Tulsa game thread
- Thread starter SimpleJack53
- Start date
Just for perspective before people jump off a cliff, Tulsa failed to beat SMU and Memphis based on miracles. Cincy barely beat them by being +5 in turnovers.
We know. We just lost to that 2 win team.
I feel just peachy now
Must be what a USF fan feels like every week
Heupel is clearly in over his head. His best defensive players are fighting each other, he can’t win games that aren’t blowouts, and can’t even manage a simple 4th and short!
I love Danny White, but Heupel has turned into a losing bet very quickly. Only reason we have won so much in past two years is because of really great Scott Frost recruiting classes.

when you have a true freshman you lift him up when he has these moments, you shift gears with Mack for a drive, you put him in a position where the Defense isn't pinning their ears back on 3rd down after selling out on the run on the first 2 downs.
DG had a terrible 2nd half but if you think he is the only issue here idk what to tell you
Well they didn't fail to beat us.
Yes sir! You never fight on the FIELD with your own team!!! If you do... umm well you either dont have a team or you dont have a leader.
one of the biggest signs of bad coaching: Not covering. UCF has been terrible ATS this season
Holy hell do I know about this. Heupel owes me money.
Hes also 18 and a freshman. An athlete no doubt but you can see the fear in his eyes. That's where a true coach follows through.
I usually don't bet on my own team but 2017 season was just easy money that I had to a few times, destroyed the spread that season
Gabriel made some great throws but he was not the same after they ripped his head off. They should have played Mack for a possession not just one play.
Didn't see this one coming. Felt the team turned a bit of a corner at Temple, but it didn't last.
If I’m Mack I’m gone. Screw watching these losers burn my years
Why decommit? A lot of starting positions just opened up
I mean it's crazy talk and not happening but he has 8-4 written all over him, maybe the floor won't get Charlie Strong bad but it's tough to see him as a coach that can get us to the NY6 every other year
when the FSU job opened and Heup was listed on the odds I saw someone post about his contract that it is 1 sided and UCF friendly but I don't know if it is accurate. If someone hired Heup before the Bowl game UCF is owed a $10 Mil buyout but if UCF fires him before 2021 we owe 50% of his remaining contract and I think no buyout on top of that. I'm assuming it becomes more expensive to fire him after 2021 in that new deal
After seeing Wimbush run the ball on the double reverse, he seemed to have lost a step. While I dont doubt him being a good teammate, I doubt he has the same motivation as he did in 2017.
So much talent, but the results are not showing it. This game was lost in all 3 phases...
Well not until we lose to USF at least and/or start next season 0-3 or 1-2.
agreed but he has been radio silent on everything Football. basically nothing Football related since doing media interviews during the Pitt week about UCF not getting enough respect. found it a bit odd.
I know he wants UCF to stay in the National Picture
Y’all are lame. Who’s getting drafted on this team? Gabe Davis (who I personally think is overrated) and maybe Jordan Johnson? It’s not like we’re Bama. We recruit the same as the rest of our conference and a regression to the norm was bound to happen. We struck gold with Milton but that doesn’t happen often, just ask USF. Look at the future most of our team is young and I see a bright future.
At least this loss came when we had already fallen off the map a bit. Imagine the trolls coming our way if this was the loss to break the streak.
yeah the trolling from the SEC is gone at this point when you are at loss 3 with an AAC East schedule

We have an incredible amount of talent on this team but the same few keep being used in the same unimaginative ways. If something is not working after you’ve tried it repeatedly, try something new. We’re loaded with running backs with differing talents, little used tight ends (although it has improved the last couple games), passing lanes forgotten (remember slant routes?), no under center QB sneaks on 4th and 1, even though we have TWO QBs over 220! Open up the playbook!
Not sure why trolls would come here when we are slamming ourselves more than they could ever do. Same reasons the NGEbraska board was boring this week. Can’t say things that are any worse than they are
Jesus, man. You'd think people on this board never saw college football games outside of our own 2017 and 2018 seasons. It's a younger team struggling to win road games with a true freshman QB. It happens again, and again, and again, and again, and again at every program in the country.
Heup in close games:
Win 31-30 @Memphis
Lost 40-32 @ Fiesta Bowl (playing a game of this magnitude with a backup QB is "sub-optimal")
Lost 35-34 @Pitt
Lost 27-24 @Cincy
Lost 34-31@Tulsa
***Common theme: Inexperienced/young teams or key players struggle on the road***
***Last time we played with a inexperienced/young team or key players was 2016. We went 6-7. Consequently, we were 3-3 at home and 3-3 on the road. Our road wins were: FIU, ECU, and UConn, which isn't saying much.
