OK, I just read the attached article.
I must be losing my mind.
Who's D was ranked 24th in the nation against the run?

I know it ain't us. We were ranked 99th out of 119 DI schools.
I know it wasn't UCF. They were ranked 39th.

BTW, we ranked 116 against the pass & 116 total D. Again, that's out of 119 schools.

Tumpkin is an awesome coach. He is extremely smart and I think that he will be a D coordinator one day. Great pickup for UCF.

Are we talking about the same Coach Tumpkin? I've never heard such a glowing reference for him, but nonetheless, I'm happy for him and hope he enjoys the job.

Now that stat is truly the ticket to a 1-11 season. Pretty impressive we won a game, much less been in the other 4-5 games at the end that we could have won. Thanks for the great D, PB!
