Does an eternal optimist (aka sunshine pumper) ever expect a let down?

Perish the thought!
Sunshine Pumpers are a special breed. They are not merely optimistic, the glass is always half-full types, no, no! They can watch their team get crushed 63-0 and say, hey, the defense forced two punts, so it could have been 77-0! And then they will attack those who dare say, Hah! we got our azz kick! Then they'll recall a game from 40 years ago when the defense didn't make any stops....so there!

No let down? Did we change coaches?
Here's hoping for more heroics from Jaylon and Amik!

Life's a lot more pleasant if you expect the let down and are surprised by awesomeness. Let downs seem to happen more often, imo (maybe it's just my Charlie Brown world though).

I just see Ferguson-Amick and rest of team bring their A game . UAB fired up about their ability to get INTs -- so did NT but coaches has Jmar throwing ball half way to China rather than throw INT-- lot of fans irritated when he does but ... I just believe we will be OK-- hate posting this because of "jinx factor " but we are loaded with talent and experience --other than Dancy we loaded for bear. Go Dogs
I know I can always count on you to post something stupid.

Huh. I saw it coming out the other end. Half dozen of one, 6 of the other.

Re: Why I expect no let Down against UAB
Well I experienced a letdown tonight. After last weeks big win, I thought this might be the year we finally win the championship. I was so excited this week. Thought for sure we would crush UAB. I no longer believe a championship is possible under Holtz. If he stays the most we can ever hope for is a minor bowl game against a school nobody cares about. No conference championships, no power 5 wins. It seems we cannot even develop a QB.
Re: Why I expect no let Down against UAB
He is exactly what most of the East Carolina fans came on here and told us he was years ago. He will occasionally overachieve by accident but he is middle of the road 7 wins a year. They also said that he doesn’t adapt well and that’s one of the reasons he is middle of the road.
Re: Why I expect no let Down against UAB
Now we needed a steady hand and some consecutive winning seasons and bowls but now we need to take the next step and is lack of willingness to play any qb not named J’Mar Smith, and his pedantic play calling, his actually causing regression in the program and fan base. Couple that with the desicions made in the AD’s office and the wheels aren’t just coming off, they are 10 rows into the grandstand.

That statement couldn't be more true to our current situation.
