USF wins -- Flowers had one of greatest games in football history: 3 rushing and 2 passing TDs, 210 yds rushing (10.5 ave.), 83% completion rate, 250+ yds passing. We're gonna have our hands full.

It didn't matter. They played about zero defense the whole game. They screwed themselves. USF plays little to no defense either. Flowers is dynamic but they are beatable.

I can't say I agree. Flowers, Mack and now finally Adams arriving in full force make up possibly the top skilled position trio in all of college football.

Although, we are very fast and skilled
defensively and playing at a very high level with the D-line, LBs etc., we will not slow them enough to win if we continue to stall on offense. The only chance that we have is if we can run for 250-300 yards vs USF.

That being said, Griffin is a true QB killer and I've been waiting for the Griffin/Flowers showdown for weeks.
Flowers is so hard to wrap up after the
first hit, but he may be slowed by really putting the wood to him as he's smallish and can be hurt.
 
Our run defense is as porous as anything I have seen. Just horrible.

I said it at the start of the season and I will say it again: UCF will be our toughest game of the season after FSU.

Oh, and as much as I would love to dream, there is no way Temple loses one of their last two games.
 
Neither UCF or USF wins their division championship.

Our championship game is in 2 weeks at Tampa. This will be our greatest defensive
challenge :)

Refs definitely missed that defensive interference on that last play. Memphis should have been given another play. I was hoping for overtime.

The two are almost exactly the same size. Flowers seems to be all muscle. And did you see that last TD which began by him smacking into his own RB? He scored as if he were taking a walk in the park and everyone was standing still. What an outrageous talent.
 
The only path for us is if Temple loses 2 games to Tulane and East Carolina (long shot) and we win out. USF can also get the division if Temple loses 1 game and they win out.
