Next year outlook assuming Strong stays:

UCF-Frost gone, likely will take a step back. 

ECU/Cincinnati/Uconn-all still rebuilding. ECU needs a new coaching staff. Uconn played better as the season went on. 

Temple may be tough again. 2nd year coach in place, they improved as the season went on (they beat navy) and may finish this year bowl eligible. This year was their rebuilding year. 

We play Houston and Tulsa in the road. Will be tough. 

I think we could go at least 6-2 in conference again.

I agree.  I've said it before, I think next years team will surprise a lot of people

I also think Memphis may lose their coach. Won’t directly effect us next year, but could mean wins for our division teams who play them.

Crazy to think our east division record over the past 3 years is almost immaculate and we still havent won the division.  Frustrating statistic.

Exactly. Sports are just funny I guess. The dominoes either land in your favor, or not. In our case they haven’t.

Again why is 2-10 Tulsa a concern?

Because both years we have lost to the division winner. 

 

Temple plain beat us...

UCF could have gone either way. The penalties, no-calls, and special teams were a disaster so we failed.

Last year was probably our best chance. Hope CCS can build something next year.

It is frustrating as hell.  UCF deserves the credit for what they became.  When you have your destiny in your hands you have to finish.  

We lose in the most improbable ways.  Think about this.  How bizarre is it to lose on a 4th and 24 conversion.How often is that converted?  Once every ten years?

Our QB accounted for over 600 yards today.  That is Heisman stuff...and we lose.  It was a typical USF loss.  one player rises above all else only to come up short

We are to college sports as Cleveland is to professional sports.  Lots of heartbreak year in year out in most sports.

 

it is horrible

orlando made the plays when they had to and usf didnt

i would have been happy with a division title

    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.
