Rice Fan thinks ECU and Marshall would crush UNT

"(Rant from Rice fan)...UNT did not snap the ball past 40-yd line the entire game but beat Rice and Rice dominated stat sheet. Against common opponents..Rice has won by more margin. But all that matters is UNT won... I think UNT would lose 8 out of 10 times to Rice on neutral field but that is an academic/esoteric debate and irrelevant. We showed-up last night against La Tech and plenty of other times this season but did not show-up when it mattered in Denton. Marshall and ECU fans should be happy...they both will crush UNT."

Honestly, I don't disagree with alot of what he says, other that we would lose to Rice 8 of 10 times on a neutral field, I think he is way off on that. I guess that is a compliment to our home field advantage?

On ECU, I don't think he is far off, depending the interpretation of crush. I think we would be a 14 point underdog their, maybe around 10 points at home. I think we would have to be perfect to win, while they would just have to be good. Marshall is closer, but I think at home we would be underdog by 6 or so.

I dont think ECU would get 10 points at Apogee. Maybe 3. Anything over 7 would be a 'bet 'til your hands bleed' no-brainer.
