maybe next year with a better defense?

Florida Atlantic University head football coach Lane Kiffin has appointed Glenn Spencer as defensive coordinator of the FAU Owls. Spencer most recently held the same position with the Charlotte 49ers.

In one season at Charlotte, Spencer revitalized the defensive unit. The 49ers were ranked 11th in the county with 88.5 rushing yards per game. Additionally, the 49ers ranked third in C-USA and 14th in the FBS in total defense allowing just 306.6 total yards of offense.

Prior to Charlotte, Spencer spent 10 years at Oklahoma State University as defensive coordinator, defensive line coach and linebackers coach.
During his 10 years at OSU, Spencer was the Cowboys' defensive coordinator for five seasons. The Cowboys amassed a 96-34 record over those 10 years and won both the 2011 and 2012 Fiesta Bowl games. OSU made additional trips to New Year's Six bowl games – the Sugar Bowl in 2016 and 2015, as well as the Cotton Bowl in 2014, 2013, 2010 and 2009. The Cowboys enjoyed 10-win seasons in six of Spencer's last seven years and won six of their last eight bowl games.

You are a lucky bastage. Too bad @PiratesRoost  is no longer posting here. He'd probably buy you all the drinks you want, assuming he still lives down there.

Yeah. I had forgotten about it. 

I wonder if anyone was flagged for excessive celebration in the Celebration Bowl?

Solich closes out another nine-win season. He’s been very solid to good at a very bad job. Good on him.

Is it a bad job?  I would think Ohio would be one of the better MAC jobs.

Idaho is a beautiful state.  It's not well known, but the territory was originally settled by a lady of ill repute
I guess Idaho sounded better than Skanky-ho

There are some really good players on G5 teams (duh) and when one of them gets a great QB and a decent OL and perhaps a solid RB and WR, they can get dangerous, especially with a wonky offense.

If I coached a G5 program, I'd look for that "athlete" playing QB who was being passed over or offered safety as a position by the Bigs and craft a wonky offense that leveraged his abilities, sounds like UCF.

In a battle of actual mascots I'd have to think that a Thundering Herd would be heavily favored over a Bull.

Solich is a solid coach and a derned fine man

not sure he was going to win conference championships at UNL, he hasn't won too many MAC championships
