Did that just happen? Did Rice just upset a conference contender on the road as a 20+ point underdog with a third string QB and a bunch of defensive starters out . . . for the second year in a row? Y'all, they did! And Matt and Carter are here on this week's Roost Podcast to break it down for you. How did the Owls pull this off? Does it mean something positive going forward (PLEASE)? Does it foretell more clarity and consistency at the QB position (lol probably not)? All that and more!

So Matt hops on with friend of the pod Eric Henry of Underdog Dynasty, for another State of C-USA pod! Matt and Eric cover the conference from top to bottom, East to West, leaving no stone unturned. They ask the important questions, including the most important one of all: "Is . . . is UTEP actually good?"

Is there real reason to worry about the defense? All that and more!
