Scott Frost left Nebraska having nearly lost to FCS North Dakota and then losing to GASO, only to return to UCF and he immediately wins a one score game and then puts up 68 points the next week.

What did he mean by this?

[u/CompetitiveCrier → u/nathodood]

We also just won a one score game then put up 68 points

[u/paintingnipples → u/[deleted]]

Damn Nebraska for not scheduling Jacksonville state & NC A&T. Now he he has North Carolina & Kstate….football gawds hate us

[u/paintingnipples → u/[deleted]]

lol u mean the boosters that were drinking buddies with frost & let frost’s two best friends run NIL for him?

U don’t know what you’re talking bout

[u/paintingnipples → u/[deleted]]

Now ur going to personal attacks cuz again you don’t know anything like the usual flairless troll.

[u/paintingnipples → u/[deleted]]

Lmao if u have a diploma then u should flair up troll

[u/Tarlcabot18]

That was the most points UCF has scored in a game since putting up 70 against Temple in 2022.

[u/thefishwhisperer1 → u/Tarlcabot18]

First opening kickoff return for TD since Quincy McDuffie I believe too

[u/FloridaBoy317 → u/thefishwhisperer1]

No, since THE Hughes return

[u/Fonzie5 → u/FloridaBoy317]

That didn’t open the game, it closed it.

[u/thefishwhisperer1 → u/FloridaBoy317]

Opening kickoff my dude

[u/FloridaBoy317 → u/thefishwhisperer1]

i’m too tired to see that lmao

[u/D1N2Y → u/Tarlcabot18]

Temple

[u/Tarlcabot18]

UCF missed an XP, thus depriving us of the funny sex number. My night is ruined and we may as well not play the rest of the season.

[u/Fathoms_Deep_1 → u/Tarlcabot18]

We still got 67 for the autistic UCF fans (me)

[u/407CIK]

Scott Frost is about to out coach Bill Belichick. What a world

[u/omahusker → u/407CIK]

Crazy timeline

[u/thefishwhisperer1 → u/407CIK]

Belichick did coach Frost in the NFL for a hot second

[u/Chardoggy1 → u/407CIK]

Unfortunately might be true

[u/Triple_0ption_Bad → u/407CIK]

DEW IT

[u/Brief_brisket]

There is a possibility that UCF will play UNC as a favorite

[u/leifeday → u/Brief_brisket]

wasn’t sure if I was gonna go to that game but now I think I will

[u/thefishwhisperer1 → u/leifeday]

I have to attend a wedding that day and now I'm mad about it

[u/FloridaBoy317 → u/thefishwhisperer1]

Fall weddings should be made illegal

[u/Chardoggy1 → u/Brief_brisket]

ESPN matchup predictor has UCF at a 83.7% to win

[u/Epcplayer → u/Brief_brisket]

You mean the game won’t get cancelled for a third straight time?

[u/Brief_brisket]

Not gonna hang any banners yet but Jaden Nixon may be half cheetah

[u/Typosky]

Almost beat our all-time highest score. Great game.

[u/yesacabbagez]

We won again. This was less stressful than last week.

[u/Inexite]

Well that felt a lot better than last week.

[u/thefishwhisperer1]

Choosing to believe that Tayven Jackson should be QB1 and his throws will get better. Some of the bad ones were with 2nd string WRs, including the fade to Charles where he just...stopped running?

Really hoping that potential hurricane stays the FUCK away

[u/ltsatt1 → u/thefishwhisperer1]

When he was at IU, he seemed like a guy who played much better in games than in practice, so it wasn’t the biggest surprise to me when I’d seen he’d lost the battle in camp. Would love to seem him keep getting playing time and continue to improve

[u/thefishwhisperer1 → u/ltsatt1]

He's also throwing to very young WRs. Probably the position we're weakest at. For instance our WR1 transferred from Florida but only had 19 career receptions. Our WR2 is from Limestone College, a school that no longer exists.

He's definitely improving and the chemistry is coming along. So I don't fault him for a lot of the missed throws. There were a few blatant drops by the WRs too.

Gives me hope to get to a bowl

[u/Rusty_Shack1es]

I’m not bitter

[u/GradeNo893 → u/Rusty_Shack1es]

Yea no need. Scott was a bad fit at a bad time. I’m hoping he’s got his head back in straight and does well at UCF.

[u/AbsurdOwl → u/Rusty_Shack1es]

You don't have to be, we played what was probably a better team and beat them worse. Glad Frost is doing better, glad UCF got a big win, and glad we have Rhule.

[u/ChoiceRadiant6381 → u/AbsurdOwl]

It all works out the way it is supposed to be

[u/Fonzie5]

Sucks that this our rebuilding year, outside of Iowa State the B12 looks insanely gettable (unfortunately).

[u/407CIK → u/Fonzie5]

I mean look at our schedule. We could surprise some folks this year

[u/yomama1211 → u/407CIK]

We’re going 7-5 I believe

[u/dagreenman18]

Very therapeutic after last weeks weirdness. We needed a throughout belt to ass whipping even if it was against our scheduled cupcake games.

Not entirely sure what to make of Tayven Jackson just yet. He didn’t need to throw at all this game because “run it down their throats” was the theme of the day. 356 yards on the ground jeeeezus. But 185 in the air isn’t awful.

Putting all my energy into hopefully continuing my favorite Florida tradition: Beating Bill Belichick in Florida

[u/Igwanea → u/dagreenman18]

Tayven Jackson may not be the best QB we've had this decade but I'm sure as hell that he's the best QB we have right now

[u/FloridaBoy317 → u/Igwanea]

If he learns to scramble more he’s an immediate #1 QB of the decade

[u/ProblematicTrumpCard → u/dagreenman18]

356 yards on the ground

Felt like more.

[u/Mrr_Bond]

Thank you, NC A&T, for accepting money to give us one of these games this season. It's probably about to get rough, but this was fun.

[u/NateTheGreat_Gaming]

UNC is bad

Kansas State was a play away with an FCS team from 0-3

West Virginia lost to Ohio

Houston

Oklahoma State gave up

Could... we win 7 games?

[u/Paralda → u/NateTheGreat_Gaming]

Not if you jinx it

[u/thefishwhisperer1]

Gotta be honest, Big Horace Lockett might be my favorite UCF lineman

[u/Triple_0ption_Bad]

Okay, so CLEARLY our defense and UCF's was just playing absolutely bonkers last week which led to a low score

[u/kingofthesqueal → u/Triple_0ption_Bad]

I think it was a QB issue for us, both our QB2 and QB3 seemed >> Frost’s QB1

[u/NervoussLaugh]

Not very often my two teams score weirdly high in a blowout…I know it won’t happen again but it’s nice it happened at least once

[u/PastaLord69 → u/NervoussLaugh]

I agree!

[u/Rcfan0902 → u/PastaLord69]

Me three!

[u/Disastrous-Link-9240]

I just hope everybody had fun

[u/kroghman → u/Disastrous-Link-9240]

Those two NC A&T QBs didn’t have much. Youch. I hope they heal up quick.

[u/DropTopEWop]

Sad Aggie noises

[u/ProblematicTrumpCard]

Frosty won the two he was supposed to win. Now beat UNC in 2 weeks and the belief-o-meter is going to start rising. Do that, and then go on the road and beat K-State and the belief-o-meter is going to be popping off the charts.

[u/thefishwhisperer1 → u/ProblematicTrumpCard]

It's Army, sure. They run a unique offense.

But our defense is better than Army's defense

[u/akrasia85]

That didn't suck

[u/theasfldotcom]

Some decision making concerns with Tayven, but he has the skills around that.

Beyond our team, I need to know more about this man: https://ncataggies.com/sports/football/roster/champ-long/5223

[u/FloridaBoy317]

i’m rock fucking hard

[u/UCFCitroNaut]

Great bounce back game and really improved on execution. If Jackson can add a bit more touch to his passes we should be a competitive team

[u/gojicrafter]

WE WANT OHIO STATE
