You realize Houston has the biggest darling this season in Ed Oliver ....

The national media wants us to be good.. which is why we have had 2 OTA games and a ESPN games and we are only 3 games in

Also Houston lost to texas tech in a shootout on 4th down drop , that let them get 2 scores up

Boise was blownout by ok state

Our losses played each other... Texas tech blew out okstate

You sound like a Boise fan with the 'national media wants us to be good' statement.  

Fact is - national media could give a rats ass about any G5 team at the end of the day. 

Sounds good for the narrative of the moment. Little guy should get a shot at the title,etc.  This ain't Rocky,  Mick.

Houston, UCF, Boise are all side stories. Get used to it.

Google defensive stats

Houston has the best run defense stats in all of the G5..

Houston pass defense was never good that has been known but Houston pass defense looked horrific vs the best passing offense in the nation

But we won't play anyone with that caliber passing attack unless we meet UCF in the CCG

Your "we don't at defense statement" is naive ...

Get ready for us to be magically find defense not playing air raid offense

We ran for 131 yards and 2 TD's on you guys...

On 3yds per rush, you realize that is bad.. very bad

Fresno had negative rushing yards in the 1st half... 50% of all your rushing yard came from your very last drive of the game 

Ed Oliver played great vs Fresno, he had numerous tackles for loss and had a rushing touchdown

Sportingnews made a full article about how good he played

It's not UCFs fault that a hurricane caused their winnable P5 road game to get cancelled....they offered to fill the hole in Nebraska's schedule but shockingly Frost wasn't interested.

Second year in a row.   Didn’t ucf not play Ga tech last year because of Hurricanes?

The AAC is having a cupcake eating party during the OOC. Won't be surprised if all of the P5's they've beaten in the OOC fail to play in bowl games.

Once they start playing each other they hit the P6 murderes row.....🤣😂🤣

He played great? Your highlight video shows 2 TFL’s and a cheap vulture TD. Only one of them was impressive.  The RB turned and ran straight into him in the other.

He had a total of 4 tackles that game. Yeah, “great” stuff. Lmao.

ed oliver stat debates are the worst because people like you dont understand what a nose tackles stats are supposed to look like..and start comparing them to linebacker numbers

1) a dt who averages 4 tackles a game( 2 tackles for loss a game) would a unanimous 1st team all-american....the #1 dt last year (da'ron pay), averaged 3 tackles a game, and had 1 tck for loss total the entire seaason

2) those 2 tackle weren't all the plays he made (the point of me posting that link was to show that a major site decided to make content on how good he played, not that those plays encompassed everything he did in the game) and the box score doesnt even tell the full story 

houston runs a 3-3-5 (not a traditional 4-3), meaning we only have 3 dline in the game at any point...fresno had NEGATIVE rushing yards till the 3rd quarter, almost half of your entire rushing yards can on the very last drive...oh right, ED OLIVER WASNT IN THAT DRIVE AT ALL (he had a minor injury the drive before), the only semblance of a run game for fresno was with the absence of ed oliver ..that is dominance 

i wish someone made a ed oliver vs fresno highlight reel, it would be more evident...but here is a highlight reel for the season for him, this doesnt even show all the plays he made in the game (as it is supposed to season encompassing) and even stilll shows he owned you guys ..fresno stuff as 6:03 

 

you guys and tech fans are the worst...yo guys claim you owned ed oliver....no you didnt..owning ed oliver= huge rushing yards, running right at him, or tons of deep pass, from having days in the pocket..neither you or tech did that... you ran at ed, got nothing...so you then decided to throw tons of short quick passes to limit the impact of ed (ps im not made at it, that is the smart way to play houston, challenge our dbs not ed oliver)

Oh, man. I had no clue you were so touchy about Oliver. He’s not that good. Overrated. We beat him and we beat you. Now go kick rocks.

I did.

 

95th in Total Defense. I am sure you are about to tell me that that is because you played Texas Tech, right? Well, maybe you are ahead of the game because you played an anemic Arizona, Texas Southern and Rice also. Those three teams are a combined 4-10, with three of the wins being against FCS competition. 

 

Look, I like what Major is doing at Houston, and I actually think UH is going to be good this year. But their defense is horrible, and you have not beaten a single decent team as of yet. Even the FCS competition you played was weak. I do agree that Houston will start playing better now, especially in your three game stretch of Tulsa, ECU and Navy. Three teams that are not very good.

and 28th in rushing defense...

is it a commonality to mask specific traits of a game by simply stating who won...fresno fans are claiming they owned ed oliver, ignoring that he played great simply because houston lost

now despite talking specifics, you are trying to discredit  all specifics by saying they dont have great win loss records

1) arizona played a not horrible byu and usc in tight games (where arizona was atleast scoring)....it was 38-0 with our starters (1st half)..all Arizona points came vs backups

2) Oklahoma st has an elite defense (shut down boise), with identical strengths/weakness (elite dline/questionable dbs) as houston..texas tech put 700yds on us, they put 650yds on oklahoma state (note tech was running out the clock because they were blowing out ok state all 4th quarter)..are you going to say okstate has no defense too?

3) houston returns most of the pieces from last years defense which was one of the best in the g5, added a few touted pieces, and still has most of the same coaches. im sure our guys didnt forget how to play defense...

3b) funny enough our pass defense wasnt good last year either but last year against high powered passing offenses we played keep away because our offense wasnt good (long sustained drive) and knew we couldnt keep up in shootout..this year with a good offense we tried to outscore them and it backfired (honestly a 4th down wide open drop by killed us as it gave them a 2 scored lead)...

there is no other high powered passing air raid offense on our schedule...prepare to be magically amazed as we find a defense the rest of the season....

also tulsa played a top 15 texas close (tulsa lost by 1 score, note tulsa missed 3 chip shot fgs, and didnt attempt a 4th kick, that was a turnover on downs), ecu blew out unc, and played undefeated usf close..navy will be bowl team, if navy isn't good, 9 of the 12 mwc are not good... 

if we have no defense those will 100% be shoot outs,

this statement doesnt make sense to me at all

1) hawaii/mac lost its ny6..houston won it's own.. even if that was our high water mark, it isnt the same as hawaii.. in the last 30 years no major bowl game has been won by a non aac/non boise team outside the current p5

2) do you not have the internet..houston has been to something like 6 major bowl games, and 1 end of the season texas upset away from a national championship...we have a heisman and a regular top team for most of our history..something like 6 top 10 finishes in the final poll....and only started playing football like 60years ago

as a matter of fact the only time in our history we werent a top team was the years we DIDNT have resources...1993-2003 (years after being left out of the swc, after it was announced)...houston (and every team left out)  instantly lost millions a year.. while everyone else was spending to improve their programs, houston had to find away to cut everything to cut millions from their budget (not a single facility in houston received any renovations for over a decade).it wasnt until houston hired a high school coach for cheap (art briles) who found a way to win for no money, ,did we climb out of the no resource hole...when he won, donor funding drastically increased 

beyond that 10 year dark ages..we have honestly be a top program no matter where we've been

Ahem...

Oh, so now you are telling me Tulsa is good? ECU is good? No objective measure says that, but I realize you overvalue every AAC team, regardless of the results.

Navy would likely be a 6-7 ranked team in the MW, just as they are in the AAC. Yea, we all watched the Hawaii game. Sorry, we cannot un-see that. Now, start telling me how it was the first game, Hawaii had an advantage to Week 0, and it was in Hawaii.....etc.....etc.....etc........Which of course, is just a compliment to the MW and the fact that Hawaii, who will probably lose three MW games. Have fun.

Stating legitimate advantages is still stating legimate advantages... Playing week 0 is a huge advantage .. FACT

And where did I say Tulsa or ECU are good??? I said we if we have no defense those games will definitely be shootouts 

ECU and Tulsa Definitely have the potential to score on a "bad defense".. which is true. Neve said they were good

You like to make it seem like I'm biased when it is you who is always crazy biased.

You ignore any rational to fit whatever narrative you want..like how you completely ignored my okstate point .. which is 100% valid... Houston having no credibility on defense just better fits your narrative

I scan through what you write, and don't read it all. Mainly because I have a business to run, and secondarily because your lack of punctuation, makes what you write, hard to read. 

Make your OSU point again. I just may agree with you.

Oh, and this is where you try to justify horrible programs (ECU and Tulsa) as being better than they are, and an average team, as somehow being good. But hey, here you go. 

You always claim I am not rational. I have said the same thing since the beginning. 

1. It is all cyclical.

2. The AAC and the MW's top are similar

3. The AAC has been better top to bottom than the Mountain West as of late.

Point three does not appear to the be the case this year. It is about the same. Furthermore, the MW seems to have beaten the AAC more times than not. Sorry, I cannot unsee those games.

OSU point- Oklahoma State shut down an elite Boise offense, Oklahoma State before playing tech was argued as one of the better defenses in the nation (led nation in sacks till that point) 

Texas tech put up 700yards on Houston(horrible) , but they put up 650yds on okstate (while running out the clock in the 4th quarter from a blowout)

Wvu who was argued as top 10 defense in all of college football before playing tech. Tech put up 500yds on them despite techs QB (collapsed lung) and top Wr (broken ankle) didn't play ( 150yds more than anyone else)

Your entire premise for Houston not having defense is because of Texas tech. Have you ever considered that Texas tech is just that good on offense this year, not that Houston is horrific on defense
