Dread Pirate Robert Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Speaking of Mr. Finebaum, he said this back on Oct 30, hitting the nail squarely on the head: “The only thing UCF has going for them is a grandstanding athletic director who just can’t keep his mouth shut, but also can’t schedule a decent opponent,” Finebaum said. “And (UCF has) a fan base that is delusional.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet they wish they could have played the likes of The Citadel. Those military cadet types can be rough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet they wish they could have played the likes of The Citadel. Those military cadet types can be rough. Aren't we talking about this year? I haven't noticed Auburn on UCF's schedule. LSU will be the first and only decent opponent that UCF plays all year. UCF's biggest challenge all year is going to be a team that placed 5th or 6th in the SEC this year. As for that comment about the Citadel, I take that as a swipe at Alabama. Funny thing is, by criticizing Alabama's schedule as somehow weak but at the same time overlooking the vastly weaker schedule of UCF, you only reveal yourself as being an irrational, inconsistent, grossly biased hypocrite when it comes to this entire subject. It is utterly absurd to criticize Bama's schedule while giving a free pass to UCF's far weaker one. Taking such irrational positions is what Finebaum had in mind when he said that UCF's fan base was delusional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Pirate Robert Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Will he be back? (Urban Meyer) "Meyer proclaimed Tuesday that he's leaving Ohio State because of health issues, and that he's done coaching. It's the same thing he said eight years ago after walking away from Florida." He is 8 years older, and apparently in much poorer health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dread Pirate Robert Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Trying to compare how UCF fared against common opponents of the SEC: there is only one such common opponent, Memphis, which played against UCF twice and Missouri from the SEC once. Memphis gave UCF a lot of trouble twice, once in the regular season and again on Saturday. The first game, UCF won 31-30. The second game, 56-41. In both of those games, UCF was losing at halftime and still losing when the 4th quarter started. In contrast, Missouri stomped Memphis with no difficulty. Missouri was winning 21-3 at the end of the 1rst quarter, 48-20 at halftime, 62-27 at the end of the 3rd, with a final score of 65-33 Missouri is just a standard middle of the pack SEC team, finishing at 5th place in the SEC East (out of 7 places) with a 4-4 conference record and 8-4 record overall. The ACC wins its first bowl game, as lowly 6-6 Wake Forest beats Memphis 37-34. UCF's joke of a schedule looking even jokier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
