Anyone know what the song is before first kickoff?

Some friends and I were talking about a hot topic (pun intended): shade for the bounce house. Is it even reasonably possible? To provide significant Shands for a fair portion of the crowd how realistic is that? Then cascade of items that may have to be altered or significantly changed to provide shade could include lighting, Jumbotron changes, sound systems, engineering, and sight lines were just a few items that came up. Is it even possible based on our configuration?

Let's recap the Cinci game...


EXCELLENT. ECU was a puzzle to me...there was consistency forming and it seemingly fell apart for ECU.

I still felt UCF could win at home against Cinci, and Julian and I were pretty close on our predictions. The final was 25-21, Julian predicted low with 20-17, and I predicted higher with 31-28. We both were close on the spread at -3, and the final spread was -4. Well done I feel...

Onto the Beale-Street Bengals...(Memphis)

Memphis Tigers Fun-Facts:

The University, similar to UCF, went through a name change from Memphis State University to University of Memphis as many know in 1994, but the school STARTED as West Tennessee State Normal School as a Teachers college in 1912.

Memphis awards about 3000 Doctorates annually.

The colors blue and grey were chosen as school colors to commemorate the "nation coming back together" after the civil war. Both colors represent the primary colors of both opposing armies in the Civil War.

Porter covers his visit with UCF for the Cincy game and gives an overall recruiting update:

With 3 blowout losses to AAC teams

not counting FAU which like a 60-40 Home game

Simple game. Call the first score by UCF. Winner gets name on the Wall of Fame and a pair of Coozies.​

Rules: you MUST call both the QB and receiver for passing scores along with the yardage. For all other scores RB, kickers, defenders, punt/ kick off returns you must call the yardage and the name of the player. Closest to the yardage wins. Price is right rules: If two people are exact yardage apart, closest without going over wins. You can only play once per account.

2022 Wall of Fame:

South Carolina State - Knights4lyfe

Louisville - tmbj#UCF (perfect call)

FAU - Justin6996

GA Tech - Reddog8132

SMU - greenvilleSC_knightfan

Temple - sjb43

ECU - Lhall24

Cincinnati - Nickiv2

Memphis - ?

Congrats to @Nickiv2 who makes the call of Boomer from 25 yds. Actual was Boomer from 26yds. DM me with address if you want the Coozies!

On right now. Washington’s stadium looks awesome and lighting literally creates no shadows on the field. Weren’t we supposed to play there at some point?*

So I've re-watched the game which allows me to focus on the lines and away from ball performance. Still have no idea what I'm seeing...
I appreciate that a typical issue with young QB's is learning to go through your progressions. So I spent some time trying to see if MK was looking defenders off. It seemed he was not, but I don't trust I know what I'm looking for. It appeared he was targeting his primary and making a quick good throw. So was it just that his primary was always open so he didn't have to go through progressions or was he just not going through them. Was it just good scheming by Gus?

Don't get me wrong, I think he did great and the OL gave great protection. Memphis is going to send the dogs, you can be sure of that. Does that mean quick read slants etc..

Thanks in advance...

Flight arrived about 20 minutes ago.

What the hell happened there? Where was MK? We had no QB to take the snap. Low chance but one bad snap/fumble/scope and score with only 10 men on the field would have sent this fan base into frenzy.

Good news our game should draw a lot of eyeballs, no other good games on at the same time. *

My kid just lost her 1st tooth. What's the going rate now a days from the tooth fairy? She says 100 but I feel like I am being hustled.

Great career. Consistently considered the greatest punter of all time. First pure punter to be drafted in the first round and first punter enshrined in the NFL HOF. Famously quoting in his acceptance speech "now the HOF has a complete team."

His first five years with the raiders he was their kicker and was their emergency QB throughout his career.

He was known for consistently have lengthy hang times where the kicking team could have caught the ball almost as easily as the return time.

Who can point me towards a good write up on each player and expectations? I know quite a few of them but so many new names!
