[Central Floridave]

Just checked my Seminole Gaming App and looking at NCAA football betting futures. Here is what is listed:

to win Big 12
Utah +350
Kansas State +375
Kansas +700
Arizona +800
Texas Tech +1000
UCF +1200
Iowa State +1200
Oklahoma State +1300

Baylor +6000
Cincinnati +7500

National Champs

UCF +20000

A dollar bet for UCF to win NC wins 201. A dollar bet for UCF to win Big12 wins 13.

Besides UCF, I'd gamble on OKST. I picked them to win the Big12 last season and think they'll continue to roll.

....even though we curb-stomped them, jeh.

 

[Central Floridave]

I was surprised Okie-state was below us in the odds.

I'm glad that Vegas is giving us somewhat a chance. will be interesting closer to the season start how the odds change as they gather more info.

the Black Friday (Nov 29th), Utah at UCF will be a huge game if the Utes are in the running. (and, by the grace of the football gawds UCF is as well).

conference odds seem low considering we are back to back offseason champs. Not impressed by Booms?

Some of our best years have come when we were picked further down in the pecking order.

[Ace of Knights]

I took UCF over 7.5 regular season games. 8 wins should be the absolute bare floor with this team and schedule. But honestly anything less than nine wins with a healthy Jefferson and I’ll be pissed.

 

[Central Floridave]

I took over 7.5 also.

UCF starts 2-0.
@TCU Don't know which way will go.
Colorado UCF wins at home
@Florida Toss up.
Cincinnati UCF Win
@Iowa State prob Iowa State
BYU -UCF win
@ArizSt -UCF win
@WVU -toss up
Utah -prob the utes

That's 6 wins that I think we will win for sure. (knock on wood)
Means need two wins our of 5 of TCU, Florida, IowaState, WVU, Utah.

I'm thinking TCU should be a win with the two warm up games. By game 3 UCF should be settled in.

Thus, need 1 win out these 4. Florida, Iowa State, WVU, UTAH.

UTAH and Florida are higher ranked teams. So let's focus on Iowa State and WVU. Revenge game for WVU. Who knows though.

Or, it could go all wrong. Just speculating. I only put a dollar for over 7.5 wins. Not totally invested!

Go Knights!

I'm thinking TCU should be a win with the two warm up games. By game 3 UCF should be settled in.

That will be the key game, team has really struggled on the road. Particularly the rush defense, it was essentially non existent (6.5+ ypc). By the end of the season there will be hits to the depth chart, but if they can't beat TCU on the road with a team that should be healthy (barring Malzahn having starters in the 4th quarter in a 30-40 point game against cupcakes) its going to be hard to win any toss up games.

Don't think like Lit. Lit thought he had to fart but instead he had to...

TCU, Florida, and maybe Arizona are the only definite losses on the schedule.

I give UCF less than a 20% chance against TCU and Florida.

 

[Central Floridave]

Arizona has an entire new coaching staff and they are playing UCF Space Game. UCF don't lose space games.

Plus, look at the odds when I first posted them. Arizona at 4th, UCF #6 in best odds to win conference. now, today, that is switched up and UCF is at 4 and Arizona at #6. What changed? Maybe with time the oddsmakers are getting more intune with the teams. Maybe media days helped with UCF perception. Dunno...

But, UCF don't lose Space Games. (knock on wood).

Overall, we really can't say any game is winnable as any given Saturday a team can lay an egg. UCF has before and will again I'm sure.
