Please see my post on the other thread. Like me, I know you hope we kick the ever living sh*** out of ECU, win the conference, and then our bowl game.

This was more of a frustrated statement about the bickering and not directed to you. I am really a laid back kind of guy. Well actually a formerly high strung guy but so old that I have become laid back whether I like it or not. I read your other post and I do realize that you are a very good fan. I just do not like to even think about losing. The wording of your post struck me wrong and I probably overreacted when I should have just silently seethed.

I think they will invite TCU because for the simple fact that they are officially the Host school... :-)


I'd be down for a 2010 Iron Skillet rematch, but I think we all know there isn't a shot in hell that is going to happen...

Actually, it takes a .500 record, which in a 12 game schedule is 6 wins, and in a 13 game schedule is 7 wins...which is why Hawaii never goes bowling with 6 wins.

We would need a waiver to play in a bowl game at 6-7.


Teams with losing records do not deserve to go to bowl games....................why recognize failure?


Bc the loss is a playoff game
