    Roberson and TJ McDaniel are done for the season. Roberson was leading the country in receiving yards

      Doubleheader for Friday.

      SMU at Tulane at 6:00. BYU at Houston directly after that

        Turnovers held us back significantly in that game. It has been stated repeatedly that we expect Ridder to have much better production than he actually has. He doesn't appear to be injured and the O-line is vastly improved. I hope it is just part of the learning curve to get timing down with so many new receivers. I wouldn't mind seeing what Ben can do in a series or two.

        Speaking of QB - did Prater officially redshirt this season or is he using a year of eligibility?
        Red and Black are more of an Attitude than merely a color combination.

        Intimidate! Dominate! Celebrate!

          If Fickell uses him in fewer than 5 games, he’ll be a redshirt. However, in his sole appearance vs APSU, it was apparent that he’s not physically ready yet. He needs more time to hit the weights. His upper body, particularly his arms, need work. He’s a bit thin.

            I don't think this year will count towards eligibility no matter how many games you play. I could be wrong but I recall Dan Hoard saying so on the radio during a game earlier this year.

              This is correct. Everybody basically gets an effective redshirt year this year if they want one.

                SMU had their hands full with Tulane last night. the final was 37-34 in OT. I think it's obvious that we can run on SMU's defense next week if the game gets played.

                Houston came back from 14-3 down to lead 26-21 and then got shellacked in the 4th quarter by BYU final was 43-26

                  Here's the whole Saturday scoreboard. Looks like the prime game is going to UCF at Memphis at 3:30

                    The BYU win was not a good development. They are the prime threats to earn the G5 NY6 spot over the AAC winner.

                      BYU has not beaten anybody who is that good. Lots of low tier D1 teams. Their QB is special though. Wish we had a guy who could throw like that!

                        True, the schedule is weak, but they’re ranked #14. Perhaps the committee will view them differently.

                          UCF just coughed up a two TD lead over Memphis in the 4th quarter, made a great play on a Tigers’ 2-point try to keep the UM lead to 50-49, then missed a makeable FG at the end to lose. The Knights now have two AAC losses. The Tigers are 1-1.

                            Damonte Coxie at Memphis has opted out for the season. He will stay in school, get his degree and go pro.

                                I'm late to post this but UCF's stadium lost it's corporate sponsor (Spectrum) and is now literally Bounce House Stadium.
