UTEPs biggest problem is TOs. They turn it over on 20% of their possessions. Plus they have away games at ODU and USM so it will be tough. I think they lose 3 more games. Want to see them vs La. Tech MTSU has problems with FT, giving up 3's and putting people on the line way to much. I think UNT has a decent shot against them. Like a 55% chance of winning.

Power Rankings: 1. Southern Miss (16-3) Next Games Up: 1/23 @ ODU, 1/25 @ ECU 2. Louisiana Tech (15-4) Next Games Up: 1/23 Charlotte, 1/25 @ Marshall 3. Charlotte (12-5) Next Games Up: 1/23 @ La. Tech, 1/25 @ Rice See the complete rankings here: MGN Power Ranking for CUSA Basketball

Joe Schad and Bruce Feldman reporting that he will take the La. Tech DC job. I guess if we find a running QB we should be all good.

Akina is most likely going to end up at Cal. He is a good DB coach, but I feel pretty damn good about the one we have.

I'd give them the slight edge over us. 1. We dont play well at home 2. They are going to win on the offensive glass and get easy put backs 3. Their defense is slightly better than our offense We can win if: 1. We take care of the ball. UAB is not great at turning people over 2. We win the REB battle 3. Get to the foul line. UAB is one of the best in the country at not putting people on the line. UNT needs to attack and quit with the passive stuff.

He interviews on Tuesday.

I was just told Mike Canles will interview Tuesday for the job.

I've got an extensive playbook from NCAA 14. I'd have this offense humming a fine tune as we marched all over our opponents. Just saying as a fall back option if Coach Chico sets off for greener pastures. 300 yards per game rushing 275 yards per game passing

Doesnt fit Mac's style, but would be worth the interview

Perhaps we promote from within? Quartaro wouldn't be a bad option. Still would leave an opening at QB Coach. Also would come at a time when we need good development at that position. Major Applewhite is without a job

Not saying your line of thought doesn't work because it does. I love to watch teams like Stanford and Michigan St play old school football. What I'm saying that college football now days is all about offense.Yes you need a good defense, but you better be able to put up a good amount of points too. Big XII Champ- runs a spread 52ppg on O, 23 ppg on D SEC Champ- runs a spread 39ppg on O, 25 ppg on D ACC Champ- runs a spread 52ppg on O, 12 ppg on D MWC Champ- runs a spread 43ppg on O, 30 ppg on D MAC Champ- runs a spread 35ppg on O, 16 ppg on D AAC Champ- runs a spread 35ppg on O, 21 ppg on D CUSA Champ- runs a spread 30ppg on O, 24 ppg on D Sun Belt Champ- runs a spread 34ppg on O, 27 ppg on D So you wouldnt call Auburns coach an offensive genius? Cause his offense just dominated the most feared defensive conference? With his WR's blocking. How did that happen? How did such a team like Alabama get run over in back to back games by teams with a spread offense? You've got to be good at both now days. Spread offenses work and they win championships too. Its just modern football. Get used to it.

Gus coached and recruited a lot of those guys on that team. Plus he is an offensive genius. You can turn things around quicker at a program if you can charge up the offense. You need some d to win a NC, but offenses rule college football now a days.

It's also not realistic to expect him to correct all their recent failures in one year. They have a lot of questions. Just bc the defense gets better doesn't equate to them being NC contenders. Ya he is good coach. Nobody here is denying that, but your kinda crazy to think NC in year one. He doesn't have his players. He has Mack's. Did Jimbo go to an NC right away after Bobby left. How long did it take Saban? A defensive mastermind. How did an offensive genius like Gus Malzan make it to the NC in year one if defenses always win championships. Auburn wasn't great on D yet the win in the best defensive conference in CF. All I'm saying is its going to take more than just one year. The way your talking UT is going to shut out everyone so no need for offense right?

I'm telling you that you might want to rethink that statement. There are plenty of other teams who are a lot better. Plus they are no better than a 3 or 4 loss team. BYU, UCLA, Baylor, OU, K ST. You think they will beat all those teams? Your crazy. No way you beat all those teams without a great QB and they don't even have a good one. They maybe starting a true freshman at that position. If defense wins championships what happened to FL? Ranked 8th in total d finished 4-8. You better have a good offense if you want a 9 or 10 win season. You better have a great offense if want to compete for a NC.

No you were right he is a FB. Listed as FB on their depth chart

This is what happens when you hire a well respected and well connected coach. He has been able to make solid hire after solid hire. He doesn't have to beat around the bush either I bet. Probably called Kevin up and said "Kevin I got a coaching position open you in or out?" Done. Hopefully he can close the deal with Mr. Washington. Glad this got done so quickly to.

We can expect to see a strong run game emphasis. Their OL coach is the OC

I dont think they knew he was leaving. I think they thought he just wasnt going to be the QB anytime soon. Plus you never pass up the chance to get better. By bringing in Greer the QB position got better and thus UNT got better.

There really no reason for him to stay IMO.

Whatever they feel they need to do to be more competitive against us let em do it. Wondering how many kids will jump ship and transfer out.

Larry Johnson from Penn st is headed to Ohio st. So you'll have to come up with a new dream

Boy who ever they bring in next year has their work cut out for them.

My initial thinking is this could be Nick Quartaro. Possibly to work under his old pal Mark Mangino at Iowa St.

I roll on Heisman with the CPU levels bumped all the way up. Im about to play for my 5th NC in a row. Average about 80 plays a game got to get in that hurry up
