That’s more than fair, I would have UCF at 17th and us at 18 but it I’ll take it. I’m sorry for being negative. I appreciate what coach strong has done for our defense but overall I just don’t think h

Our undefeated season thus far is a fraud! (Pardon me Mitt Romney.) It has been achieved against relatively bad football teams. True, we can only play who is in front of us. But a top twenty ranking f

What a bunch of whiney comments.  Our team hasn't scored less than 30 points in the equivalent of two years, our defense is leaps and bounds beyond last year and our offense finds a way with an entirely new scheme.  

 

This isn't the gulf coast offense anymore.  It's the offense that scores more than the other team.  

 

We just beat a conference opponent who runs a unique offense, at there house when they were completely pumped up to play us and we were sleep walking through the whole game. Good teams beat bad teams even when they aren't playing well. If you haven't been a fan long you might not know this, but we usually loose a game or five to teams we should beat.  That's not happening yet.  Have a drink, rewatch the game and thank your stars we have Q.

The good thing is that our remaining games will help strengthen our SOS. Meanwhile, UCF are playing cupcakes til they play us... 

 

There should be no chance that they outrank us as long we win.

This team deserves to be ranked. The players have done a good job. Coach Strong has done a good job refining the team.

All of this is opinion. Do we deserve to be ranked? For the most part we've beat down a bunch of bad teams. In some cases we should have beat them down worse. Is the below worthy of a team ranked #5 in the country? That's Wisconsin's resume to date. I'm not that impressed but I guess somebody has to be #5.

59-10 over Utah State (4-4)

31-14 over FAU (4-3)

40-6 over BYU (1-7)

33-24 over Northwestern (4-3)

38-17 over Nebraska (3-4)

17-9 over Purdue (3-4)

38-13 over Maryland (3-4)

Didn't Purdue lose to Rutgers?  Not a real impressive resume.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.

    “In my mind, I’m kind of like, ‘OK, excuses over'. We know what we need to do. We’ve got the right team together, and now we move forward, and we’ll evaluate and be accountable to each other, including myself, from this point forward.”
