Very early in the game.   But the takeaway I see is that UCF misses Storm Johnson terribly.  Stanbeck can't get to the outside, so they are resorting to using WR reverses to run to the outside.

The Storm loss is huge for us, but the loss of 3 OL is the kicker. We couldn''t establish the run or block long enough to give Holman time to throw it down field.

as ridiculous as this sounds to casual fans not familiar with UCF, Losing Storm Johnson was bigger than losing Bortles with this offense along with the new OL as you mentioned. Everything went downhill after halftime. Holman is going to be good

I think Holman will prove to be better than Bortles.  Stanbeck is what I thought he was last year.  A solid power back that can move the pile, but he isn't a back that scares opposing defenses.  UCF fans better hope Hall can develop into that guy.

Correct call on William, but he has one advantage over Storm and that is ball security but you are correct, I don't think William forces teams to game plan for him.

Holman will be brought along like they taught BB. Justin may not have BB's long ball touch but he does have one helluva of an arm.

Who is the person Hall that you referenced?

I think it was Hall that was the #2 RB I saw out there from time to time.  But I was kind of hopping around so I might have the name wrong.  But there seemed to be another RB that was more speedy and elusive than Stanbeck.

Hall is one our WR's he's a senior and he balled out in the fiesta Bowl. He's a jack of all trades kind of guy and we certainly missed him vs. PSU. The season, and it's record, is what it is, but we could easily be looking at 1-1 had we switched to Holman sooner in week one. Oh, well. You move on. Can't wait for conference play to start, still a chance to go undefeated there.

Yeah, I noticed later that Hall is a WR, but he had more carries than anyone except Stanbeck.  I think you've got issues at RB.

 

But I'd take half your offense over what ours did this week.

Hall was running the Jet sweeps...so now I get it.  They even had Periman running them ....which is new....and unlike unlike his normal catch everything near him.... his hands were made of stone on Saturday. I saw 3 drops....2 or 3  on 3rd down with distance for moving the chains.

 

 

 

Thanks.

Whats all this discussion about plays on offense? Are we allowed to play offense too? Or is that just a winning program thing?
