No we've never been 1-12 and Nebraska is favored. Please shut up

They went 1-11, and we lost to a 1-11 team last year. You really think 4-8 is that different? I am not gonna shut up because you want to think your 4-8 team is so much cooler than a 1-11 team.  Have fun with your delusions, we may easily lose to them.

Torres went to Incarnate Word, not UTSA.

 

Whoops, my mistake ....... well the same city.

 

I never heard of IW until recently.

 

I was stationed at Lackland AFB in San Antonio (boot camp)

I have high hopes for this team going into the season. That being said, I wouldn't be too surprised if we are 2-4 after the first 6 games.

If we're 4-0 after six games something is fishy....

I shouldn’t post while I’m at work. Takes too many of my brain cells….

Understandable, they're a minor program with stadium smaller than most SA high schools have. Long way to fall from P5.

We have a better roster than they do and a better head coach.

Because of the Frost Factor.

When he talked about the Nebraska way, getting alumni involved, be physical etc...Not defending Frost at all.  Glad he's gone.  Sad it took so long.   Rhule has proven be be a pro thus far.

 

I think there’s a gigantic and obvious difference in how the two guys conducted themselves on the job, and the comparison has no merit at all.  Just based on "saying the right things", Frost would nervously stammer while struggling to string together a coherent sentence.  Rhule is a confident, fast-talkin' son of a preacher man. Not saying that translates to wins, but how both guys carry themselves couldn't be more different.

Everyone relax and have some optimism!!

We go 9-3 next year!! Bill Busch said so. He can’t possibly be wrong though. You know how I know?? 
The Solich curse has officially been lifted!! We will be in the Natty year 2.

Yup those teams never had confidence how many one score games did they lose? Already a different culture now hell even with Mickey they closed out games Frost would have blown. The roster at the moment isnt good enough on the lines to be a top tier team in the B1G but it sure as hell is better than Colorados.
