Are we still in this bowl? A new low for Gator Football. SMH
Normally when UF plays a bowl game in Florida the crowd is 65 35 pro Gators. I think it will be flipped to favor UCF in this one. They see it as an opportunity to kick the big dog while its down and gain cred for their program.Yes. Usually once they place you in a particular bowl game, it’s pretty much final that it’s the one you’re gonna be in.
They aren't that good either though, even by their standards.Normally when UF plays a bowl game in Florida the crowd is 65 35 pro Gators. I think it will be flipped to favor UCF in this one. They see it as an opportunity to kick the big dog while its down and gain cred for their program.
Yeah I hear ya! It hurts to even be discussing UCF as competitive with UF, hope it's short lived enthusiasm on their part.They aren't that good either though, even by their standards.
We do have 1 common opponent this year though.
USF
We beat them 42-20 (when AR was allowed to leave the bench)
They beat them 17-13 (end of November)
We hope. They will be playing with inspiration. We have a QB almost guaranteed to throw two INTs. We have no idea if our roster has enough pride left to want to win. They are so used to losing that, well, who knows? It will not be an excuse that UF was in between coaches and Dan Mullen had sabotaged the program for two seasons and..... It will not matter.Yeah I hear ya! It hurts to even be discussing UCF as competitive with UF, hope it's short lived enthusiasm on their part.
There’s just as good a chance it goes the other way. Not that many guys have left, and I think the younger players will view this as an audition for the new staff (and the cynical ones for if they later enter the transfer portal). I’m optimistic we see some great effort.With all the turmoil surrounding our program and all these players leaving us and recruits jumping ship, I don't see any way that we win this game. UCF is going to come in SKY HIGH to prove that they belong with the big name teams and will look to ROUT us to the tune of something like 36-17. Our guys gave up weeks ago and our guys will probably sleep walk through this game like the Okla game last season.
Zach Carter skipping the bowl game:
They’ll probably put up a state champions 2021 banner in their stadium, build a statue, have a parade, and airbrush a cop car. The Sentinel will publish story after story of how how the Knights have become the premier program in Florida. This is UCF. Delusion is what they do.

I would too if I were him
They're afraid of people jumping to avoid seeing it.They apparently aren't selling upper deck seats in Tampa for this one.

The brainiac is no longer on the sidelines.... that's a win.
