#32 ain't bad for preseason. At least we are on the radar. A couple wins and a couple losses above us and we move into the top 25 in week 3.

We gotta keep in mind we all have black-n-gold goggles on tight this time of year. We all hearing pro UCF propaganda. I've gone off and listened to some other teams preseason press releases and we all gonna go undefeated and win the National Championship this year!

With that said, Go Knights and go win a National Championship this year!
 
Id say its a pretty fair ranking, maybe slightly higher than I was expecting. I was thinking closer to 35-38 to start the season considering the LB question marks and offense consistency.

Yeah, for preseason - I think it’s very fair. From the outside looking in, you have questions surrounding the QB position, one of the program’s most talented receivers transferred out, the leader of the LB room transferred, and two veteran OL need to be replaced.

I know we all are very excited and eager to see all the guys UCF brought in blossom into players, but again - I think that ranking is more than fair (all things considered).

I thought the UCF marketing folks really pushed the brand as UCF during the Big 12 meetings. I see the polls still list us as Central Florida. I wonder how they are they are taking it?
