UCF Football: Kickoff Countdown

[craig01]

Spring game was yesterday.

Storm Johnson showed some flash, Murray played well too.

WR Perrimman reminds me of former Redskin great Art Monk. Had a couple of drops, but presents a physical target. Should be fun to watch mature,,,

Miami plays FSU this weekend without their best player who's injured. Here's hoping FSU wins the series, if not sweeps. Miami has a lot of home games the rest of the way and UCF needs them to stumble to have a legit shot at hosting a regional, despite the top 10 ranking (because 4 regionals in Florida is unlikely).

But even after that, it's really going to come down to when we host Rice to end the season. Gotta win that series.

In basketball news, UCF got a commit from a 6'10 340lb center. Big boy. he's trying to lose weight but it'll be nice to have a legit big dude down low (providing he actually comes here).

Does UCF's stadium meet the minimum seats required for the NCAA?

I thought the minimum was around 3K.....I might be wrong

[UCF]

I thought with the recent expansion we would be close to 3K?

[craig01]

I think it's short of that.......but I don't really know.....and I would love to see UCF host a regional.

It's too bad that FSU and UF are also rocking this year as well.

UCF is 32-8 now, absolutely fantastic.

[UCFJayBird]

we can host a regional, but not a super regional (which hopefully with the next round of upgrades we will).

UCF won again today in extra innings while Miami lost to FSU. A sweep tomorrow with a sweep by FSU and UCF should have a great shot at hosting.

[craig01]

33-8 speaks volumes.

[UCFJayBird]

we swept, fsu swept miami, and to top it off Rice dropped a game. We're sitting at #1 in C-USA outright and now have a tremendous shot at hosting. Just can't let up and give doubters any reason whatsoever to take it from us. Rice series is, of course, going to be huge.

UCF plays Memphis this weekend at home. Time to pack the berg.

Things have been set up very well.

Let's get the job done!

UCF #14 in the Baseball America poll and #7 in the ESPN/Coaches poll.

I heard Godfrey is back?

[UCFJayBird]

Indeed. He's coming back as a WR and will be used in wildcat type situations. Going to make the offensive playbook interesting. Plus if something does happen to Bortles and Gabbert isn't ready or gets hurt as well we can always put him back at QB. Adds much needed depth.

Also rumor has it that JJ Worton will be back and might not receive any suspension or anything. The charges are likely to be dropped because apparently the police report was highly exaggerated and there was no punch. The cop is probably in more trouble than JJ.

Josh Robinson goes #66 overall to the Vikings. Wish he would've gone late 1st early 2nd, but can't be too upset with early 3rd. He was also the first player drafted from the state of Florida this year. Absolutely crazy that there wasn't a 1st or 2nd rounder from UF, FSU or UM this year.

UCF beat Memphis 4-3, taking their record to 35-8.

Amazing.
