Hey Turd... Here I am... and I called it.

Done with the Jim

"Who let the UCF grad get ahold of the label maker?

Did anyone notice the "Offence" placed on the phone?"

Probably someone who was educated in Canada or Great Britian...I belive Americans are the only ones who spell it with "se" rather than "ce".

USFshould be 1-AA

Reality,

The reality of it is that UCF students have higher SAT scores and GPAs. So I'm guessing a USF student or you mom made that label. Just sayin>>>>>>>

BTW. I'm a UF grad(not UCF,just thought you need some accurate info). You know- national champs, ranked #1, that little school that you like to mention on arrogant billboards

NYC BULL

Playing great against a competitive and motivated opponent. If you're negative towards our coach... you're a Junior or younger... aren't you.

Your Old Fashion West Virginia Hick.

He Is A Great Coach, It's Probably Just The Players. Everyone Says Hes A Great Guy, And A Good Coach. You Guys Should Be Happy That Big East Opponents Like Us Are Giving You Guys Credit. Maybe Better Recruits Would Help In The Long Run...

Turd Ferguson

Leavitt Is A GREAT Coach, But You Guys Are Going Down Hill. At Least Some Of You Realize It...

Yeah...all fans of our Big East opponents love Leavitt. He gives their teams a great chance to win.

So you admit we're "going downhill," and yet you say he's a great coach??

Again, I guess the fact that we're going downhill is what makes you say he's a great coach.

Your Old Fashion West Virginia Hick.

Yeah, Mountees Come Up BIG Tonight. Nothin Against You Guys, Leavitt Is A GREAT Coach, But You Guys Are Going Down Hill. At Least Some Of You Realize It...

Turd Ferguson

Turd, do you ever go to games? Just curious.

I do indeed, Jupiter. Turdville, USA is a long way from Tampa, as you well know, so home games are few and far between for me.

I make it to at least one road game every season (sometimes more), and I go to the bowl games as long as they aren't in St. Pete. So in other words, it looks like I won't be going to the bowl game again this year.

BJ running the ball will get the Bulls nowhere! BJ needs to be able to move the ball through the air, been saying it since day one!

David Weber

I'm taking us to win it. WVU's weaknesses play to our strengths- they turn it over, don't have a massive o-line, and as great as Devine is, we can handle him. My confidence in BJ is shaken, for sure, but I think he'll be able to run well enough to win. WVU does seem to be a little less disciplined than Pitt and Cincy though, so our idiotic penalties won't matter quite as much.

Essentially, I'm saying that Pitt is the type of power-running and safe, efficient passing team that can beat us, especially given that they have two very dangerous playmakers in Baldwin and Dickerson. WVU is the opposite as far as playing it safe with the ball, and Jock Sanders is their best receiver. He's good, but not certainly not Baldwin-esque.

Tavon Austin, WVU's kick returner, could break one though. If we can't contain him, then we lose for sure.

USF 21, WVU 17.

Ken

We haven't even been talking lately about what happens if it comes down to our needing a FG to win. I think we'll be improved, but lose a relatively close game, say 21-14.

BULL-iever

I'm pickin WV unfortunately. There's just no reason to believe that there will be any change from the PITT game. CJL has pretty much told us that. All the coaches have said that things need to change and that they need to get better; yet have also said that they believe the right guys are in there and that their schemes are right. *sigh* The offense has been lucky to score 17 and 14 in consecutive weeks. I'd love to throw a 27-24 USF score out there...but the reality is that it will probably be like 27-14 WV. (I hope I eat my words, and the necessary changes and adjustments are made.) Go BULLS!

USFShep

You gotta bullieve...Bulls win 27 to 24. Three losses in a row with the 3rd one coming at home after the way they played last week? These kids must have some fight in them! I think they will pull this one out against WVU.

Martin

Too bad it's a night game, it's been unseasonably warm over the past week - might have helped wear down the visitors. In any case, forecast of 80F with 74% humidity at kick-off.

Jupiter Bull

Turd, do you ever go to games? Just curious.

Chalko

I like USF in this game. However, with they way they have been playing, I can't take them. I think it's close, WVU 27 USF 20.

Turd Ferguson

31-17, WVU

I'll be here to take my lumps if I'm wrong.

Jupiter Bull

Turd, what's your prediction?

I worry Devine & Brown make WVU's O too balanced. I see it WVU 34-24.

If we hit early & often, and get pressure on Brown, we can win, 24-20.

Other predictions?

Turd Ferguson

Bulls win. Calling it.

STOP THE PRESSES!!

Will you be around if, perchance, this assurance of yours does not materialize?

Richard Todd

I will be there cheering my Bulls on.

Jupiter Bull

I'll be in the upper deck, courtesty of my co-worker's booster bud. Got an extra ticket, since my step-daughter isn't coming, so hopefully I can dump it at the game. GO BULLS!

Stuff Devine, hit/pressure Brown. DBs need to be able to cover long enough before we get to Brown.

Offensive line needs to set the tone by pushing the WVU line early. We need a down hill game to open up options...and MITIGATE THE PENALTIES. They sap drives & emotion.

Time for our leaders to step up: Selvie's been frustrated, and is hungry to get back to his old form. JPP should light a fire, and Kion needs to stuff the middle. BJ has a chance to make another positive statement...

Tampa Tad

Will be at the game....... Not optimistic hopefully I will be pleasantly surprised.

David Weber

I'm watching at my buddy's place- he's WVU all the way, right down to the beard.
