I'm loving UCF in this and playing them for 5 units, with 2 units on the under. Waiting for the line tmw, though, as both may move in my favor.

Marshall's run D sucks and, while UCF's run O sucks, UCF has had two weeks to work on it and have made some moves on the OL. They also have replaced some special teamers with vets to shore up the unit.

The UCF guys keep saying they know they cant get into a shootout. This is a team that expected to win the MAC this year, and aside from that they can't afford to go 0-3. I think they'll find a way to get the running game going, as bad as it has been _ and its been BAD.

I'm also not impressed by Pruett as a coach. Plus, UCF is 8-0 off SU & ATS losses. MU is 0-6 ATS last six Sept games. First game in the MAC and they should be hyped. Theyve got an excellent QB, too in Schneider. Other than Big Byron, Marshall looked mediocre last week.

I wouldnt be surprised to see a SU win by UCF. They shoulda beaten Penn St. They need this and the points are way too much not to take. Under looks good as well ...

I'll throw you a bone along the same line of your thinking.

Looks like a decent play even if u don't love Central Fla:

Central Fla: First score(+188)

bulletin board quotes

i live in mac country (by ohio) so get a fair amount of coverage on mac goings on. when central fla recently joined the mac, they made several statements about dominating the mac and so on. i can't remember exactly what was said but it left me a little surprised that they would say the things they were saying without ever playing a game. marshall has obviously been the premier football team in the mac since they joined. i can't imagine that coach pruett doesn't have some serious bulletin board material hanging up for his players. i'm not sure if i'm playing this game tonight but if i were, i think i would have to lean towards marshall. without a doubt, marshall doesn't stack up against a team like virginia tech but central fla is no vt. good luck this weekend.

Thanks for the response. I know what you are talking about-- it was blown up several months back I believe when the UCF coach said they could go undefeated b/c they are in the MAC now.

That is motivation, but UCF has motivation too in that they are 0-2 and want to make a statement as well. I just think this # is too high and I think UCF will hang in tilthe end.

I know it wasn't a conference game but.

I know it wasn't a conference game but.

Everyone's talking Central Florida this and that, but didn't this team get hammered by Arizona State who in no way has the caliber quaterback as Leftwich? Just a thought, because I can't see UCF hanging with this club at all!

Drop a few more lines and let me know what you guys think.

Just to let everyone know, ASU is no gimmy. Matter of fact, UCF's coach said they had the fastest "D" hes seen in a long time.
