It might be time for UCF to retire the Gus Bus
It's starting to putter out. Gus Malzahn's UCF tenure may have hit a new low Saturday afternoon in a 19-13 home loss against Cincinnati. The same Cinciannti team that went 3-9 last year and won just one game in Big 12 play.Malzahn is now 9-10 since UCF's move to the Big 12, with a 4-8 showing against conference foes. The Golden Knights weren't expected to compete immediately, but it isn't promising that they're showing signs of regression under a 58-year old head coach.
UCF should be set up well in the Big 12. Its unique position as the conference's only representative in Florida gives it an inherent advantage in talent acquisition. Saturday's result -- and the last month, really -- raise serious doubts about Malzahn's ability to fully capitalize on that.
