    Houston is in the top 50, so there is that to look forward too. Cougars gonna do it. Allen and a top 10 defense. Look out.

    I actually just posted about it in the UT thread lol. Charlie Strong is not a good coach. Some of the stuff that happened at UT with him at the helm were confounding.

    Let's look at South Florida's early struggles:
    Poor start [​IMG]
    Sluggish offense [​IMG]
    Bad special teams [​IMG]
    Playing down to opponent [​IMG]

    Charlie Strong's head coaching career without Teddy Bridgewater is pathetic. I think everyone will see that clearly in short order.

    Scary start for Urban and company last night after last season's ending but got the ball rolling the 2nd half. Dobbins was a big time recruit and we saw why, kid is electric.

    OSU's offense looks strong as always and depending on how OU responds to Riley, think they are favorites to win the Big 12.

    Looks like Michigan's season will again be derailed by poor QB play. Two pick-6s in 90 seconds.

    Western Michigan kept it close with USC til midway in the 4th quarter but USC pulling away late.

    Liberty & Baylor tied at half, 17-17.
