As for UCF taking offense, enjoy the Fiesta and I couldn't care less if they take offense. As for Miami's offense, of course they are weaker without Duke at RB. That said, after he went out they averaged 35 a game over 4 games before last night. If 35 points a game "sucks" to most here, again, not worth debating.

They weren't that good. Trust me I live in Miami follow them. Who did they score those points on? Virginia, Pitt, Duke? None of those are defensive giants

Coaches say crap like that all the time. Everyone knows Miami's offense sucked without Duke.

Charlie "butt hurt" strong sounds retarded when he makes comments like these. For cubanbull, UCF only has 75 scholarship players and we had plenty of injuries. Quit making excuses. Miami is just a bad team and even worse without Duke at RB.

I notice you ignored 1 of the 4 teams they played. V Tech, a top 10 scoring defense who they still put up 24 on. Their final 4 opponents averaged 56th in scoring defense. 56th is better than 5 AAC defenses, worse than the other 5 in the AAC. So fair to say they ended the year playing D's comparable to AAC average.

That's interesting since UofL was the only AAC offense to average 35 a game. Do 9 AAC offenses suck?

UL averaged 35 because you started with a total patsy of an OOC schedule. While UL was playing Ohio and Kentucky, UCF was playing South Carolina and Penn State. And UCF still managed to score 34 and 25 on those teams.

Just please admit that UL is NOT what their fans imagine themselves to be.

I'm not going to get into a back and forth on this. If you want to believe that Miami was a tremendous offense after losing Duke and others knock yourself out. All I'm saying is I follow them closely I used to be a Cane fan until USF started football and still live in Miami.
Go back and watch the VTech game, half their offense and 14 points came on two 80 plus yds bombs that they hit. UL played smart with a deep safety so if UM couldn't hit a deep bomb they were done because they couldn't run.
Look at my post on the game thread and even before it began I said I wouldn't be surprised if UL won big.
It was a good win but let's not get carried away with it. With that said I'm done on this thread carry on.

Everything you said basically has nothing to do with the topic at hand, which was Miami. Try to stick to the topic at hand next time.

The only thing Louisville fans have to imagine is that the team ended 2013 with a 12-1 Record and a likely Top 12-15 Final Ranking in both Human Polls for the 2nd straight year with momentum going into 2014.

Still trying to figure out how Coach Strong comments where about UCF...especially since he was playing Miami and Louisville is in recruiting battles with the Hurricanes and the fact that Louisville currently has 25 players from the Miami area.

I see it as telling DT Travonte Valentine, DE Chad Thomas, LB Mike Smith, S T.J. Harrell and others to look at Louisville instead of Miami...

It's not my fight but why would you build up the team you are recruiting against?

(12-29-2013 12:55 PM)whitey Wrote:  It's not my fight but why would you build up the team you are recruiting against?

Maybe because you just curb stomped that team...say how good they are on offense....hold them to one offensive TD and telling Defensive Recruits that both schools are recruiting how your coaching and player development help you stop that offense.

Build them up...beat them down...right now UofL is in Recruiting season...a lot of on campus visits coming up til signing day...

Strong's comments were just recruiting tactics. His words only mean something if you believe anything that comes out of his mouth. Strong probably won't ever come clean about the loss to UCF. But he knows how that loss wrecked his national championship bid, and so does anyone else with half a brain. Personally I don't need affirmation from Coach Strong to know the real score. Good luck in the ACC Louisville fans. You earned it. If possible could one of you provide some info on who will replace Bridgewater next year?

Yup....the only thing UCF should say to anyone talking smack is Scoreboard.

That why I can't say anything negative about UCF...you beat UofL in Papa John's...again it goes back to Scoreboard...for UofL fans on Rivals, Scout or 247 that try they need to get over it.

Actually....it did give UCF credit before the Cincinnati game in that game weekly presser....when the local media asked him about UCF he gave the Knight tons of credit including them being thisclose to being undefeated in their close loss to South Carolina...but that did t get played up..

Remember, Louisville and Miami are locked in recruiting battles right now over the same players...pumping them up after manhandling them...has nothing to do with UCF....has much more to do with UofL still trying to get Travonte Valentine, Chad Thomas and Mike Smith away from Miami...

Strong can say whatever he wants huh??? Well then I suppose UCF can say whatever they what about Louisville then right??? I mean if we are just making up arbitrary rules about who can say what and why. UCF put 38 up on Louisville, ON their turf, ON their homecoming, ON national TV. UCF is/was the best offense/team Louisville faced all season. Oh wait, that is in fact the truth, thats why UCF is the AAC champion and going to a BCS bowl unlike Louisville who had to settle for Orlando's lessor bowl against an unranked team.

Not my fight either, but your question still hasn't been addressed.

Doubt Charlie Strong is Butthurt...he makes around $4 Million a year and has a stellar record the past 2 years with a BCS Bowl win.
