Thinking about the current (non-Mean Green) American torchbearers right now. Random thoughts:
MEMPHIS is clearly the media darling. I hate rooting for them, but this conference desperately needs more respect and the only way to get that is to win these OOC games.
WICHITA STATE is rockin'! Not many brand name wins, but the BB enthusiast will see some solid wins on their resume. Minnesota is on deck soon, for those that like to look at common opponents. Also ETSU, which is clobbering Charlotte right now. They should wallop Alcorn State.
ECU and RICE. Not sure what to think about these stellar records. Me personally, I love the game but I don't love it to the point of being familiar with all 300+ programs. I know very little about their opponents.
PS: I don't know if the American has had this many 1 or 0-loss teams (5) this far into November. Seems like it would be a good thing, right?
It is not a matter of rooting. Rooting for this team as currently constructed is a waste of positive energy. Let me know when Charlie Brown kicks the winning field goal when Lucy is holding.....
They were late to come over at the end of the National Anthem. By the time they were approaching the stadium the band was in the middle of the Alma Mater so they turned in what looked at first to be a delay loop just like the helicopters a few weeks before. Once they turned the air boss walked down from his observation post on top of the wing (top left as you are looking at it from the field). They flew home. Bad timing by someone aborted the mission.
