    As far as a punt prediction, I think I'm gonna agree with 2. I think our starters are gonna struggle to click on their opening drive and be forced to punt. Then our 3rd stringers in the 4th quarter will have to punt again.

    Conference play starts next week. This win over GSU should give us good momentum going into the UTEP game.

    Right here. Our starting QB separated his shoulder against SMU three weeks ago, which makes it tough for us, but even with Lamaison I doubt we could win. I hate to say it, but the Coogs are gonna stomp us...

    Utep seems to always play us tough. Should be a good one!

    Yeah, playing at the Sun Bowl is never easy for us for some reason.

    We're ranked 26-27 in the polls, a win Thursday and we're sitting in the Top 25 with ECU coming to town. Would love to see that happen.

    Me too, it would be pretty cool to have another nationally ranked team in the state.

    There's no ranking past 25. UH is unranked. Win on Thurs. and hope
    for some upsets and then we'll be ranked.

    We're #1 and #2 respectively in teams receiving the most votes outside of the top 25... saying "26" is a just an easier, informal, more convenient way of saying that. So, uh, I guess if you want to be an overly pedantic tool about it. Sure, we're unranked.

    No, being a tool is saying you're team is "ranked" when they're not. It's Top 25. Not Top 26. Don't make up your own poll.

    U of H is a poor man's Boise st. Flashy but lacks good wins because it's schedule is easy. It is going to be hard for them to climb polls when there known for blowing games against the UTEP's and Tulsa's of the world.
