Need to give Santiago a code red.

Should of been 7-2 right now, not say im mad, just disappointed since we beat TCU i figure thats when you should have your best season. Rice should be auto win, again i emphasis should be. Houston, I personally think its all offense for them. They havent played anyone that was heavy on defense. I think when they play us it will be a reality call, since they got the easy conference schedule. Im trying to think other than the crap of Pac 10 (UCLA), what else is there? We actually beat a ranked team... lets not get too intimidated by the almighty undefeated record.. I think we can still pull a 9-3, and get out of the hawaii bowl situation and land the ticketcity.

For those that have not watched Rice play you had better be prepared for a tough game. They handed Tulsa 17 points in the first quarter and then played them even up. We will have 6,000 in the stadium to "inspire" our team.

We're certainly not heavy on defense, our guys have been sliced up by lesser QBs than Keenum. Like every other team Houston has faced, we don't have the DBs to slow down Houston receivers and we don't have the front 7 to get Keenum on the ground consistently. Either McD has the game of his life and matches Keenum score for score or we're getting blown out. If you want out of the "Hawaii Bowl situation" then root for Hawaii to finish with less than 7 wins.

You are wildly optimistic. Saw them play Texas and they moved the ball pretty well. We will have our hands full.

I dont see any reason why SMU wont be 8-4.

I would assume that means a trip to Hawaii and a shot at 9 wins.

Three years ago Ponyfans would give their left nut for a season like that.

All 4 loss are respectable with most of them coming from Top 25 teams.

Cougar High doesnt really have much of a defense.

If JJ has a big game they can keep up with Cougar.
