Would you rather Mikey Keene lead us to win against usf or win CCG? I think I’m more happy with Mikey securing our last game against usf. Yes a big bowl would be nice but could’ve been smoked.

WOT: Dungeon Gamer Discord server

I created a discord server for all gamers on the board. It was posted in the video game thread but figured I’d make a new thread for anyone that hasn’t been keeping up with that thread.

*PLEASE NOTE. This is not a dungeon discord server. It’s a gaming (of the video kind not the gambling kind) discord server with dungeon members.

The Phantom Red Wave

So many republicans are dead from Covid. Enough to swing some of the closer races. They ain't coming back. The gap is going to continue to grow until republican policies change. Young people ****ing hate the GOP policies and more of them will be 18 in the next 2 years.

The next presidential candidate they run will still be anti abortion. Will still atack the friends of young people. Will still choose corporate interests over workers. It will be a blood bath again. I don't know how long gerrymandering can keep the illusion of things being close but eventually republicans will need to accept their identity crisis or accept irrelevance.

I'd say drop the bull shit culture wars and focus on economic policies. If republicans didn't spend so much time attacking the most vulnerable in our society they might be able to make some in roads with the younger generation. Young people all have gay friends. They all have trans friends. They all think women should be in control of their bodies. They won't turn their back on those people for any supposed economic policy edge. How many elections will it take for that to sink in?

To all the Keene haters...

I sure see a lot of fans without wins casting stones at the Giant Killa, who finished his career 8-3 (727%) as a starter at UCF.

What more does he have to prove? What more can be asked of him?

He beat Florida last year.

He came off the bench to lead come-from-behind victories against Cincinnati and South Florida this year. And he won the Memphis game.

He completed 72% of his passes and had a 6-to-1 TD to INT ratio.

He was undefeated in high school and won two straight state titles at the highest level of football in Arizona.

Still, he gets disrespected...

The cold hard truth is Keene should not have been on the bench for the first SIX games of the season. I don't recall but a select few clamoring to "put him in" back then. Y'all all the sudden wanted him to come off the bench and waste a year of eligibility in a game he arguably could not have won had he started.

The cold hard truth is without Keene the UCF would have been watching the AAC title game (like Keene and a lot of Knight defenders did today).

Don't blame Keene.


The annals of UCF football history will remember Keene as a hero.

WOT: Connecting Soundbar to Apple TV and TV

I can usually noodle these things out, but brain no work good right now.

Just purchased a Vizio V51-H6 Soundbar with 2 surround speakers and subwoofer. I am trying to connect it to my Apple TV and TV. I have a Roku Smart TV, but I prefer the interface that Apple TV offers. Most importantly, so does my wife. I have an AppleTV 4th Generation. No optical out. The soundbar has 1 HDMI port and an optical port. My TV has 3 hdmi ports, 1 optical, ethernet and RCA ports.

I am currently using the optical port on the TV for blutooth headphone connection.

My gut is telling me that I'll need to lose the headphones, connect the optical from the tv to soundbar and connect hdmi from tv to the Apple TV.

Suggestions? Get a new TV? Burn the place down?

Thanks in advance!!

Shareholder?

Last night I received a few texts from one of my bosses that the game was playing on the team's (hes is in the NBA) plane and all his teammates were ranting and raving about the jerseys. He followed up just now about how to buy one. I told them they are sold out (thanks for that info @San Diego Knight )! His next text- "lets become a shareholder to get on that email distro. I want anything with the Citronaut on it!" This guy has no ties to UCF besides me-- but that shows you how impressive those jersey were.

Now can anyone point me in the direction to send him info on becoming a shareholder?

2022 Bowl Rankings

14. Military Bowl: Duke (8-4) vs. UCF (9-4)​

Dec. 28, 2 p.m. ET, ESPN

Mike Elko has done a heck of a job in his first season at Duke. The Blue Devils won four of their past five games and beat Miami and Wake Forest in that stretch. Four different players have rushed for over 400 yards for the Blue Devils while QB Riley Leonard has thrown for 20 TDs and rushed for 11 more. UCF is 9-4 for a second straight season under Gus Malzahn but lost to Tulane in the AAC title game. The Knights, who also had a late-season loss to Navy, will hope QB John Rhys Plumlee is fully healthy for this one. Plumlee is one of the best running QBs in the country.

Should Redshirt Option be extended to 5 games for teams that play 13 or more games?

Should Redshirt Rule be increased to 5 games for teams that play in 13 or more games?

  • Yes..extended seasons shoukd also included extra Redhsirt Game appearance

    Votes: 5 71.4%
  • No...keep it at 4 games...even if teams play in up to 17 games

    Votes: 2 28.6%

With some teams playing 15 games (even up to 17 games with new expanded CFP), should the Redshirt Rule be expanded from 4 to 5 games so players woukdnt lose a year of eligibility?

The main reason for the up to 4 game played redshirt rule was that it was only 33% of a 12 game season but with teams like UCF playing in 14 games (teams that made it to Cobf Champ Game and Bowl Game) or if UGA, UM or TCU make it to CFP Champ Game would be 15 games...should those teams allow a player to Redshirt if they play in 5 games in said season?

This might help avoid situations that UCF encountered last week plus other teams that won't be able to use players in their bowl game or CFP if others get injured (or quit).

OT: Knoxville trying to stop alcohol sales in Neyland Stadium


Wut?

"...the city is aiming to halt beer sales at a minimum of three Tennessee home games in the 2023 season, with the possibility of discontinuing Aramark’s license all together. "

"If Cravens determines that the stadium is being operated in disorderly fashion, the city wants total cancellation of Aramark’s alcohol license. However, if the stadium is not proven to be disorderly, Knoxville leaders are seeking a 60-day suspension, or the minimum of three football games at Neyland Stadium in 2023. "

UCF getting in the mix for current commitment's brother?

Some have wondered whether UCF would be interested in pursuing Jonas Duclona, who is the brother (but not twin) of recent CB commit Jason Duclona. He was a longtime commitment to Cincinnati, but decommitted after Luke Fickell left for Wisconsin.

I messaged Jonas to ask if there's any UCF interest and he said UCF hasn't really communicated with him all that much. He did say he has set up an official visit to Wisconsin for this upcoming weekend. Which obviously makes sense because of Fickell. Looks like we can cross this one off the list.

FWIW, I always heard UCF was obviously very interested in Jason but not as much in Jonas.

Seems like a Memphis vs UCF reunion in Orlando. Cheez-it Bowl OU vs FSU

The two competed in the American Athletic Conference together in 2019 when Norvell was at Memphis and Gabriel was at UCF. Norvell said he has always been impressed with Gabriel's capabilities.

“He’s an extremely talented quarterback, and you see the way that he's played this year, he just continues to get better,” Norvell said. “His vision, his talent, the things that he can do, it just has that natural playmaking ability that shows up. Throughout the course of the game, I think they do a great job in their offensive scheme and try to utilize their personnel... it's going to be a wonderful challenge for our defense.”
