what SMU did to Kansas in their opener. It's a recipe for disaster.

Hopefully they won't lose 15 people to injuries next year

Correct, the first game isn't until 2014.

Why did UH agree to that game? For UH's sake, it had better be part of a 2 (or 3) for 1 series.

I would love to play UCF here in Dallas for the CUSA championship. This is my CUSA dream game. I would wear a UCF shirt pre-game and invite all UCF fans to our tailgate.

Then just before the game I would burn my UCF shirt and you tube it, completely cutting off all ties to my other alcoholic friends LMAO

What is with all the posters from other local teams that feel like they have to "console" us??

Most ponyfans are a bit disappointed but we know what our goal is this year and even though we lost, so did UH and our path is that much clearer to our goal.

Thanks for the kind words. With your wannabe coach's lame duck status, who do you think y'all will go after to commence this "Mean Green Decade"?

Please have an SMU tee shirt on under the UCF shirt.
