Riding the Bulls train who are red hot, winning 14 straight and 15 of 16 AAC games. USF's defense is particularly stingy, allowing only 68.2 points per contest (78th in NCAA), compared to Toolame's leaky D allowing 80 points a game. This will be especially difficult for Tulane, who has been sliding downwards lately failing to cover the spread in 5 of its last 6 games. USF packs a punch on offense averaging 82.6 per game (20th in NCAA), with really good shooters who can light it up, averageing 47.7% (34th) in NCAA and 35.1 from the 3 point line (57th), while tulane's big defensive weakeness is their 3 point Defense which ranks 209th in the NCAA. On defense, USF is holding teams to 41.4% shooting (49th in NCAA), and 30.7% from 3 (29th in NCAA). This will be a struggle from start to finish for Toolame Green Wave.

I’m with you on Texas St. sold a full point on that spread though -4.5 +108 I think they win by 10 or more even on a neutral court ODU is abysmal and this should be the last game of their season.

Before I added coffee mate and sugar, but I think it's been like 2 yrs now that I only drink pure dark coffee. You'll be able to taste its real taste when you drink it pure.

I think others adding it because strong coffee can trigger gastric stomach issues.

Never tried that before but don’t think I’ll like it don’t drink coffee everyday. One morning I’ll try that Genie.

[piratealew]

Yep the old Peedee river, used to fish on it and have a lot of fun. Pirates like blackbeard apparently so loved that river too so the mascot got his name from edward teach aka blackbeard and the river. people always wonder where a name like pee-dee comes from LOL

Was asked why Florida and Illinois---here's my synopsis

Florida is easy here, Fla only lost by 5 on the 21st AT bama (and should have won after being late and failing at the very end), and situationally, UF NEEDS this game worse than Bama for a quad 1 win. Gators offense should score at ease against a Tide defense that gives up 88.6 points in road games.

Illinois also pretty evenly matched as Illinois only lost by 5 on the road last game. Purdue simply doesnt put teams away especially on the road and the Boilermakers are dipping into the 45.5% shooting now and scoring only 77.1 pts per game. Illinois is one of the few teams in the country avg more Pts per than Purdue at 84.8 points per, which is 7th nationally. The fighting illinis also led the big 10 in Offensive rebounds, at almost 13 offensive boards a game. They also shoot the rock well at 47.4% FG and 35.4% from 3 and nearly 75% from the FT line. Illinois is +8.8 in rebounding and -1.8 in turnovers (compared to Purdue at a similar -1.5).

If Illinois wants to have a share of the conference title, they have to win this game and at home, to get revenge. What better way than at home on Senior night?

Sorry I dont have as much time for the big writeups like So Fla but that's what i had in my notes last night.
