LSU vs. UCF

[OrlandoCuse]

UCF getting some ridiculous help from the officials.

Taunting call was a make up and as good as a turnover

 

[Entropic]

UCF defense looks pretty darn good.

Their DBs are getting away with significant holds on every play.

 

[Finwad32]

UCF defense looks pretty darn good.

Their Secondary is long with great speed, they look great early on... both 20 & 21.

 

[orangeinjersey]

The annoying thing is, if they win this game, all their fans will scream how they belong.

They fail to realize, or just decide not to acknowledge, the fact that it’s one thing to get up for one game...it’s quite another to play P5 teams week in/week out. AAC is currently 2-4 in bowls including losses to 6th place ACC teams from each division.

They. An only play who is on the schedule though! P5 teams don’t want to play them/don’t have to play them. The playoff is an invitational, it really is. Every SEC team gets the benifit of the doubt, and when they get smoked in a bowl game it’s all about it’s just a single game, they were disappointed blah blah blah. I hope UCF murders LSU

Clearly shoulder to shoulder.

blindside blocks with force are not legal any more.

P5 teams have offered to play them 2-for-1... want to overcome the bias? You have to take those deals.

Otherwise it’s crocodile tears.

 

[Cuse12]

LSU had a TD first drive but hurried up to the line and snapped the ball. They should’ve reviewed the play. Bad coaching mistake there.

 

[Alsacs]

LSU has access top 5 talent in the nation and they role with Ed Orgeron as their HC,
It’s no wonder Nick Saban could and probably does roll a blunt at cackle at them.
Jimbo Fisher and A&M are going to become Alabama’s biggest problem.

LSU should go to Matt Campbell and say how much?
Give Campbell the LSU personnel he makes it hard on Bama.

The LSU offense is just poorly coached year after year.

 

[Finwad32]

If LSU struggles defensively it’ll be tough for their O to keep pace. Gotta play strong on D.

Their strategy seems to be working. They've got us all talking about them. They're what Boise was a few years ago but with more staying power because of their location. Maybe the B12 will take a flyer on them. I'm sure that's the ultimate goal.

This wasn’t a defenseless QB 20 yards from the play getting blown up. Burrow was running toward the interceptor trying to make a tackle. Totally legal block, shoulder to shoulder. Refs and replay confirmed it.

I believe it was UF who offered to play them. UCF declined.

They have their chance to play P5 teams every year.

 

[supp]

UCF has some serious talent. They don't look at all overwhelmed athletically.

 

[jncuse]

The block was vicious but legal. And I suspect it may have lit a fire under LSU.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Who throws a punch after recovering a turnover?

Knucklehead.

 

[BlueShaq]

What a weak punch haha

I’d love to see them in a P5. Until then, I can’t say I disagree with the current format.

But you’re absolutely correct, everyone is talking about them.

 

[Finwad32]

They definitely look the part. LSU’s D is down 8 players today though, wow.

Yeah, just saw that. That helps!

Kid was a Senior.

His college career is over.

I think you may be right... Da Tigers look pissed off since.

We were just talking about it. You’re playing for so much more, just stupid. Bc he’s talking a little smack? Come on now.

 

[jncuse]

UCF needs to find a way to survive until halftime and reset.

 

[dan7800]

UCF got away with a targeting and a facemark on that last play

UCF is struggling to score against LSUs backups. The only reason its this close is because a lot of terrible officiating that is really one sided.

Edit: They apparently caught the targeting so the officiating is slightly less awful.
