We were able to build a healthy "we hate you guys!" rivals in the WAC, especially with Fresno State, Hawaii, and Nevada. Most of it generated from fans' message boards initially. The fan rivalry got the most heated, yet respectful and fun, with Hawaii fans. The pineapple vs. pine cone rivalry!

CUSA needs these rivalries.

Go Dawgs...smack everyone! (especially UAB ;^) )

I miss those days. The smack talk back in the WAC generated some heat but everyone respected each other.

Your QB will be fine as long as he can feed the ball to Marcus Williams Jr.

That kid is going to run wild this year.

Can you believe Marcus Williams Jr. was just named to the preseason All CUSA team? I don't think I've ever heard of that before with a brand new player. They are obviously making a lot of assumptions.

There are usually a lot of expectations when you transfer down like this. The good news is that if you have a semi-competent Oline, he will live up to them.

You mean transfer up! I'm not sure he can play at this level yet. After all, he is transferring from a Southland Conference....oh wait, a Sunbelt school.

personally liked your 1st draft better. In all seriousness, without a competent Oline i'm not sure MW can reach his full potential. Its not like he was languishing on the bench at App, many consider him the best pure back. But i don't think hes the kind of back that transcends a bad oline. Hes very patient and reads the gaps, and has a good burst. In the right scheme, he absolutely gashes G5 defenses.

2021 you have to use your googily eyes to zoom in on the graphic.

He'll get his chance. Expectations are pretty high for him.

Tech is getting fitted for another Bridesmaids dress? Some things never change...

Just teasing guys. You all have a great athletic department. And congrats on the walk-off homer last night!
