La-la wins in Miami. Shocking.

Mean Green 93-98 · September 25, 2011

I heard them say that Wes Carroll was out this game. I know T.Y. was knocked out of the last game--even if he played, he may not have been 100%. Those are kind of big pieces in FIU's offense to take out.

There goes SBC chance of getting a ranked team this season.

Green Mean · September 25, 2011

They could still get top 25 in the final rankings if they finish 10-2 or 11-1 plus win their bowl game.

So this SBC race is wide open?

Ugh. Worst thing that could happen to the Sunbelt this weekend. Oh well. All we can control is us!

Travis Scott · September 25, 2011

if we play like we played for 3 quarters tonight in the rest of the belt games, we stand to do well. obviously we need to play well for 4 quarters.

Won't be their last loss in conference this year.

And FIU losing is a good thing for UNT.

No way in hell this was remotely bad.

Let's go win this damn thing, shall we?

Worst thing that could happen to the Sunbelt this weekend.

I was thinking the same thing. But it's weird for a UNT fan to hope for FIU not to lose any of its conference games. We could still catch them.

untbowler · September 25, 2011

teams are vulnerable, Troy barely beat MTSU last night.

Like said earlier, if this team can actually play 4Q we should right in the race for the top. Wish we could have the FIU game back.

UNTLifer · September 25, 2011

Wish the FIU game didn't start the season. This conference is staying true to form with a wide open race. La-la might surprise a few more teams, Troy's defense isn't that good and ASU put up big numbers on a D1AA/FCS team.

Good to see them lose. I could care less if they go undefeated. I want to see my team fight and win the Belt this year.

greenminer · September 25, 2011

I wonder if 4 - 5 Belt teams beating AQ teams regularly would benefit us (Belt) more right now than hoping 1 team gets ranked while the rest tank OOC.

CaribbeanGreen · September 25, 2011

Did Boise's amazing run help the WAC? Did TCU's help the Mountain West?..... or did both of those teams bail for greener pastures as fast as they could, leaving the same middling/dying non-AQ conference behind?

Greenminer is right. Having half of the league consistently beating AQs is far better for the league as a whole than one team MAYBE getting ranked. And what's better than BOTH of those things?!? US winning the league, or having a chance to. FIU's loss puts our destiny back in our hands... and that's all that matters. Will it happen this year? Odds are stacked against it, sure... but odds were even MORE stacked against in in 2001. As long as we have a chance, I'll root for anything that helps us get there.
