Re: Week 5 Discussion

I don't think Mike Leach is going to win.

Just wanted to add this quote from the off-season by Dr.Death
Quote:
Don't know how I missed this thread, but I have some thoughts... some of you may disagree, some may love it... but whilst Leach was exiled from coaching thanks to CJK5H and the stupid "Old Boys Club" at Tech, he spent quite a bit of time visiting w/ the likes of Rex Ryan and even stated in his book - Swing Your Sword - that defense will be of far greater importance to him the next time around.

He's also added some wrinkles to his offense, so just when you think you know what he'll do, he'll surprise you.

My feeling this year is 8-9 wins. He was at Tech 10 years and they went to 10 straight bowl games. They'd only been to 23 in their entire history prior to Leach.

Those of you predicting 2 wins... I'm assuming you mean by week two, right? LOL 2 wins for the season? For a Mike Leach team? See you in January gentlemen...

Re: Week 5 Discussion

Why is Towson/LSU on ESPNU on Saturday night? Ridiculous.

Top 5 teams are pretty much guaranteed to have their game televised, regardless of opponent.

Alabama's and LSU's games last year against FCS opponents were merely on Gameplan/ESPN3.

I just don't understand why an obvious blowout in which LSU will pick-a-score has to be on national television in primetime. We could have a real quality game in that slot.

Uhm...which of those 7 PM games looks like quality to you?

Re: Week 5 Discussion

There really haven't been too much intriguing matchups, this year.

It may be just my imagination.
