“Defending National Champs” UCF Opening Game of 2018 at The Rent

[whaler11]

You might be right, but I think there is a path from #21. It just means that they'll have to go undefeated, but we already knew that before any poll was taken...

They can’t go undefeated...

 

[UConnDan97]

They can’t go undefeated...

That's what it will take to finish in the top 4, but yeah, I agree with you that it is impossible since they'll drop at least one road game in East Hartford...

 

[Hornet22]

They can’t go undefeated...

Could you imagine Whaler?

Legit question. Do you think at least 30k would should up for that game since it’s UCF and the hype they’ll receive next year?

No way.

 

[UConnDan97]

No way.

I so desperately want you to be wrong about this, but my gut reaction is that you are probably right.

I'm hoping that maybe the buzz of a ranked team and possible good weather turns out more folks than anticipated. But I also have the feeling that our fanbase has turned into a "show me first" type of fanbase. And that's in multiple sports, too...

 

[Hornet22]

No way.

Well, I’m hoping Spring practice and the coverage they’ll most likely get will show a much improved team. I’m sure RE will do whatever he can to express that this incoming class is leaps and bounds ahead of schedule and that he’s expecting really good things from the team as a whole. He’ll surely tout the uptick in athleticism, physicality etc. Maybe the Spring game will look a lot better than last years as well.
I’m feeling a decent crowd for the UCF game.

It’s Labor Day weekend. They don’t draw flies.

Just a friendly reminder of our first game next year as the National Champs come to East Hartford!

I know UCF had a good season but we'll see how they hold up in front of 19K rabid UConn fans!!

Seriously though, maybe the trend of playing to the level of our opponent in week 1 will continue in 2018 and actually build some momentum this time.

They are going to be a 4 touchdown underdog and it’s Labor Day weekend.

Outside of here nobody locally has UCF fever.

Alabama wins CFP title and is No. 1 in Way-Too-Early Top 25 for 2018

Bringing back 16 of 22 starters - way too early rank of 21 - so much for respect.

Fake News is the norm.

Ironic from a marketer.

I hear it takes a while for the anti depressants to kick in. Hang in there bro, it's all gonna be okay.

You are the one who prides themselves on misrepresenting things.

You complaining about ‘fake news’ is disingenuous poppycock. I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt that you are bright enough to understand it’s disingenous.

I am cool with reality, unlike you, I don’t need to try and bend it into something that makes me feel better.

I love when clowns like you are reduced to nothing but snide personal comments because you’ve got no legitimate arguments.

Just trying to help. Not only do you sound depressed and angry but with almost 35,000 posts could be OCD. You poor baby!

 

[Wildgopher]

Anyone going to Boise?

Yes, already have the hotel booked.

 

[NavinRJohnson]

Didn't UCONN break their last streak in 2014?

 

[Hornet22]

It’s Labor Day weekend. They don’t draw flies.

Lol

It is probably our turn for a hurricane so the game will be postponed Bill. I would hope for a Friday night or Saturday night game. Saturday there would be no traffic issues. We could get 30k. The offense will be better next year based on returning experience at QB, WR and O line. The vibe for FB is on the upswing. I hope fans return. Maybe ticket pricing will help.

Auburn and TCU losing a bunch of starters, but still ahead of UCF? Joke. But anyway this is just 1 writers fake clickbait top 25 right? They're going to be screaming to be in the top 10 if they're undefeated going into October.
