This would be my ratings as well. Despite some Tulsa and Memphis fans mouthing off, Tulsa has looked good in its two games.
I wish ucf though had won the game against Tulsa which would have moved them top 10 and a one point loss too Memphis on the road would have kept them in the rankings and pulled Memphis in as well giving AAC 4 ranked teams instead of 2.

Tulsa shouldn't be talking trash yet.
Our defense is formidable but, our offense has had 3 good quarters, 2 terrible quarters, and 3 bad quarters.
But, we have played at #11, now #6 ranked B12's OK St and what was #11 UCF.
We scored 7 vs OK St which is what KU scored and, we know how bad KU is.

We also scored 34 on UCF. Only Memphis has done better against them this year at 50. Difference being, UM was home while TU was away.

So, TU still has work to do.

Oh we're not good. Our defense is good. We might win vs USF but I don't see us winning any more than that. Coach is too stubborn and we make way too many mistakes. OSU lost their QB and the back up wasn't good enough, kept it closer than even our good defense should have kept it. UCF is one of the few teams who makes as many mistakes (penalties, turnovers) as we do which contributed to both their losses vs us.

Run heavy teams will give us issues. Another season of close losses is what I expect. Unfortunately covid has so messed things up we have to live with Monty for one more year and watch the talent we have on offense go to waste.
