The big UCF football guide

summary:
"thanks to a more stable run game and experienced quarterback, the offense should improve a little despite turnover at receiver.....Still, teams returning only nine starters have averaged a drop of about 12.6 percentage points over the last decade....I don't foresee such a drop....With a schedule that features only three teams that ranked better than 61st last year (all on the road), the Knights should expect to win another seven to nine games"

Ah crayup.

I thought it would be Navy at #4.

Oh and pesik, OS countdown has UConn at #120. Go check it out :)

Can't really complain about his prognostication.

I thought the pass defense was better than he said last year, but I guess these numbers don't lie.

I hope we can somehow squeeze out a 10 win season, with a win over someone we're not supposed to beat (Stanford / USCe). Wins @ Cinci, vs. ECU will be determined by how well the secondary meshes.

Good write up. If we win 8 games this season i will be pretty happy.

Where would you be willing to see 5 losses? (assuming no CCG + Bowl game)

FIU - W
Stanford - L
Furman - W
USCe - L
Tulane - W
Temple - W
Cincinnati - L
Tulsa - W
Houston - L
UConn - W
ECU - L
USF - W
Bowl - W

That'd be a less than mediocre performance in a season we SHOULD improve in.

Down to Navy, Cincy and Memphis for the top 3 spots.

I won't. When Holman leaves we have a problem as we haven't yet found our qb of the future
