UCF clubbed Cinci last night in a game that was over by half time, but literally they called the game at the end of 3rd. Mostly due to weather but the 28 point lead helped! UCF offense, defense, and special teams are playing lights out.

Last week we cracked the top 25 and I expect to move up when the polls come out later today.

Yes, I'm bragging. As a long time UCF fan it feels good to be winning again and just obliterating the competition. Hope it continues and I'm feeling real confident we win out the rest the games. (did I just curse myself? LOL)

UCF 61 FIU 17
UCF 38 Maryland 10

They're (UCF) scoring a ton of points which always helps.

UF and FSU are out and UCf and USF are in. The times they have a changed.

"One of the reasons why propaganda tries to get you to hate government is because it's the one existing institution in which people can participate to some extent and constrain tyrannical unaccountable power." Noam Chomsky.

UF and FSU deserve to be outta the top 25 ... for now

UCF is most deserving of it's ranking ..... USF, not so much so IMO.

I am still not confident that UM can beat anyone ranked above them .... and certainly not the top 5

Miami does not play anyone ranked above them. ( currently on the schedule)

VT and ND are ranked, both are home games for the U.

I would be a lot more confident if 3 of our best players were not hurt or out.
( Walton, Richards, Donaldson )

Defense is improving every game. Kicking game is solid. Feagles showed his pedigree.

Rosier has become legend thanks to " THE DRIVE." ( Braxton also...)

A very strong wind is blowing and it is a Miami Hurricane.


Continued props to UCF. Congrats.

Miami does look good. going into Tally and winning on that final drive was amazing and surely a boost of confidence for the rest of the year.

USF is 5-0 but haven't beaten anyone with a pulse and had some close games. They are bound to slip up...mainly Black Friday!

After this weekend's games, coach poll:

UCF moves to 5-0 and moved up one spot to #20 UCF is looking really-really good this year. Offense, defense, and special teams. Next up is @Navy

USF at #13. Again, UCF-USF Black Friday game is gonna be one for the ages if both teams stay undefeated into that game.


Miami #7

Yes, The I-4 War is setting up nicely. I keep saying at some point the great state of football should just be one conference:

Miami, FSU, UF, UCF, USF, FAU, FIU.

ACC expansion: UCF, USF...( dream on)

Meanwhile, my blood pressure has recovered and I will be at Hard Rock this weekend.

Football weekend for you! That Syracuse upset over Clemson was huge. Good set up for Miami to take that and click up a few spots in the rankings! Are they for real?

I don't know at what point we say: We are back.

Injuries tell the tale. Who knows what the depth is like, but we are finding out.

In the last several years ( With Golden as the coach ) when Hurricanes held up 4 fingers to start the 4th quarter it meant nothing. Now its back to what it used to mean: we win the 4th quarter.

I think an ACC championship would signal that Miami is back......

UCF 31 @NAVY 21....

UCF moves to 6-0 in a very hard fought battle. First time all year UCF was challenged and game went into the 4th.

Defense stepped up with the turnovers in the 4th

another solid win for your Knights

The U failed to take advantage of multiple Quez turnovers in the first half and escaped with another close one ..... HOWEVER, they will need to play MUCH MUCH better to beat either VT or Dame!! They are ranked were they are based on zero losses but are not a top 10 team .... IMO.

I didn't see the miami game but Syracuse did beat #2 Clemson last week. So they have a pulse. that is a good win. But, yes, got some games to play still.
