IF we beat UCF is the season considered successful?

[LewSFBulls1]

For us to win the last 2 and finish 5-3 in conference would constitute a success. I can't remember finishing with a better conference record then 4-3 in the last 10 years.

[Bulls1181]

absolutely

5-7 would be a successful season (in relative terms to building this program back up) in my book, regardless of whether we beat C. Florida or Memphis. 2-10 to 5-7 shows progress, and if we can beat a good team doing so (2 upcoming) I will be pleased. 

 

I was hopeful for 6-6 but that was an optimistic guess. 4-8 to 5-7 is a reasonable expectation, especially after seeing how we played our first few games.

If we're not going bowling this year, then I'm going "yes" on this one. Nothing would make me happier at this point than to mess with the Knights' end of season. My schadenfreude is strong against UCF.

[theman123]

Yes.

[El_Toro_86]

Not successful but satisfying

[raptorcj]

schadenfreude...now that's a new one on me but entirely appropriate. Gold star, Paisa!

[MaltLiquorBull]

No. Success is winning a bowl game, having a winning record...Jeez, even a signature win. 5-7 with a win over mouse town is not a successful season. But we better beat those clowns.

This season was awful and a win over UCF doesn't change anything.  The teams we beat (not including the exhibition win over Western Carolina) are 4-24 thus far this year with 3 of those 4 wins against powerhouses Stony Brook, Tulane, and UCF with the last victory coming in the Tulsa-SMU game that somebody had to win by default.
