Rice played Tulsa close because Tulsa's starting QB was out.

Regardless of history, if we fear Rice we should not be considering bowl options.

Even I have to agree with that.

yes - It is what it is - they are decent at home and we typically don't play well there. If we can lose to Tulane, we sure as hell can lose to Rice.

We could win all the rest or lose all the rest . . . but if our offense played like it has the last 2 games no one in this conference will beat us . . . I like Tulsa at home but we HAVE to beat USM and Rice. Those are all must wins to get to any bowl much less the championship game.

I say we win out and win CUSA.

Correct, this next weekend game will indicate how we will compete the last 4 games because it will be 1-3 or 4-0.

This is SMU. Every game is a tough game no matter who we play.

So Miss would like nothing more than to ruin someone else's season and I don't think we've beaten them yet since we've been in CUSA

We barely beat them last year in Ford, and have only won down there once in 25 years :!:
May the forth be with us.

last game against Rice for a very long time? With us going to the BE, they might have some extra motivation to beat us too. If we sleepwalk, we will lose, if we come to play we win.

PLEASE don't say that, do you remember Tulane? Ok, so we'll never forget the Tulane game, but at times this year we could be beaten by anyone. So, all 4 games need to be handle one game at a time, PLEASE!

We should fear no team.
