How UCF Basketball doing well against tough opponents

[UCFProf]

UCF is 8th in nation (out of 350 schools) in defensive shooting percentage: 32.1%
It's especially stingy defending the 3-pt shot: only 23.0% (23 of 100) which is 13th in the nation.
It's scoring defense is ranked, too: 56.0 points per game, 14th best in the nation.
Dawkins has really brought a defensive focus to the Knights.

It helps f you don't jack up shots without much ball movement. Tank did that a few times.

4 games? If the season is over thats great. Lets collect more examples first. There's games to be played.

We have until post bowl game and then college sports won't matter until spring practice. The way this season has gone it seems like last week was the last game of the season. If we fall flat against USF, then I'll consider this season a meh. Especially if it's four quarters of Milton playing poorly.

Seriously, basketball is people playing a fun game where referees decide the winner. It's mostly unwatchable.

College ball is not NBA.

College ball is not NBA.

It is at Kentucky and a few other one and done schools. 'Nova was short handed as are we. But their pump fakes were insane. And there were a half dozen NBA bodies on the court between the two sides. There is one difference of course. Nobody's watching the NBA anymore. College football and basketball have stolen the excitement back. And unlike college football, it ain't rigged in favor of P-5 teams from day 1. Any team can still win it all, even with 10 or more losses going into March madness.

Was commenting more towards the refs controlling outcomes. But people most definitely are watching NBA. It has to be 2nd most popular sport in world to watch.
