NCAA: Bowl Thread

[Gene Parmesan]

Kentucky has ballers on defense. Not just Josh Allen.

I guess we're using this thread?

LSU is out of timeouts already. What an awful challenge.

Doesn't matter, UCF is making way too many mistakes today to make this a game. LSU will just run down the clock in the 4th.

 

[Gene Parmesan]

LSU should be up by way more. Letting UCF hang around.

 

[PredsV82]

Oh Kentucky... dont you ever stop being so Kentucky

 

[HoseEmDown]

I haven't seen UCF look this bad in some time. It's not even a talent difference. LSU just clearly outcoached them and out executed. UCF just didn't plan this game well and made way too many mistakes.

 

[PredsV82]

Go to page 115 of the NCAA record book and tell me they don't recognize the UCF national championship.

Um gonna have to give me a link to that, sport. Not like I have the book sitting on my coffee table..

Nice work, Kentucky. Always good to see Pederast U lose.

Oh.. oh...you NEVERsay that about Kentucky until the clock read 0:00.

Seriously...

Just Google NCAA record book UCF and it will take you to the page.

Not sure if this is the beginning of something good for Kentucky or if this is just a flash in the pan and they go back to winning 6 or 7 at best.

UCF is indeed recognized as national champs......here is a link:

UCF officially listed among national champions in 2018 NCAA record book

UCF did a good job all things considered. I would have liked to see them push the ball more, but their line didn't hold up.

 

[HoseEmDown]

Well it was fun while it lasted. The team is still set up to be in contention for a NY6 bowl every year which is all you can hope. Hopefully they can coach up the QB in the off-season because he was pitiful today.

That unsportsmanlike penalty in the 1st quarter when they were up 14-3 that let to LSU first touchdown was a killer. They also executed poorly all game which took them out of their rhythm and when theyretnot in rhythm they aren't looking good.

Ok, I read it. You are overstating what it actually says. The heading is "final national poll leaders" and UCF is listed as the poll leader by "Colley" who, interestingly has only been listed as a "major selector" for two years.

This same poll had Alabama as its national champion for 2016... despite Alabama losing to Clemson in the playoff.

So I tell you what, if you can find anyone else who has the stones to claim Alabama, not Clemson, was the national champion 2 years ago then I'll consider your claim. Until then this Colley pollster is a joke.

They accounted well for themselves. If they had Milton, they could have won. Especially with all the guys LSU was missing. They were in it until the end and no one can say LSU didn't show up either.

Franklin should have gone for it rather than kick that late FG.

Ed Orgeron is a so-so coach that gets bailed out by his high end talent

 

[PredsV82]

I think at long as Stoops stays it will be "good" by Kentucky standards where 7 wins becomes the minimum acceptable standard and winning 8 or 9 is not uncommon. For UK football that's a huge improvement over the previous 50+years of my lifetime

Penn State are always going to be frauds and Franklin's game day management is going to be the biggest reason why.

Orgeron is a defensive line coach masquerading as a head coach and would not be a head coach at any other major program in the country.

Weird game. UCF did not have its QB and LSU was missing 8 starters on defense. LSU was more effectively able to replace its 8 players than UCF was able to do with its QB.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

How many pre snap penalties on the Buckeyes now, 6?

 

[GKJ]

Starting to get away from the Huskies here.

Giants need to draft Haskins.
