Good point! haha

Also, I guess my outlook is shaded by the fact that I truly believe that we are really really good. Like undeniably good. Everyone who knows me in California who knows at least one thing about me knows that I went to USF. Lol. And i've been trying to tell people since before the season that this is first time I haven't felt that familiar sense impending of disappointment.

WAS THAT BEN MOFFITT?

And, hey, I'm sorry if I sound critical of anyone being pessimistic here. I really do get the concern. Maybe because I was a sophomore in 2007, I refuse to be greedy! Every win is the best win.

Okay. I was legitimately asking. Forgot about that. Thx.

Has Cinci stopped us yet?

Well, if truly capable of considering the bigger picture than you might realize that whether we win by 3000 or by 3, neither matters as much as simply winning. Assuming both USF and UCF are undefeated when they meet, the winner will outrank the other, regardless of the rankings entering the game. So, why not just give it a cognitive respite and just enjoy one game at a time?

I get everyone's concerns about our performance relative to the rankings. But it just seems such a weird way to take in a game. I kinda favor the idea of just enjoying/hating these next two hours for what they are worth and leaving the periphery for later.

Serious question: Is everyone here as negative in real life as many are on the forum? I don't mean that facetiously. Just wondering if being online draws out more impatience than actually exists.

I just completed this quiz. My Score 8/100 My Time 172 seconds  

We tackle this year. Which, alone, is an improvement over past year's defenses.

We smashed a Big Ten team. After a hurricane. On like two days practice. And the first post I see here is one in which the commenter calls our coach "gutless". just. so. dumb.

Same here.

I think we're fine. I can live with the first quarter given the travel. We've seen this team not respond before, so I don't take this for granted. Coming home healthy is, to me, more important than running up the score.

Charlie Strong trending on twitter. Getting slaughtered. Lol. Make them eat it.
