Cinci (6-1) @ UCF (5-2) Saturday

UCF can gain some respect if they can defeat Cinci on Saturday.

Also, if UCF can win out they can still win the conference.

UCF has been inconsistent at Qb play. World beaters when Plumlee is playing great, egg layers when not.

Game is sold out so should be great home field atmosphere.

Surprisingly the vegas spread is EVEN. I would expect the Bearcats to be favored.

I think this is the last worthy opponent for them.

@Tulane. Tulane is in top 25

Memphis is down this year. Navy is always difficult to beat and beat UCF last year.

Then if we win out then conference champ game.

But, Cinci is toughest game for sure. They recovered nicely after losing 9 players to the NFL last year.

Im surprised UCF is favored now by 1.5 points. Did Vegas oddsmakers not see ECU dismantle UCF last week?

Gator vs Georgia game is also on at 330pm so if that gets out of hand bounce over to the UCF game and vice versa.

Glad I only watched the 2nd half!

QB Plumlee knocked out w/ injury in 2nd qtr, and Mikey Keene takes over.

They say a player doesn't normally lose a starting role due to injury, but I think Keene earned and deserves the next start.

Defenses don't seem to respect UCF's passing game. They know Plumlee has a high tendency to run, and with Malzahn calling so many running plays, that's where D's will key.

It's just too hard to win big games when you rely on the run that much. I'm guessing that style of play calling is part of what led Dillon Gabriel to the transfer portal.

For fans, the running games are not as exciting as the wide open passing games UCF relied on for like 25 years.

Knights barely have a passing game, much less a passing attack.

Keene at QB forced UC's D to respect the pass, and that opened some key holes for the talented run game to do their thing.

UCF #25 in today's Coaches poll! Earned respect.

#25 in the AP poll!

That game was crazy good.
