    Bowl games are already tough enough to predict, what with all of the time off, but they become close to impossible to predict when you are dealing with interim coach situations, which both of these teams have.

    Im going to Fort Worth for the game. Hopefully this isnt Gibb's last game at UH. In order to beat Pitt we need to stop James Connor. Dude is a freaking beast at RB. If we can force Pitt to turn over the ball then I love our chances. Sucks that it's going to be terrible weather.

    Is that with mini-Ditka or regular-Ditka acting as interim head coach?

    Hopefully Greenberry can have a monster game in his final game as a Coog.

    Kickers slipping seems to be a trend this year.

    Same old disappointing Cougars show up again. I can't wait for this season to end.

    During the whole first half, I kept wondering how this team won seven games.

    Can't watch, but is the offense as bad as the box score looks?

    Yes. It's pretty unwatchable.

    The front 7 is really the only thing that has impressed me for the Cougars. Secondary is shaky, Ward is just not big enough to be a QB, and overall the team is undisciplined.

    Nothing new, but it feels like UH is constantly running the Wildcat because Ward is more of a RB than a QB.

    This score makes being left out of the championship playoff more digestable. but we will likely take this in the 4th Q.
