Hope they are prepared to eat a lot of crow! I'm feeling something special is coming.Initial ESPN FPI gives UCF a 3.3% chance to win conference
For the first time this offseason, ESPN has released its preseason Football Power Index (FPI) for the 2021 college football season and UCF has slim chances to win the
Ouch...FPI used to love us. No faith in us now, can’t say I blame them but 6th?!!! And TULANE?!!!!
They lost me when they listed Tulane @ #2 for AAC. I agree too, feel like this year has a very different feel right now.
I must admit that it's understandable that they are not believing. While his "strong suit" is supposedly his accuracy, he completed 60.0 % of passes in 2020 ,which is 67th place of all FBS qbs. Yes he was 5th in FBS in how many yards passing he racked up, but he passed 413 times to obtain those yards. Only 8 of the 66 qbs ahead of him on the completion % list threw more that 350 passes, and only 22 threw more than 300 passes. So what we got was a lot of passing attempts, leading to a lot of yards, but not a lot of consistency as compared throughout the FBS qb community.

Right. Let’s not forget Huepel’s one dimensional offense was a direct correlation with the low completion percentage. KZ even took a big hit in efficiency in the turd’s scheme. Throw a 3-3-5 at em and call it a day, teams with better defense could stop us. Also, that same offensive approach and poor Huepel recruiting (LB specifically) left our defense tired and in the toilet. Big backs, good tight end or scrambling QB and the defense was toast. DG was just trying to make it happen with the poor game plan and leadership he had. Let’s not forget all the drops the WRs had in big moments, or the inability to kick a FG, or not kick a FG and go for it getting stuffed on a run up the middle.
Basically the same assessment of Heupel. Calling the same plays and not adapting or coming up with anything creative to throw off the defenses. Oh a 0 half time adjustments. I think DG willl thrive with our new coaching staff.I must admit that it's understandable that they are not believing.

Additionally, ESPN may not believe because, against the better defenses in our conference, Cincy, Memphis and Tulsa, in two years running he is 0-5. He has yet to beat either of those 3 programs. And his completion % is lower and turnovers are higher in those important games. Maybe this is what ESPN was looking at.
I do agree that he has been stellar against lower level opponents. However, If we are to be honest with ourselves, I feel we must admit that we need him to step up against better opponents, especially those within our conference. He has the skills, so he needs to more consistently deliver them in the critical games.
