You're right. I went back and just noticed that I missed that.

That's where you're wrong. I'm actually not looking for any way to disagree. There are two main things I've disagreed with some on, one being that one or two teams dominating a conference is better for the conference than having several strong programs, and the other being the schedule difficulty. WEARE already made some good points on the schedule issue, which I acknowledged in my reply (and I didn't disagree either). Upon my reply to him, I considered that issue over.
I think I accidentally skimmed over part your message because the last three of your paragraphs started out this way...
"We have a problem of Kentucky flat out refusing to play"...
"We are scheduling 1-for-1's now"...
"Besides...we're scheduling to win the conference"...
Mind you, aside from the things around the house that I was doing, I was tired of reading by that time, and tired of responding, and basically skimmed the first sentence of those three paragraphs to see if they might contain something that wasn't already talked about in the many previous messages. They all started with statements about scheduling, so I honestly didn't even bother to read the rest, thinking it would just be more of the same stuff I've already gone 'round and 'round on with a couple others, and which WEARE had already given me a satisfactory answer to. So, my apologies for that, but rest assured, I'm not here to argue for the sake of arguing. Life's too short for nonsense.

Marshall went 20 years without a losing season, made a bad hire and 10 years later, is just getting back to winning consistently. Hopefully.
I do like the folks who doubt our defense, though. MTSU and Rice were the only two that did anything significant against it. If you saw just those two games, I understand. But if you saw the other games, you might have a different take. There's going to be a bad game or two every year defensively. Hopefully, we make the bad games be allowing under 25 points instead of 35-40+.
That said... It's nice to be talking football again. Here's to a great 2014.
Appreciate it, and good luck to you guys also, even though I still hope Rice beats you...lol. And yeah, trust me, I know very well about how a team can have a bad game, or quarter for that matter. In closing, as I told WEARE, I hope it'll be a great year for C-USA!
