As great as it is to see our guys be competitive with teams like AU, GT, or LSU I'm just plain hungry for a win. No more moral victories, I'll just be flat out dissapointed if we don't grab a W tommorow. There's no reason we can't hang 40+ on them and win. A loss tommorow also screws our bowl hopes as our schedule only gets tougher from here on out. Here's to 3-3!
Will you be okay with anything other than a win tommorow?

and Houston's QB is looking at our secondary, and if he can stop laughing, he'll throw for 500+. Our only chance is to shorten the game by letting AD set school and concerence records for carries in a game. As Jackie always said, if we can keep it physical, we have a chance. If it turns into a finesse game, we can't win a track meet.
As much as the ending of that game sucked, you could at least take some positives from it. GT, you could somewhat say the same thing. That being said, I'm sick of just being a couple of inches or mistakes away from pulling off a nice win. So no, I wouldn't be happy with anything other than a win tomorrow. This game probably decides the season (bowl, etc.).
I think a loss tomorrow will totally deflate this team. We've shown we can hang with the big boys in 2 disappointing losses to LSU and GT. If we drop our 3rd straight to a Houston team that we're favored to beat I feel like it will kill any momentum we might have. Let's face it, it's much easier to be optimistic being 3-3 and sitting at .500 than being 2-4. </p>
I'm not OK with losing to LSU- see my rant for evidence- or GT, for that matter. The losses are easier to take than a 56-0 drubbing for sure, but to me, it's still extremely frustrating to know that if we take care of the ball, we win both of those games. That's just something that we should do. Especially at home with crowds that are going nuts the entire time.
As far as the teams effort and all that, I don't applaud that because I expect it.
Plus, it's homecoming for goodness sakes. Everyone should win their homecoming at the very least. And I know the schedule this year is horrible, and UH is very good, and it wouldn't be like losing to Troy, but still.

We absolutely should win this game tomorrow. Having said that, I wouldn't be at all surprised if we lost.</p>
If anything I will be more pissed off with a "close but not quite" performance against Houston than I was against LSU and Georgia Tech. You can make the argument that we aren't supposed to beat an LSU team loaded with 5-star talent. And you can possibly make the argument that at least Georgia Tech is another BCS team.
But it would suck *** of epic proportions if we lose, again, to a Conference USA school. I know they have a flukey offense that should take advantage of our biggest weakness but still, we should be able to control the line of scrimmage on both sides and get a W.
