We had a prediction from an article I read that we would go back to the CUSA game
Out of @Akron, @Ohio State, Missouri, and FIU, how do you think we do?

RE: We had a prediction from an article I read that we would go back to the CUSA game
I've thought about this, and of course I want us to go undefeated in all of those games, but I will consider going 3-1 in those games an achievable success. 2-2 would be a disappointment (assuming we beat Akron and FIU, which we better...) because that would mean another year without a marquee win, another year without a resume builder. BYU was a good team last year, and we lost by a possession. FIU was lost on stupid mistakes and turnovers.

Fix those mistakes, and build on last year, and the 6 games we lost by a touchdown or less could easily be victories.

My desire for this year? 12-2 (+1 over our 11-3 year)
My "I'll accept it" goal? 11-3
My "we still have a lot of work to do" goal? winning record +
My "fire O'Leary already" goal? anything less than a winning record.

RE: We had a prediction from an article I read that we would go back to the CUSA game
Here's how I think we'll fare:

@Akron - win by 15,, but not as much as we should win by
@tOSU - lose by 10, we'll keep it close for a while, but they'll break us
FIU - win big
Mizzou - lose in a squeaker, I have no faith that Leary can win this game
ECU - win by 10
USM - win in a squeaker
@memphis - win, but not by as much as we should
@Marshall - win in a squeaker
SMU - win in a squeaker
@UTEP - lose in a squeaker, we'll do something stupid and lose this one
@Tulsa - win in a squeaker or lose by a touchdown
UAB - win, but not by as much as we should

So either 9-3 and in the CCG, or 8-4 and probably in the CCG.

I like this, except UCF is not prone to coog it's when we are winning CCG's. 2007 we lost to ECU, not a coog it. 2010 we lost to USM, still not a coog it. I think it we make it to the CCG we drop one of ECU / USM / SMU.

just imo

Lol... sorry I forgot you're mostly a rivals poster.

It's kind of an inside term for the CUSA board. Houston has this term that they always always always lose a game that they shouldn't in a million years lose.

They call it "Cooging it".

I was referring specifically to us losing to UTEP in your predictions. I'd consider that a "Coog it", kinda like how we lost to UAB last year...

but ya, that's the short of it.

I'll bite.

@Akron - Win
@Ohio State - Slaughter (I may go to this game....03-banghead)
Missou - Loss
FIU - Win

That looks like typical UCF results during the past 25 years, no?

Yeah, that was a hoot at the last one, huh? This years team seems similar to that team. Weak DBs, a few positions transitioning. Hell, even our QB situation seems similar. If Bortles turns out to be 3 years of Brett Hodges, I wouldn't mind. I just want our D to start dominating again.

I just never know after we lost to FIU and UAB. If we lose to FIU again at home I'm personally go to fly to Orlando and put for sale signs on his lawn.

If the school wants to make a name for itself, this is the year to do it. OSU, with a new coach and new system, it is viable and with Missouri, a home game, not out of the question. I still remember when UT came to our place.

Ugh, that was brutal to lose that game after being so close. I still remember watching that 2002 game against #23 Penn State and thinking, "If the refs had not called that Gabriel TD incomplete, we would have won. Oh well, I'm sure we'll be beating a lot of ranked teams from now on."

I don't want to turn this into an "I hate O'Leary" thread, but man, if you had told me that all we would have to show from the next ten years was 2 CUSA titles, I would not have believed you.

Let us not look to the past, let's see if the future will bring better results, although winning two CUSA titles ain't bad. Our MAC years weren't any better, or even close.
