We get blown out (fact) by a better-than-advertised (maybe) FIU team on the road to open the season. We now have 10 days to prepare for home opener in a brand new stadium (fact) before a sell out crowd (maybe). UH beats UCLA (maybe) and the hype machine begins (certainly). UH is a 24 point favorite (maybe) in Denton.

And then, my friends...then comes September 10th, and we bear witness to the greatest (debatable) upset in Mean Green history.

Later, FIU goes undefeated on the season (maybe). People everywhere are like "well, you know, the Sun Belt maybe isn't that terrible." McCarney continues to recruit his guys. The players learn from this experience (probably), buy into the system (totally). 2014 comes and we beat SMU (who is still not in an AQ conference) by 51 points (or so).

It's all part of the master plan. This was the first step. Patience.

Oooooh so we lost on purpose? That's a new one.

I like the way you think.
