So Coach Meyer has his own Bruce Hooley (in Bianchi). Neat.

The fact I don't have to read his (Bianchi's) opinion pieces to know his opinion is not good.

I'll give Coach Meyer credit for handling it professionally (unlike the writer).

Weather looks like it may be a factor....60% chance of rain already for Saturday but the timing can obviously change, however, currently the highest chances on the graph spike at around 2PM.

We scored 56 points against a defense that was #48 overall and #39 in scoring defense last year. UCF scored 56 points against a defense that was #94 overall and #116 in scoring defense last year.

We allowed 10 points to a team led by a likely NFL draft pick QB (rated #7 QB prospect). UCF allowed 14 points to a team that was almost dea last (#118 of 120) in scoring last year.

O'Leary: Latavius Murray will not play for UCF at No. 18 Ohio State
By Iliana Lim?n Romero | Orlando Sentinel
September 4, 2012

UCF coach George O'Leary said senior starting running back Latavius Murray did not practice Tuesday, and he does not expect Murray to play against No. 18 Ohio State Saturday.

When he was asked whether he expected Murray to play during his weekly press conference Tuesday, O'Leary responded, "No, I don't. I think he's week to week. He didn't practice today. In fact he was just in helmet, didn't even have shoulder pads on. . . . If they don't practice Tuesday or Wednesday, I don't include them in the game plan."

Murray anchors a deep running back rotation for the Knights.

O'Leary said Miami transfer Storm Johnson will start against the Buckeyes, while senior reserve running back Brynn Harvey will take over the backup role.

"You're an ankle away, that's how I look at it," O'Leary said, noting he constantly reminds reserve players they have to be ready to play.

The running back rotation was one of UCF's biggest strengths entering the season.

Murray is a powerful back who won 2010 Conference USA championship game and Liberty Bowl most valuable player honors.

Johnson is a dynamic athlete with big play potential who was heavily recruited coming out of high school.

Harvey rushed for more than 1,000 yards during the 2009 season and earned first team All-Conference USA honors. He slipped back in the running back rotation after tearing his ACL before the 2010 season.

O'Leary said athletic freshman Cedric Thompson will be third in the rotation. Thompson had 11 carries for 44 yards and one touchdown during the season opener at Akron.

He joked Thompson reminded him of Dancing Harry, alluding to a super fan who danced on the sidelines during New York Knicks games during the 1970s.

"He ran for 210 yards but only gained 40," O'Leary said of Thompson's play against Akron.

That may be but Miami also could've been closer to us as well had it not be for just as many drops.

Like about up 17 to zip at the end of the first quarter. Two passes dropped in the end zone and a missed field goal from inside the 20. OSU was lucky to be down by only 3. NOT that that would have changed much of the final result, but Dysert put on one of the better passing performances I've seen in the stadium.

Sounds pretty logical.

Everyone knows teams playing at home in front of 100K of their own fans always shit the bed when a bunch of people 1500 miles away hope they lose.
