iirc the best player in our schools history almost lost his leg in a game within the last 5 years. But only iirc
rotating between Boca and Tampa for pre Christmas Bowls 3 years straight is not a good trend ..and Bowl eligibility isn’t a given this year
that KZ injury at RayJay was definitely the high water mark of our run. It’s just been down hill gradually since then
of course you're right. I think by and large we have avoided the injury bug, with KZ as the major exception, for the last several years. Our teams have been majority healthy and most of the wounds have been self-inflicted, mostly by Heupel. This season dredges up all the feelings of the way back bad old days, when every play felt like it was a disaster waiting to happen. I always go back to the Arizona State game in '02, when we went in with big hopes and got blown out while losing like 5 starters. So of course we have had things happen, but this year with the freak plays, injuries, etc just feels different. Maybe we can have one shit year, get it out of the system and move on.
A reminder that most people don't realize how bad we are right now... https://www.wlwt.com/article/national-championship-trophy-will-be-at-cincinnati-ucf-game/37928846#
Space game jersey is based on the space shuttle design. First glance looks kinda plain but reading through the detail it's actually well done. Love the collar detail. Also worth noting the helmet is white as well so not even the space game has a different color. Did Gus not want gold/black helmets? Are those gone? https://ucfknights.exposure.co/mission-v-discovery
Supply chain issues on helmets. We were only able to put together one full set of the helmets (white) and are stuck using them all year.
I don’t think anyone knows. I’ve seen/heard: 1. Bowser is playing but nobody else that was hurt 2. Nobody who has been hurt is back today 3. Everyone who has been hurt may play today Sooooo….
Oh darn my daughter has a softball game at the same time guess I’ll be streaming that instead oh darn oh shame….
I will say I do think we probably score on our first drive with a scripted playbook. Unless we turn it over
feel like Gus needs to go hybrid and at least attempt more deep passes , the receivers are not as good but that is how the roster was built under Heupel. it is weird to look so lifeless on offense against teams like ECU
Keene just doesnt have the deep ball timing down yet. He looks great in the 15-20 yard pass game, I think we need to focus on that and get a solid run game
Cincy has really good DBs that seem to never graduate so don't think our bad WRs vs them is a matchup we want.
I decided to skip the game and go to kings island. My first missed cinci game since I moved to Indianapolis. This team has let me down.
Must be so maddening to coach this team, call a play that has a free shiot at ridder, and the rusher just runs directly by ridder and he barely moved
