Title: BYU losing was big for us. Gotta be a Gator this week. Post by: 10EC on November 17, 2024, 03:31:44 EST I hate needing help, but there is still football to be played.
Need Longhorns to beat A&M Title: Re: BYU losing was big for us. Gotta be a Gator this week. Post by: Black Diamond Vol on November 17, 2024, 04:31:33 EST I guess A&M beating ut would be marginally better for us, but I see that as an elimination game. If ut loses that one, they will have zero quality wins (and honestly, I'm not sure how much of a "quality" win A&M would be, either). Despite their lofty ranking, I have to think ut is out if they lose that one. They're basically the name-brand version of Indiana. If they hadn't started with a higher preseason ranking, we'd be talking about them being on the bubble right now.
And speaking of Indiana, we really need the nutz to smack them around next week, too. Title: Re: BYU losing was big for us. Gotta be a Gator this week.

I guess, bottom line... I don't think we are necessarily out. IF, they take 4 SEC schools. Title: Re: BYU losing was big for us. Gotta be a Gator this week.

We need to male sure we beat vandy, the rest will take care of itself. |
