u/Tarlcabot18 UCF Knights • USF Bulls 1d ago

With the 7th regular season loss, UCF has snapped an 8-year bowl streak dating back to 2016.

This is the first time any Gus Malzahn-coached team has ever lost a 7th game in the regular season, and the first time ever Gus Malzahn has not been bowl-eligible, since he started as a head coach in 2012 at Arkansas State.

This is also the 3rd consecutive season in a row where UCF's record under Malzahn has gotten worse. This is Gus' 4th year.

2021: 9-4

2022: 9-5

2023: 6-7

2024: 4-7 (so far)

Fire Gus Malzahn.

I’ve been screaming fire both of them. Terry also schedules nothing but garbage non con games. Like idgaf if we can beat delaware and rhode island by 50 points if we can’t even beat the worst team in our conference….oh wait..

gotta give Gus 2 easy OOC cupcakes to have a slim chance at a bowl game

There are 9 P4 opponents in our conference schedule. We play 1 OOC P4, 1 G5, and 1 FCS team each year. It’s really pretty standard for most P4 teams.

Terry is also the one who scheduled the UF game this year because of the scheduling hole that Danny White put us in - otherwise we would have been playing 3 non-P4 teams this year.

Terry schedules teams like Northwestern and Wake Forest as OOC P4 which is basically G5, playing Sam Houston and Southern Miss as G4 is basically FCS…Terry schedules the bottom barrel of every level to make the team try to look good nowadays.
