is anyone seeing anything worrisome with UCF? I didn't see the 1st half, but the 3rd quarter almost look like a stalemate.

If the 'Stangs are healthy, I like their chances against UCF. However, the following week @ Southern Mississippi is concerning. I think they have legit chance of being a 10 win team.

I agree about UCF, but I am really confused about S. Miss. They lost to Marshall. And, watching Marshall tonight does not stir any positive impressions. so......... what to think? I want to play the S. Miss that played Marshall.

I gather UCF's pass defense is pretty good. We need a huge week from Zach Line to win.

UCF's junior cornerback Josh Robinson was named to the Thorpe Award (top defensive back), Bronko Nagurski Trophy (top defensive player) and the College Football Performance Awards defensive back and punt returner watch lists. Coach Mason raved about him at last weeks lunch. He is fast, extremely talented and is a shut down player, so one side of the field will be closed off for JJ. He had an INT against us last year.

The only offensive points UCF notched were in the 1st quarter...they added a safety in the 2nd quarter.

UCF's Defense is playing Championship ball-I know thery are 3-2 but their defense really isn't to blame for either loss-here's an excerpt from what happened in those losses:




In the BYU game, their two longest drives for touchdowns were 38 and 24 yards. The other touchdown was a kick return.

Our defense is that good. Our offense and punt return unit just puts the defense in bad positions.

Against FIU their longest touchdown drive was 8 yards. The punt returner fumbled on our 8. FIU's other touchdown was a fumble return.

Again our offense and special teams unit cost us.

Your team just got stoned to the tune of 130 total yards, 19 minutes TOP, 6 first downs, and a safety. Even without the rain that is the equivalent of you getting your butts handed to you by an SEC quality defense.
