Possible Bowl Opponent: Rice

[ULtimateCajun]

Just heard Stevey P on the radio say that the most likley bowl would be Houston Bowl playing Rice. Not trying to put the buggy before the horse here but here are a few stats on Rice. They throw the ball a lot! But appears not to play D so it would look like a shootout. And WR Jarrett Dillard is a stud.

UL in a bowl game would make me VERY happy! Playing Rice, well I'm a little worried about that.

If we thought FAU had a good passing game...

All 3 of these guys are studs. Clement can beat you with his arm and his legs. Casey I think is one of the biggest keys to their offense. He will line up everywhere and is a bull. He will line up at QB in there "Wild Hog" type of formation. What else can you say about Dillard, just look at his numbers.

Yeah I had heard about this matchup last night and my first thought was "alright, I like that matchup" (obviously not knowing anything about Rice besides Jarett Dillard) I was way off when I looked at these stats. They are 9-3, put up mid 40 pts every game, and have beaten two teams that blew us out. So maybe the matchup isnt so good. haha

Lets just decline the offer if it comes our way.

Z...I'm not being a pessimist on this one...we got three studs on offense as well. Fenroy, Desmo, and Chery!

Hey, nobody's saying decline! Just having a friendly matchup discussion.

I think we'd all be happy going to a bowl regardless of the outcome, right?
