Lets play a few games first and see where we are. We should all have a good feel after game 3.
And arizona is no world beater, they arent nearly as good as Marshall can be, utsa should beat them.

Quote:Come on Volk. Navy isn't close to the team that Marshall is. Marshall has a top 5 offense and top 25 defense (if not better). A schedule doesn't determine someones rank, its based on how good the team is or how good it is perceived to be.
I guess we only "know" when it benefits Marshall, but when it doesn't go Marshall's way it's because Miami (Oh) is better than we "knew".
Miami's QB is better than Carden, at least he throws a much better deep ball. He also throws a much better deep ball than Cato for that matter. You could tell why the kid was a 5 star recruit coming out of HS.
As off as Marshall was on Saturday they still scored more points than any other road team did that day. It's nice when you can play bad and still put up 42.
Back on topic, the conference is going to be a dog fight this year. I'm glad we have Middle and WKU at home.

Marshall last three games:
Rice at home
UAB on the road
WKU at home
Y'all last three games will not be a cakewalk at all.

Hi, Jan Brady. Good to see you haven't let go of your agenda...Marshall. Marshall. Marshall!
In response, it is a bit difficult to tell a team's potential from one game. Marshall may be overrated, but I am certain the great divide of talent between the AAC and CUSA is imaginary--existing only in the minds of the deluded.
Guys, I just was looking at the schedule and saw UTSA and Marshall don't play each other. Thus why I was saying why each should be rooting for each other. Marshall OOC schedule is very weak. UTSA has a shot to put up some good OOC wins. I was trying to compliment your teams. I would love to see either the CUSA, MAC or SB get the access slot. It does get a little tiring reading the AAC fans whining about the P5, saying there should be in the P5 and they a far superior to the other conferences.
Wish all your teams the best, well except ODU this weekend. Ga Southern should have won against my Pack this weekend, but I will take the W.

No one said they would be. We don't play great on the road and have never played well at UAB. Anything can happen. One week at a time.

Lol, what do you base that on?
My week 1 observations. along with media rankings and material, none of which have arizona ahead of marshall. I know what thi team can do, and it i encouraging when you can go on the road in game 1, play like ****, and leave scoring 42 points and a 15 point victory.

Speaking of, ESPN says the line for the UTSA/Zona game is currently Ariz -8 with an O/U of 56.5.
