Then state that this is an alternate view in your original post instead of misrepresenting that these are the "Sagarin Ratings" which have 3 primary variations all of which have the AAC West as the 10th best Conference/Division.

Well I think they’re still considered Sagarin ratings. It’s just his new methodology. From now on, I’ll say ΓÇ£Sagarin - New MethodologyΓÇ¥...

Maybe when we get closer to game time, my heart prediction will surface...but, with our abysmal defense; I have a bad feeling for this one. UCF- a whole bunch SMU- not near enough.

Have to admit, I am very surprised how optimistic these predictions are.
UCF is averaging 49.6 points a game. We do NOT have an average defense. It's going to take more than 50 from the offense to win or a truly ridiculous number of turnovers generated by the D.
It has happened… but I don't see it this time around.

So no fake news, but plenty of alternative facts.

UCF by 20. We just don’t play well against better teams. I have no hope of upsetting anyone.

I think this game sets up like Houston last year, a possible coaching change, an improving SMU team.
I like our chances.
UCF 38
SMU 48

Well, scoring 73 (FCS) and 63 (ECU) points against inadequate defenses will lift your average scoring a lot. We raised ours in the same manner. We need to hold them in the 30s to win, I would think. We'll see. Turnovers would appear to be our best chance.

If we hold UCF under 30 then someone get the marble statue of Van Malone ready to put next to Doak.

I can't argue against that!
