IF we beat UCF is the season considered successful?

For us to win the last 2 and finish 5-3 in conference would constitute a success. I can't remember finishing with a better conference record then 4-3 in the last 10 years.

5-7 would be a successful season (in relative terms to building this program back up) in my book, regardless of whether we beat C. Florida or Memphis. 2-10 to 5-7 shows progress, and if we can beat a good team doing so (2 upcoming) I will be pleased. 

 

I was hopeful for 6-6 but that was an optimistic guess. 4-8 to 5-7 is a reasonable expectation, especially after seeing how we played our first few games.

If we're not going bowling this year, then I'm going "yes" on this one. Nothing would make me happier at this point than to mess with the Knights' end of season. My schadenfreude is strong against UCF.

schadenfreude...now that's a new one on me but entirely appropriate. Gold star, Paisa!

No. Success is winning a bowl game, having a winning record...Jeez, even a signature win. 5-7 with a win over mouse town is not a successful season. But we better beat those clowns.

This season was awful and a win over UCF doesn't change anything.  The teams we beat (not including the exhibition win over Western Carolina) are 4-24 thus far this year with 3 of those 4 wins against powerhouses Stony Brook, Tulane, and UCF with the last victory coming in the Tulsa-SMU game that somebody had to win by default.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    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.
