Knights slow down Golden Hurricane, snap losing skid

he he he

way to be, knights!

Regain your composure and play your game! One game, one week, one opponent at a time!

Slow start, but good to see the team come alive. Solid 2nd half.

Wow, you'd think the hometown paper would spell the QB's name right....

Congrats on snapping that losing streak.

Congrats on being the last USF fan left.

congrats on beginning your losing streak

Golden Hurricane? Is that more powerful than a Golden Shower?

That was the best the Knights have looked all season long!

Way to go Israel....thats how you get it done.

Nice to see UCF bounce back...big win and a good season well w in grasp

Yeah, they are the fifth best team in the state!!!!... and play in a crappy stadium full of bleachers!!!

thank god the world is right again with uf being the number one team in the state...ucf is still the second most popular team in orlando. go gators!!!

What's with the UF fans bashing us now? I expect it from USF fans, but Gators? Maybe in the week we play them... But, a lot of Knight fans are Gator fans too, we cheered in BHNS when they announced the score of UF-UK. Come on. We already have Bianchi to deal with.

Thanks. Those last two losses were really painful and looked like the team just flat gave up. We are not known for being a second half team and usually peter out about midway through the third quarter. Last night, though, we played all 60 minutes. The defense could have played MUCH better in stopping the run, but thankfully our pass D stepped up and had 4 interceptions deep in our territory. Tulsa played a much better game than the scoreboard showed and averaged about 6 yeards a play.

I'm not going to lie and say I wasn't pleased on a personal level to see the Bulls lose to Rutgers, but as a Floridian I'm exstatic to see another state school kicking butt nationally. USF has had a helluva season so far and you all seriously put a hurtin on us on the 13th. I wish you luck in the rest of your season.

I'll take UCF's new stadium over that piece o' shite "swamp" any day. Stomping your feet on concrete doesn't really make any noise. But what really makes Benny Hill's stadium a joke are the pompous jerkoff Gator fans that populate it.

Finally, 4 quarters of football! Israel needs to have board game night every week, if that's what it takes to get the offense to show up for the second half. It's better than any adjustment the coaching staff has made.

Now, we need to win in Hattiesburg next week and we need ECU to lose to a bottom feeder like UAB or Memphis and we actually have a shot at the eastern champs. Part of this is in our hands, part of it isn't. Let's take care of what we have to do, huh George?

The best quote of the year,... "I haven't read the paper {insert Orlando Sentinel} in about three weeks and I won't do it tomorrow," Israel said. "And I won't do it [today]. You have to take the good with the bad."

I give you a compliment, and the first thing a UCF fan does is come back with an insult? BTW, you might want to get some of your UCF fans who are STILL posting about USF losing to Rutgers.

You guys just don't get it, do you. the better UCF does, the better it helps our strength of schedule. The better that WE do, the better it helps YOUR schedule.

Bullish, thanks for the words. I gotta tell you though, I tried to pull for you guys on Thursday, but literally couldn't bring myself to do it. Grothe's a cool cat though, every time they showed him on the sidelines, he just looked laid back as if the team were up by 3 TDs. I think that's why he's so good.

As for the Gator fans on here that bash UCF, they've never set foot in a class at UF. Losers.

Go Knights!

Uh, yeah. Thanks for all that "help" you gave our strength of schedule at Rutgers.
