    Gameday!!

    Yeah, they make less on average coming out of UCF than they would if they had just been a shelf stock-person at Lowes. They are getting a crap degree that is just keeping them in debt for years.

    We used to score a lot of points with the TO. I just feel like most of their success is predicated on that paced offense wearing down the defense. I could be wrong, and often am, but we can do better than UCF's OC (not saying we have it now, mind you...)

    I'm not a fan of the play calls today either, but you do have to imagine that it would have been difficult for anyone to adjust the planned offense to suddenly losing your starting (and powerful) RB and both of the experienced Tight Ends. I bet if we'd had them I would have been much happier...

    Nah, we are just overestimating UCF since The Disney Channel talking heads told us they are really good and that they are the 'real national champs'. If that's true we looked pretty good. Unfortunately, that's not true and we aren't as far along as you'd hope yet. But the future's looking good...

    I don't want their OC. We just got rid of a gimmick offense that half of P5 was lobbying to change the rules to make it less successful (which they did.) If we started this super-fast pace crap UNC would get rules passed to require time to replace defensive players for "Player Safety." We just...

    Yep, and soft. We should have hit him every time he called the read option, just like teams would hit our QBs whether they pitched the ball or not. Yeah, sure, they would have gotten more yards. But it's not like we were stopping them anyway. But we needed to get him scared and afraid to be...

    Well, at least I can salve my pride on a 7 - 14 point win prediction by saying that it was predicated on pounding Mason up the middle for 20 plays to wear them out. And there was a moment when I thought we might pull it off there in the fourth. Then the wheels fell off and our guys got their...

    I agree with all your positive stuff, so thanks. But we are going to have to disagree with UCF being such a good team. They are a good team, but that's it. They aren't worthy of half the praise they were getting from the Disney-employed hacks announcing the game. Now I really, really hope they...

    While I agree that you can't win with 6 turnovers, those are not independent variables in this experiment. If we had a better called game, the need to do some of the stuff that led to turnovers wouldn't have been there. It's a momentum game, and the no-calls, horrific spots and help with ball...

    Yep, I agree stech81. This wasn't an expected win. It was just extremely frustrating to see our guys fighting hard and having to deal with the poor officiating. Unfortunately they would have had a tough time with a well-called game. They had almost no hope with all the help the AAC gave UCF.

    Almost guaranteed to be the dumbest school we play this year. I guess they get to be good at the stuff that doesn't matter. University of Central Florida Rankings #114 in Best Colleges for Veterans (tie) #141 in Best Value Schools #62 in Top Performers on Social Mobility (tie) #77 in Top...

    Yep. But I'd rather have played Wyoming or something in the first couple of games :)

    Oof. I was worried about having to play two teams from the Florida Petri Dish early this year, then all the northern teams once it takes over the colder areas. The scheduling gods are clearly against us.

    Stated with authority. This will be interesting if true. Also bodes ill for the M-Train.

    I don't suppose it's legal to open up the big doors on the north side when they have the ball and close them when we have it. :)

    I'm just surprised he didn't try to refute the 'small' part of my comment...:ROFLMAO:

    I rewatched the full FSU game this morning while @stech81 was starting drinking :) It's very evident on a rewatch that our defense got a LOT better as they lost OL starters. I didn't notice it in the heat of the moment as much, but it is causing me to rethink how good the defense might be. As we...
