I've said this before... I will roll with whatever punches come USM's way when it all settles and finishes. We were a "no-name team" who scared the hell out of whomever we played before, and I believe we will be so again.
(Hey Nebraska, you listening? Don't expect the next two games to be pushovers jsut because they're in Lincoln, because Coach "I don't give a s***" is NO LONGER here.)
My one (and really major) disappointment is that a lot of our long term rivalries (Memphis, Tulane, ECU) are no longer year-in/year-out. I felt the same way when L'ville left...
But you know what, unless our new coach (whomever he is) completely lets this team fall apart, I'm going to make myself more than happy to look forward to new "rivalries".
(Of course, I hope that means that my future EC donations are used CORRECTLY by the PTB.)
That includes La Tech, and if we move West, Tulsa, UTEP, Rice, UTSA, etc... and if we don't that means Marshall, UAB, the Mutts (yes, I'm borrowing that one from 76 (if it was 76 who threw it out there), Queens (yep Monarchs that's you :) ), the FU's, Charlotte, (I'm trying to avoid the "69'ers" for Charlotte.. that's just a little too childish.. but something will come up!! i swear!)
