I'm starting to think you've got a "secret" favorite team...

When I can find Troy on a map then maybe I'll root for them.

I guess that says a lot for your USA education that you can't find a city, in your state, on a map...

But, don't worry...you'll soon know where it is, because someone from down there will take you up there and you'll see those jags get torn out the frame and you'll never forget where it is again...

Lol. At least my USA education allows me the mental capacity to detect sarcasm.

nuh uh...it's not ironic or sarcastic...it's the truth. Now, that's what my TROY education shows...and I didn't even have to go to merriam-webster for that one...

I know some will say Auburn. but I say @ Navy for us. Auburn is a top rated SEC team we're not supposed to compete there. but Navy is a mid major and we should be expected to compete. However they run that convoluted wishbone offense that we've never seen anything similar too.

Im worried theyll run up tons of yards on our defense and we'll get run out the door with our offense rarely touching the ball

Auburn is a middle of the pack SEC team at best. Alabama, Arkansas, LSU, Florida, and Georgia will all probably finish better than Auburn.

I have Auburn finishing tied with Arkansas just behind Bama in the West. I have LSU 4th in the west. and I think the East will be down this year. I potentially see Auburn as a top 4 SEC team. They have a ton of talent down there, and I know what Gus Malzhan can do with offensive talent

Don't know if we "fear" them, but UC-Davis is probably our toughest opponent this year, but then in '11 North Carolina State most definitely will be.

Texas Tech's gonna be pissed that you're stealing future OOC opponents from them.

On a more serious note, I'm a bit surprised they haven't tried to schedule y'all yet.

Fear may not be the right word, but Clemson will be UNT's toughest opponent.

RICE

For so many reasons. Nobody will expect us to beat Clemson. Rice is a winnable game. Will be a good measuring stick on where we are as a program. Got our ass kicked last time we saw them. Should set the tone for the rest of the season. A win could bring out more fans for the next home game. If we start 0 - 2 , people will be calling for Dodge's head & the kids will lose all confidence !!
