Houston vs South Florida, Game thread, ESPN

[Cougar King]

If "ifs" and "buts" were candy and nuts, wouldn't it be a Merry Christmas?

I wouldn't know since I always get a lump of coal.

[East Coast Mustang]

Agreed. They want none of Garrett Gilbert

If we can handle Taysom Hill, Blake Bortles (we'll see next week) and Teddy Bridgewater (we'll the week after next) then we can handle GG.

Also, when you say you handled Taysom Hill, he threw for 417 yards and 4 TDs and ran for 128 while beating you guys in Houston.

Have the cougar boars completely banned you and that's why you hang out here? I want to know why you would check pony fans for the Houston vs USF game? SMU v Houston sure, but otherwise, that makes no sense. Am I missing something?

I'm honestly very curious.

CK got banned and so did some of my satellite accounts. I don't have any reason to post there anymore, all I do is look at the boards occasionally. I'm a freelancer now.

We also sacked him 8 times, intercepted him 3 times, one of those being a pick six and forced him to fumble but it went out of bounds.

Wouldn't call that a handling when the rest of it he handled the UH D. Just saying. The again a few small handles can turn a game around a la SMU Memphis.

USF got absolutely screwed by the official on that offensive pass intereference. That call changed the entire game. Houston stole that game against one of the worst teams in the country.

And SMU stole a game from an FCS team. Also, even if the Offensive PI wasn't called. (The receiver clearly pushed Jackson and got an edge) We would have still scored and won the game since O'Korn, Greenberry and Farrow (who SMU didn't offer despite being in their back yard though that could've been because the staff got intimidated by his Pac 12 offers) were shredding USF's D with relative ease.

There is no way you are over the age of 12.

[Stallion]

I think if USF's new freshman QB plays like he did last nite they are probably mid AAC just like us-they've got some athletes on defense. That hasn't been the problem this year except one game. I've been bashing USF more than anyone but they appear to be on their way to resolving their biggest issue-the QB position.

[Treadway21]

They will be tough but I thought they would look better and they would handle USF a lot better. They don't look that far ahead of us, but we will need to find a defense and play a whole game.

[StallionsModelT]

I will need to see a larger sample size than one game against UH before I would say that the QB situation at USF is "fixed". Its improved, but it had nowhere to go but up.

Regardless of the QB improvement, if we go down to Tampa and lose that game it will be a huge disappointment. We are the better team.
