Have we hit the “make Jake Heaps look like a five star QB” section of the schedule yet?

Now's when we start picking on people our own size. Now's when we find out just how far down the floor is.
ECU is terribler than BYU, in theory. Here's hoping that holds up.

They move the ball but can't stop anybody. However, we can't stop anybody and can't score. Doesn't sound like a good opponent for us.
"Guitar groups are on their way out, Mr Epstein."
Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.
I’m predicting 3-3 over the next 6. BYU’s competition is terrible and BYU is equally terrible.
I think we drop one, the most likely being Fresno.

I’m going to go glass half-full and predict 5-1.

Unfortunate thread title suggestions:
- "Arrrgghhh you ready for our first FBS win of the season?"
- "A Pirate ship we can finally sink"
- "Sweet T Mangum rises again"
- "Victory on Tobacco Road -- football adapted to the capacity of the weak"
Apologies for the Topper-like attitude.
I have nothing else to say at this time.

ECU has given up 34, 56, 64, 38, 61, 34 and 63 points this season. Looks like a defense that an offense should get well against but I have my doubts.

I think this is a pretty accurate prediction. It'll either be Fresno or UNLV.
Cracks me up that anybody could watch this horrible BYU team and think “Uh yeah I’m pretty sure we will win out but we might drop 1 remaining game.”
This team is horrible and I wouldn’t trust them to beat any FBS school at this point. Hope I’m wrong.

ECU is a terrible team and the local's are up in arms that the new AD Jeff Compher fired Ruffian McNeil a couple of years ago then was shocked when no coach worth his salt would take the job. Then the ECU president gave the jerk an extension on his contract and now they can't fire the AD. This is typical of so many college programs where the coach has a good team and the boosters/AD think they should be in top 5 or something crazy. I wouldn't be surprised if the stadium is empty. Not only is ECU terrible but there is no hope of getting rid of the clown in charge of athletics. Morale is horrible in G-Vegas.

GIVE 'EM HELL, BRIGHAM!
BYU is going to win out, including the bowl game. Finish 8-6 and we are all going to be pumped come spring ball for next season when the schedule lightens up a bit and Tanner is a 30 year old senior.
Of course next year we start with @Arizona, Cal, @Wisconsin, Mcneese State, @ Washington. So most likely we start the season 1-4 again, and we go through this all over.
We finish with Utah State, Hawaii, Northern Illinois, @Boise, @UMASS, New Mexico State, @ Utah. So we need to finish 5-2 to make a bowl game.

We all know it's been a rough season so far, but it gets on track this week with the Cougs inspired by their visit to the true and living church of bbq. As OceanBlue mentioned, ECU is down down down this year and they give up a lot of offense. We had some glimpses of getting things in order and this is the place to really make that happen. The Pirates' lone win was a tight one that almost went to OT and they're not rolling in points either.
The purple and gold will be black and blue Saturday night!
And if you need meal ideas, go back to the trippin post.
I have nothing else to say at this time.
Based on the number of post already in this thread it doesn't look like many are excited for the game Saturday.
These should probably be added to the total:

It's to bad they didn't name it East North Carolina University, then they could have been the most directional of all directional colleges.
Threads merged. Sorry Moliere. Your title lost.
