The 2007 team lost to 4 unranked teams if I remember correctly. Elon & FAU kept it close with us also. None of those teams wipe the floor with this year's UCF team IMO. We were really good for the first half of the 2007 season, but inconsistent outside that. We were destroyed by an unranked Rutgers in 2008 (49-16 at home), and 2009 (31-0). From 2006-2009, we were what our record said we were, a 4 or 5 loss team in one of the weaker BCS conferences.

LOL It amazes me by how awesome some fans make the older teams out to be. the older teams were good, but not deep which always hurt us at the 2nd half of the season or in the 2nd half of games.Some of those teams may have had a few better starters but the teams were not deep. This by far is our deepest team. Put this defense with last year's offense and we would have been unstoppable.

They also faced Ray Rice and Jonathan Stewart!

But hey...bring back CJL!  Blowout losses to Rutgers was right about when I started losing confidence in The Jim.

Rice started his habit of beating by single-handedly beating us.

Pulled this from tulsa's banter board...notice the bottom likes.

1. 
   USF is good but it appears that some of AAC teams have started figuring out Strong and his approach on both sides of the ball and by watching tape of Texas and Louisville from past years. Apparently Strong does not adapt or adjust.

Very disturbing to read from a competitor's board.  Many of us think we've been outed and, now, so does the competition.

Meh ... that statement alone from a message board doesn't strike fear into my heart as evidence that our coaches have been "figured out."  Kind of like ambienknights saying, "trust me guys, Frost has already turned down the UF job."

I would agree with you if it wasn't so easy to figure us out from the stands.

I could figure out that last year, on third and anything short of 6, it was QF RPO... every single time, but, knowing what was coming and stopping Flowers from moving the chains is a different game. If Stong lets him play, I don't care if you know whats coming, stopping Quinton is not an easy task.

Yeah, this is pretty much my point.  And hopefully, we get "UConn QF" if the next couple teams we play make Quinton throw.  He got in a groove in that game - hopefully that bodes well for us moving forward.

2007 team is the ONLY one to shine on national tv, once, when it counted, then turds. Not my definition of great.

Was Auburn not nationally televised?

Yes, but on ESPN, not one of the over-the-air-networks

But they didn't start on time, they showed another game until it was done, then cut over to USF-Auburn sometime after the first score

Wasn't WVU on a Friday night, so that wasn't on an over-the-air network either, was it?
