so i just saw UTEP is 5-1. i dont know how i missed this other than its UTEP and they are typically an after thought.
but thats 1 win from bowl eligible.
next couple are average teams with La Tech and FAU both winnable. then a tough one with UTSA but after that UNT and Rice.
could UTEP finish with 9 wins?

CHOO CHOO MUTHAFUCKAS
 
Dave Warner is their OC and they are putting up points?!?!???

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT!?!?!!???!!
 
And Dana Dimel should win coach of the year for the country if they become bowl eligible.
 
Problem for them will be UTSA, who are steamrolling everyone. Not bad for what is basically a new program. Won't keep UTEP from bowl eligibility, but UTSA has been pretty impressive.
 
1 of their best years in as long as I can remember.

Think they won 8 games 2 years in a Row back when they had Jordan Palmer (04/05 maybe?) thats the best I can ever remember them doing.

Not a chance. We ain't runnin' up a 9 win type flag yet. If we get 9 then some of those teams aint too swift.

Our wins have come against an 0-5 FCS team, NMSU, UNM, Old Dominion and Southern Miss. Those other four have something like 6 wins total among them. But, we've been losing to such teams so it is great we are now beating at least the bottom dwellers.

The bad loss to Boise State was really more promising than the wins. We were in it until turnovers hit and the defense decided to go absolutely brain dead right before half. Score ended up worse than it was.

What I like it is looks like these guys play hard and are hard nosed with a little bit of nastiness in 'em. They ain't real athletic but they'll give good effort. Our play calling is too predictable IMHO. Run, run, throw on 3rd down. And secondary is questionable. Loose zone with receivers running around in open space too frequently. Me thinks they are doing so to cover up some deficiencies there.

Overall I'm happy as hell. :beer2:

We ain't puttin' up many and the play calling of run, run pass on 3rd down is predictable as hell. But, we've got five wins so I'll take it.

well i mean NMSU is 1-6 and UNM is 2-4. ODU and So Miss are both 1-5 but la Tech is only 2-3 and FAU 3-3 so like i said winnable.
rice 2-3. N Teas 1-4
UTSA is 6-0 and UAB 4-2 but upsets happen.

Yep. He's got three now. Run, run, throw. That may be Dimmel though. He wants to shorten games.

Oh, that was his offense at Michigan State but even then. Dantonio might have wanted to shorten his dreadfully ugly games.

UTSA and UAB "should be" the only real tough ones. The others are probably toss ups.

We get UTSA in the Sun Bowl but that isn't that big of a deal with them because they are full of Texas kids. Those teams that come from the East of C-USA don't know what to think when they look out over the West stands of the Sun Bowl and see Interstate 10, the Rio Grand and Juarez in less than 1/2 mile!

Mark of an improving program is beating those teams instead of being one of those teams.

At least that's what Confucius says...

I'll give 'em credit. They've been building depth. It ain't 4*-5* depth but the drop off from starters isn't near as bad as it has been.
 
They made my Top 25 this week.
