I think that UTEP is better than their record. They worry me. Especially if we can 't move the ball.

I just hope we head to El Paso with a smart game-plan (I know, I know!).

Dude every team worries you. They need to win this game to help make it to a bowl game. If they don't then June could be officially on the hotseat. I believe they beat UTEP. No more excuses.

I thought June was at least on the toasty-seat after the ASU stunt. If you can believe this, UTEP's offense is far worse than ours. For the first time in many years, they actually have a bit of defense going. Our defense will create most of the scoring early on, then we'll see some Zach Line touchdowns in the second half. I wouldn't risk too many run-n-shoot style pass plays, though.

have we ever won in El Paso? Don't think so and they will be favored. Just that alone means we better play a great game and not take anything for granted.

Hmmm- really. Let's see IIRC both Baylor, A&M and TCU were favored. How did those games turn out?

SMU should have a defense that can shut down the UTEP offense.

Ha does it get tiring to keep thinking we will do well when we get butt [deleted] on national tv? Get over yourself dude. Get with reality and know that even best case scenario (9-3) means nothing to the outside world. Even then dream that we even hit 6-6. Sorry dude but you can't compliment crap, crap is crap. The only unit I feel sorry for getting lumped into this is the D. They deserve better and they deserve fans to be outrage by JJ and the WRs, i feel for them

JJ has had 5 yeas to get us BCS ready. He has failed and our 2013 class is looking like the worst recruiting class since his arrival. This team looks poorly coached on offense and the receivers are a mental disaster.

It is not necessarily fine just because we are past all the BCS teams if the team does not play well.

Now that SMU is past all the BCS team, our defense has a better chance of holding our opponents to less than 400 yards total offense

FIFY

The title of this thread is a quintessential example of loser-mentality. I'm not calling you a loser but boy, this idea sure is.
