2015 Football Wish List

Last night during a period of deep sleep the college football gods came to me in a dream and asked me what my wishes were for the upcoming 2015 football season.  I have been giving it a small amount of thought and hadn't really put much effort in to what I would like to see most in this upcoming season.  Not wanting to anger the college football gods with my indecisiveness, I ventured into the schedule and came up with my wishes for UCF Football 2015. OK I know that when I have conversations with other Knights fans on a wish list for the upcoming season, the comment "You mean besides winning the conference and beating the cows?" always comes up because these items kind of go without saying.  However, even though these are always on my annual wish list (actually they are on my perennial list because there are other sports than football) but we are talking about football right now so they will be added because they are wishes.

  1. Just like last year this year is no different.  We need to keep our momentum from the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl win going.  In order to accomplish that we have to win at least one of our two games this year versus our "power five" opponents.  I'm talking about a win against either Stanford or South Carolina.  One of these games in my opinion is a must win for us to keep the credibility that we earned from beating the Big 12 champion Baylor Bears about a year and a half ago in Glendale Arizona.
  2. I contemplated this next one for a while only because I feel that this one really goes without saying but here it is anyway: BEAT THE BULLS!  Actually the details for this wish would be to see us return the favor from 2007 and really put some deep hurting on them by lighting up the scoreboard like a pinball machine.
  3. Three-peat! Host and win the AAC football championship game. Another one that kind of goes without saying.
  4. Put UCONN back in their place after our bad performance last against them.
  5. Another bowl game trophy is kind of important and would definitely help our brand out tremendously, especially winning against a "power five conference" team.

So there you have it, my wish list for 2015.

Go Knights!  #ChargeOn
