I do believe it is, but upon further look, it seems the Bulls have 90 total more rushing yards than UCF-so you have that.  That said, their SOS is 48th in the country, yours is 67th.  Also, their rushing defense is 33rd in the country, yours is 110th.  I personally believe they will run all over you, like most everyone else has.  Now, the question is, how well will your running game do against one of the best running defenses in the country? If you win that game, it will be in the air imo.  

 

Calling people stupid because they disagree is childish, and reflects poorly upon your fanbase.  There is objective reasoning to believe X running game is better than Y running game in this case, I even posed a reasonable way to beat the X team.

We're certainly vulnerable to the run, but we certainly tightened up the 2nd half of Cincy. There are several sources that show SOS, but you didn't cite yours (unless its an opinion).  The one I checked has us pretty close.

Here's why he won't show you where he's getting that SOS. It's coming from here, and "is based solely on a team’s opponents’ win/loss record from the previous season", which is pretty meaningless to this conversation. Sagarin has our schedule ranked 75 and UCF's 85. This one has us at 48 and UCF 55.

I know he got a little rankled when apparently someone called him stupid but with this SOS stuff and then some of the other erroneous data he's been trying to shovel in this thread, he really is, thinks we are, or is just trolling.

Realtime says UCF's is 51 and USF's is 174, all based on opponents this year

If he was smart he would have used that one. Seems kind of ridiculous considering the closeness of the other 2, though.

That seems absurd to leave after one season, but who knows! There could be a lot of major job openings at the end of the year. 

he would have left after one game if oregon came calling

Petrino left after one season. The only way this is for the east title is breaking a potential tie with Temple, UCF won't be the in the running.

Too early to tell.  One game at a time. It won't matte if it is for the east title, the USFvsUCF game will be a battle.

Petrino is an *******, not everyone is like him.

Not only that, his defenses seem to get weaker the longer he stays.  Offensive genius but he losses games because of that defense.

Both of us are undefeated in conference play currently. So there's that.
