It's unlikely that the Longhorns will still be in the league when UCF joins, but it would be awesome if they are and I can watch my two teams play.

Read on Twitter

Texas and OU are going to pay up if they don’t want to be there when we arrive.

Exciting. I will enjoy seeing Baylor - UCF regularly.

Here comes a wave of recruits signing to UCF now just like when some people were waiting for Pfizer FDA full approval to get vaccinated!!! Some recruits waiting for the official word of UCF joined the big 12 just like some people waiting for the official annoucement of Pfizer FDA full approval.

I expect we go back to recruiting Texas again like we did back in the GOL days.

This is a good conference for football but it's not the best conference, but basketball I think it is the best conference.

Kansas is a lot stronger in basketball than football
Baylor was just in the national championship
Oklahoma State had Cade Cunningham the #1 overall draft pick

Most to all these teams (Baylor, Texas Tech, Kansas State, West Virginia) are top 25 teams or hang around the top 25 ranking every year. The only team that don't seem to be good is TCU and Kansas(Football). UCF, Houston, BYU and Cincinnati all seem to be top 25 teams or close to it in both football and basketball

A big step in the right direction! Hopefully this helps with recruiting as well

Anyone have an idea what this means to the program as far as TV $?

And in no surprise the AAC is has said they're perfectly willing to negotiate buyouts to leave early.

Here comes the Florida vs Alabama game and I've been waiting to attend this game for months.

This dude Isiaah Bowser is looking like the MVP of the team, We need him to produce these numbers vs Boise State against Cincinnati, Memphis and Tulane. I only stayed for the 1st half and I yelled BOWSER a lot throughout the 1st half and he scores 3 TD'S on Bethune Cookman lol.

Just think UCF football is going to make an extra $20million a year minimum just going to the big 12.

Good to see UCF is able to stop the run for once. Solid beat down as it should be

In another world - wtf FSU

Our secondary needs to get better, that's really the only area of concern right now for the team. When we go up against teams with a really good QB it's going to get tough to keep them off the scoreboard because the secondary just gets picked apart. It would also help if the front seven could get to the QB a little quicker. They've gotten close to a LOT of sacks but either gotten there a half step late or missed the tackle. The run defense has been phenomenal though.

UCF is 26th in the AP this week. A win over Louisville should get us into the Top 25. Hope the team brings their A game. A nice bye week afterwards before conference play gets under way.

Why were we trying to get cute on 4th on 1 with Joey Gatewood in the game ? All we needed was a simple handoff to Bowser or Gabriel keep it.

UCF defense played like high school kids

ucfmay2000 · Post #1576 » by **ucfmay2000** » Sat Sep 18, 2021 3:06 am

Why UCF didn’t run while Lousiville couldn’t stop the running game? What was a stupid call play by the coach. Terrible Coach. That was why Auburn fired him.

It looks like all 4 major Florida Universities could lose this week lol.

Tough weekend for fl college ball

Sucks for UCF. Maybe they’ll get their pass defense figures out by the time DG is able to come back. Such a disappointing game on so many levels

I was at the Florida vs Alabama, I wanted to see Anthony Richardson but he apparently still injured. You can't fall down 21 to 3 to Alabama.

yeah, and as Alabama does lately, they took their foot off the gas. and Im not happy with our new OC, Bill OBrien. not a very innovative offensive mind
