Didn’t watch Kansas but saw Tech beat them. Let me guess, they looked like a completely different team and the hangover that was expected after the OU game happened 2 weeks later instead? I really wanted them to run the table after looking really good against ISU, typical they lay an egg after our game.
Bean got hurt early and hardly played.

What’s with UCFs uniforms?
Apparently they did a color change when they broadened their educational scope and became UCF in 1978. Prior to that they were Florida Technological University, a school targeting degrees for nearby NASA. "Space U."

Before they were the Knights/Golden Knights, they were the Citronauts.

Their QB got hurt in the first half and were playing their 3rd string guy most of the game. That's going to be tough for any team.

I'm shocked as to why but KenPom has UCF as #73 early and I know it has plenty of last year data built in. Could it be possible they won't suck in hoops?
I expect the grinder to do them in for a few years at least

The under still seems safe in Iowa's record 5th lowest under of all time.

How many here have been riding that bet all year? I know a few said they had last week.

Why did they go away from either Florida Tech or Citronauts? Each is better.

(I think there's some reasoning behind the Tech-to-Central Florida change, but I don't have time to explore right now).
