Most takes I agree with. Others have me scratching my head.
The experts must be thinking "4-loss Gus."Objective forecast I guess. I bet the over 7.5. UCF does have a favorable schedule this year.
UCF record on the Road with Malzahn gives a lot of concern for any road game.At Florida as a likely loss is enough to discredit him. That's a toss up
How much is that on Malzahn and how much on Heupel's anemic recruiting classes?UCF record on the Road with Malzahn gives a lot of concern for any road game.
2021 - 1-4, Beat Temple. Loss to Navy, Louisville, Cincy, SMU
2022 - 4-2 Beat FAU, Memphis, Tulane USF. Loss to ECU, Tulane
2023 - 2-4 Beat Boise State, Cincy. Loss to KSU, KU, Oklahoma, Texas Tech
Can’t blame Heupel. He won when here and winning at Tennessee. He’s been here long enough to need wins.How much is that on Malzahn and how much on Heupel's anemic recruiting classes?
I can forgive Gus for the earlier records, but he is on the clock starting this season. The Knights play at TCU, Florida, Iowa State, Arizona State, and West Virginia.
If Gus doesn't win one of those games, I will think about starting to doubt his ability to win on the road on the Big 12.
