American Rising on ESPN2: Memphis vs Houston Thread

[Tenspro2002]

Not so fast my friend!

You're welcome, Houston. Trap game here we come!

 

[Chin Diesel]

Well, we got our night game!

#FILLTHERENT

All the makings of an eclectic night.

I hate that the game ended on a missed field goal, but omg that was one the best games I've watched this season.

Eclectic? Or Electric? Hahaha

I might have my sobriety checked by a few Yarders, but I think that either of these teams would have beaten Clemson TODAY.

Both.

Wow. What a game! Postma was awesome in relief. Would rather face Greg Ward next week. Crazy good watching. The AAC has been fun to watch this year. And USF crushing Temple? Wow!

I kinda agree. Clemson has been struggling with better defenses and their offense has been pretty pedestrian since that blow out of Miami. I think they're starting to miss Chad Morris

What's Houston CFP ranking coming up? My guess 17/18?

That's a good question. #9 LSU, #10 Stanford, #17 Miss St all lost so there should be shifting. Navy likely shifts up to 17/18 range. I'd say Houston goes from 24 to right behind Navy. Both Navy and Houston (and Memphis for that matter) looked better today than any of the ranked losers and ranked winners like TCU and Northwestern. It's getting increasingly difficult to justify some of these rankings, especially a 2-loss team, to be ahead of either Navy or Houston.

One other thing: remember all the gooing and gah-ing that Oregon got after they lost at Michigan St? "They should be rewarded for playing so well in a road game, not penalized." I hope the same judgment is applied to Memphis. There is no way Memphis is not a Top 25 team in 2015. None. They should not be penalized too harshly for the loss tonight.

Too bad they most likely will, more so because of back to back losses even if they were to 2 ranked teams (P5 bias).
Side note, what happened to Ward? Noticed he still had his pads on and seemed ok celebrating on the sidelines with his teammates. I was watching the game off and on and missed the injury.

Was an ankle injury on an awkward tackle in the 2nd quarter. As soon as they changed QBs, Houston's offense took off.

 

[DoctorWho85]

I see Houston jumping to higher than 20. Navy jumps to 16-18 range and Memphis and temple drop out

Let it snow, let it snow let it snow!

 

[FluxTZ]

Let it snow, let it snow let it snow!

Should be 38 degrees if we have the night game.

Ha! I like your spirit but Clemson would crunch both of them

 

[den2010]
