Good 2 Game Stretch Coming Up

Post by SMU 86 »

Navy and Houston. Navy is looking good this week. I still believe we can finally beat them next week. Go Mustangs.

Navy isn't stopping the pass very well this year. We have troubles with the triple-option. Should be a shoot out and hopefully a big win for us!

Beat navy!

We better learn to love the triple option being in the same conference as both AFA and Navy

I have to say I feel the complete opposite of this.

Umm...we're not losing to Rice.
Navy is beatable, especially since we're at home.
Not counting on beating UH, especially on the road.
2-1 in final 3. Finish regular season 8-4.

Then I hope you are right PonyPlayer4.

This team is too inconsistent for me to feel very optimistic. The talent isn't quite there yet. We SHOULD beat Navy and blow out Rice (and give Houston a little bit of a run if the guys really want to and are up for the challenge). But the aTm, USM, and Tulsa games (and the 3rd quarter today) leaves me thinking otherwise.

I hope I'm proven wrong.

Navy threw the ball a little more than average today. And looked good doing it.

2-1 is how we finish out...no way against UH.

SO TRUE. let's at least get a Vic over Navy PLEASE. I think we will have to play our BEST game to stay within 2 TDs of UH. Especially watching 3Q of today's game not to mention last week's no show.

We beat TCU, didn't we? We have a puncher's chance against Houston.

TCU didn't have Case Keenum and when they decided to run the HUNO we couldn't stop them. McD needs to have the game of his life for us to have a puncher's chance, anything less and we're getting blown out by Houston yet again.

the hurry up is definitely a concern, but we were also playing prevent against TCU and not rushing anybody. I think our guys finish the season strong and get up for that Houston game with a chance for another big win that would redeem the USM and Tulsa showings.
