Rice 44 USM 17

Post by SMU 86 »

Thank goodness for a weak CUSA this year. USM is just bad. Looks like we might go bowling.

We have to beat Rice at their place, they are a decent team and I am not sure we can beat them.

If we beat UCF, we should beat everyone guarantee except for maybe Tulsa. USM should be our fifth win. Rice, UCF, and Tulsa are toss ups and only one of them is at home

Rice also has an open date before our game, time to heal, rest, and prepare. Rice always plays us tough, especially down there.

speaking of USM - would this be the first time that a program won the conference and then finished winless the following year??

USM might not win a game this year. How bad is Ellis Johnson??

Fedora did not leave Southern Miss. because he feared that they would be bad this season. He left for more money and a higher profile program.

Southern Miss's ineptitude has nothing to do with the talent of their athletes. Were Fedora still coaching there, their record would be very different.

Ellis may have really screwed up leaving SC
