Michigan Football Schedule Preview (with their view of UCF)
- Thread starter UCFProf
- Start date
Thanks. Very interesting. Quite clueless actually until the last paragraph. I'm hoping for a game that's not over by halftime. At least they give us more respect than Hawaii
Michigan's fan base does not like UCF's new head coach. I think they will run up the score because of him.
If they don't like our coach, then that's a good thing IMO. This is football and we aren't trying to make friends. I'm sure this has all to do with the signing day party/festivity comments made by Frost, because Frost is a good guy. So the fan base is being too sensitive. Anyway, it's OK to be known, relevant and hated. UCF was irrelevant in 2015 and that sucks. We will soon be relevant again and more.
I didn't know a fan base had the ability to "run up the score" since they aren't actually playing. I hope Harbough has more class, but I think he's known to do this from his NFL days.
Better days ahead, as the UCF team and offense that Frost envisions will be wearing down teams and having the ability to run up scores in its own right if Frost does that type of thing.
I've seen Oregon completely destroy teams with him as OC.
I hope for Michigan's sake, that UCF offense comes later more than sooner, because even a reasonably close game will be a national embarrassment for Michigan.
Agree with everything except this last part. Our unknown upstart days are long over, when our win at Bama would immediately get their coach fired. A recent Fiesta Bowl winner from a good conference is always respectable enough that a somewhat close score is merely regarded as an off day rather than astonishment.
I'm not sure that many around the country see it like we do. It's all about perception. To many, we were an 0-12 team, playing in a G5 conference and were the worst team in college football in 2015. Many fans think this thing will be a blowout with
almost 0 chance of a close game, I
mean under 20 points. They think we are barely a step above Hawaii, and maybe we are at this point. Who really knows. I'm curious to see what the point spread will be.
