I have zero faith in Anae's game planning ability vs. UCF

His play calling struggles mightily against good defenses which don't allow him to do what he plans on. See games against Utah, Wisconsin, Notre Dame, and Washington last season. And almost every game ever against TCU. I see that game going similar to the Notre Dame game last year. I put our winning chance at about 20% because there is always the possibility that Taysom plays out of his mind.

Houston Cougars might be our toughest game of the year...

Houston had a number of miraculous plays and they still lost

They really did have almost a season of good breaks in that one game.

KO return, pick six, OPI obvious to all but the stripes, blown plaster coverage

7/22/14 1:04pm

Don't forget the safety, TO in the blue zone (the end zone itself IIRC)

QB had some magical slippery substance on his jersey so the defense missed

Y05

We gave them 21 points last year, and they got one TD on a blatant offensive PI

CoopDizz

7/22/14 12:45pm

Exactly. We won't see them have that kind of luck against our D again.

southernfriedcougar

7/22/14 12:57pm

They scored 46 freaking points. Wisconsin, ND, Texas, Washington, BSU, etc.

It will be highly impressive to me if we score more than twice against UCF's D.

What is this, 2010?

UCF returns basically its entire D.

TSH_Rapid_Resp_Team

Blaine Fowler said UCF has SEC-level speed. UCF returns 10 defensive starters.

ldssdl

7/22/14 12:50pm

Speedy, but undersized. Need a power run game plan for that one.

Houston was a great game last year.

Great 1st game for 3 of my kids

It's definitely our toughest home game

I think they are our toughest home game... But 16 of their points came from

You have applied what I have long called the "True Score" to last year's game

Nice description. I just have to be sure my blue-goggles don't prevent me from

I think the biggest thing is that it is potentially an emotional trap game.

cougarick

7/22/14 1:01pm

So, the consensus of CB is that the main reason the game was close was luck?

Anae4Anae

7/22/14 1:33pm

No, not calling any one play luck.

That's a lot of etc's, but what else was there? Go re-watch that game. They were

I hope you're right. I think they're better than we think. ESPN has them at #34

Precisely! And because we dominated the LOS, I'm confident. Key in most games.

BarraCouga

7/22/14 5:04pm

It's why we lost to both Wisconsin and ND, or at least a huge reason why.

ldssdl

7/22/14 6:00pm

It's why

CoopDizz

Why do you keep telling me that I don't get "the point"?I understand fully your

You didn't say it was a fluke? Ok, here is what you said:

Anae4Anae

7/22/14 11:29pm

It's reasonable to expect that our offense and secondary will be improved this

ldssdl

7/22/14 3:35pm

I was at that game. We were destroying them on the LOS

BarraCouga

7/22/14 1:42pm

Everyone agrees that they are good, and should be better than last year given

ldssdl

7/22/14 1:44pm

A lot of that slicing was due to the fact that Craig Bills didn't play

cougarick

7/22/14 1:51pm

Good point, I completely forgot about that.

ldssdl

7/22/14 1:53pm

Yes and no. They were out gained by 200 yards.

UCF is better than Houston and that game is away in Florida. Much tougher.

You can think ill of Strong, but this year is in Austin and they want revenge.

BabyOx

I don't think ill of Strong at all. I don't think there are many coaches out

Did they really "fear the passing attack?"

southernfriedcougar

You must be worried about UVa for the same reasons you're confident we beat TX
