That and the 2 picks in Pitt territory. One in the end zone.
I feel like we are all jumping ship to quickly here. We had a chance to win that game by 10 points. We just didn’t play a good game today and lost a heartbreaker. It’s happens...
I’m kind of actually tired of the UCF media local media buying into this cartel talk. They have been asking our coaches and players a lot about the disrespect from the national football media and like we should be so grateful to play the likes of Standford and Pitt. Stop asking our players about do we belong amongst the best teams in the country. Yes we do, we are one of the best teams in country still.
I want our team and players to be confident in our identity. I want our coaches and players to start saying that we believe we have a P5 level program and we have proven it on the field. And UCF doesn’t have to go undefeated every year as a requirement to be worthy of being called a P5 level program. If that were the case 60% of teams in Major conference should be relegated.
As DW has said we are building a powerhouse and we as team and fanbase can’t let the media or other fan bases get in our heads. We expect to win that’s why we need to push we are a P5 level program.
We hung a National Championship Banner in our stadium and now we are going to back down and go run and hide. Huepel is acting scared and the players followed his lead in the Pitt game. He wasn’t confident. Huepel didn’t have plan B, C D today on offense. He and Libby have been telling us that all the QB are talented and they have faith in all of them. Why didn’t we see more of BW with the option game today. BW still could have made big plays down the field also with his arm. Huepel wasn’t prepared to take back control of this game. And I honestly believe we had the personnel to do it he just didn’t prepare for those scenarios in this game.
I don’t want to hear nothing else about disrespect or a chip on our shoulder. Players should just say we train hard, study our opponents and we expect to win the game.
UCF and local media guys and gals. Stop talking to our coaches and players like we should be so grateful or humbled by playing teams in Major Conferences. We have played big teams for years and beat them. You are part of the problem as well. Our guys need to be focused on the game, ask football on the field questions. Not stuff that causes controversy or helps you get clicks. Let the National media do that. Don’t do that to our guys in local coaches and players interviews.
I’ve listened to the Boise Media and they don’t ask their coach and players these kind of questions. Does Boise belong and do they feel pressure to win. They talk to them like they are a P5 level program. Talk about the match ups, environment, strategy, individual player development, health of the player, etc.
Our local and UCF media can do better as well.
