The oddsmakers are right wayyyyyy more often than they are wrong.  There is a reason we are 3 TD underdogs.  It's not because the odds makers are stupid.

Here is an article to actually educate yourself instead of listening to misinformed opinions.

You realize this is a message board for college football right?  I'm not trying to sell you patio furniture or get you to recognize me for a promotion.  I couldn't care less if you "liked" my profile on this message board.

Frankly, your ever chaning name and tone on this forum sucks.  But guess why I dont really care…its a chat forum.  Yep, a chat forum.

The opinions on lines not being a prediction of the results on the game is just wrong.  Why not come out with FAU giving Navy 21 points?  Because the people that set the odds for a living…think 21 is the number of points we will lose by.  And if you bet against them 100 times…you would lose more often than you win.  Promise.

Now, would you like me to structure this as a feel, felt and found statement so you and Dusky feel good about my post?  You've got it sport.

I empathize with your perception, based on a lot of data and studies I feel differently.  Can I show you some articles that may change your mind sir?  If you would be so kind.  Thank you.

👍🏻

Saw that as well, you know what they say.  At least he keeps us in the news, I would say more people have heard about FAU in the last 6 months than all combined since 2001.

GO OWLS!

Agreed!!! IF he plans on building a Boise St. EAST type of program and staying a while, he is doing it the right way so far. Great recruiting, Great Coaching hires, TONS of free Pub., and making this program NATIONALLY RELEVANT!

I think he sees the writing on the wall on depending on the "South Florida hotbed" of recruiting angle that is failing at FAU, FIU and yes, even the U. These kids "mostly" want to move away from Mom and Dad and local influences and troubles and the majors and mid majors are offering them that opportunity to. At least so far, we start winning 10 games and Bowl games then it might change, might not. So THESE coaches are using their NATIONAL contacts to pull in higher ranked recruits (yes, mostly JUCOS so far). But talent we have NEVER had here before.

Now for the on the field part in 90+ days!!!! I am so praying the do that part well too!!!!! Go Owls!!!!!!!

I am little confused how UTEP is left to be ranked. They were awful last year, and lost their best player.

Am I missing something?
