Result: Loss
This is 10* play on the Central Florida Knights.
Anytime time you have an undefeated Top 25 team facing an opponent that is 0-7, you know which way the money is going to go. Of course everyone is lining up to bet the Houston Cougars as an enormous favorite on the road this week. I think it's pretty naive to write off this Knights team though, and I think they can make a game of it.
They have played some tough teams during their 0-7 start, and for the most part they have managed to avoid blowout losses. Last week they went on the road at Temple, and held a lead at halftime.
Houston on the other hand has been beating up on inferior opponents, in fact their last three wins came against teams with just one conference win between them. They did blow out Tulane, but the margin of victory in wins over SMU and Tulsa wasn't as great as the number for this game.
In order to win on the road by four scores, you need to be pretty efficient on both sides of the ball. That's going to be a challenge for the Cougars with so many injuries on both their offensive and defensive lines. After losing three starters for the remainder of the season, the Cougars are holding walk-on tryouts for offensive and defensive linemen this week to plug the holes.
Cougars head coach Tom Herman knows he can't take this team lightly, and here is what he was saying earlier in the week: "This is a team that's two years removed from winning the Fiesta Bowl last I checked. They done an excellent job of recruiting throughout the years, have an excellent staff and excellent head coach. "I don't know why they're 0-7. That's not for me to figure out. They also went into (Temple) and had a lead against one of the best teams in our conference."
Take UCF.
