I said the same as soon as the schedule came out. Cross country, short week, have to deal with whatever Thanksgiving stuff the team does.,, all of that is before you consider the access they have to some of the best recruiting areas of the country and a coach who has been to a National Championship game before.
UCF’s path is pretty similar to Utah’s. Overlooked G5 that forced it’s way into the conversation, has made the move up and should be expected, with competent coaching, to challenge for conference titles in the near future.
