5 Things to Expect

from the National Champion UCF Knights in 2018

Being right all the time isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be.

In this era of “FAKE NEWS!” bullshit, anyone can say they correctly predicted a

major event, and the majority of people won’t bother arguing or even looking it up. That leaves authentic psychics like yours truly burdened with the painful truth that we will never get the credit we deserve for calling it like it eventually is.

But I’m going to brag anyway. One year ago, in this very publication, I declared that the UCF

By God Football Fightin’ Fast Knights would achieve a perfect season. I predicted that the underrated, unappreciated Knights would overcome the laughably overrated USF Veal, and McKenzie “The Red Stapler” Milton would lead the UCFast program to heights never before imagined. And I also very accurately predicted the rise of Shaquem Griffin as not only the most beloved player in UCF history, but also a national hero. My only mistake was that I wrote, “UCF will probably never play for a national championship,” when the Knights did, in fact, become NATIONAL CHAMPIONS, BABY. So, my apologies for that unforgivable, ignorant mistake.

Enough about me, though. This is about the 2018 UCF football team, led by new and much, much better head coach Josh “Not a Hunk, but That’s Great Because He’s Just Like Us” Heupel, who makes me want to jump right into my first of five 100 accurate points about this season…

We are fine. Everything is fine.

There are UCF fans out there who have still not come to terms with the fact that the previous head coach – I can’t recall his name… maybe something like Abandoned Us Before the Liberty Game – is gone. I won’t deny that he was beloved for his effor ts during his very shor t time in Orlando, but get the f*ck over it already and cancel the Go Fund Me account for his giant gold statue.

Danny “Lifetime Contract ASAP” White did the best thing any team could do when it loses a young, offensive-minded, high octane coach – he went out and hired the next best young, offensive-minded, high octane coach. Plus, Heupel comes with the bonus that he isn’t clearly going to jump ship for his old program as soon as a shady AD shoves an underperforming coach into traffic. This dude could actually stay around for a long time! (Disclaimer : I wrote the last sentence like two minutes before the stuff about Urban Myer was repor ted, so it doesn’t count against me if Ohio State comes Heupel-hunting in one year.)

Return of the Mack

There are two ways we could approach Milton’s encore: i) We could be idiot spor ts fans and expect his numbers to be ungodly, just so insane that it’s like you’re playing a video game on the easiest setting. We could be arrogant about it and demand that the Heisman Trophy engraving begin immediately, while simultaneously saying it probably won’t happen because the committee is totally punishing us for our massive testicles.

Or. ii) We could take him off the pedestal, ease off the gas, and remove the 2 trillion tons of pressure we’ve put on his shoulders. We could accept that he could be due for some regression, and he will most likely experience some bumps and setbacks with the transition of the new regime. Yes, he will still be great, but we cannot expect him to be impossibly perfect.

Verdict: Let’s be idiots because it’s fun to be idiots, but let’s be loyal idiots and appreciate the fact that this gift from the island gods ever came here in the first place.

Long live Shaquem.

I don’t know about y’all, but I didn’t shed a tear when the previous defensive coordinator packed his bags for The Land that College Football Stopped Giving a Crap About. What was his name? Guy Who Probably Knew His Buddy Already Bailed on UCF Before the Liber ty Game? I think that was it. Anyway, the defense was running on fumes by the end of the season, and benefitted from the offense’s ability to outlast opponents in brutal contests of Rochambeau.

HOWEVER! The defense still came up big when it mattered, and all the returning players should buy into Randy Shannon’s decent (not great, but decent!) system and improve upon last season’s numbers. The one lingering concern is the lack of the inspirational spark plug, Shaquem Griffin. Someone will need to step up and become the defense’s superhero, and it would be great if, like, 10 guys did it so we don’t have massive hear t attacks in the stands every week.

Nobody’s perfect twice.

There are two types of UCF fans: those of us who love what Danny White did with the whole National Championship circus, because we know why he actually did it (to prove a point about NCAA corruption, while also honoring a team that wasn’t allowed to play for the “real” championship because of the aforementioned corruption) and those fans who are somehow embarrassed by UCF doing what any other program in our place would have done, whether they admit it or not. The latter fans, in my humble opinion, are doodie faces and should never attend another game again.

What us smar t fans need to understand, though, is that the ire of the committee is real. And the ‘Bama-ring-kissing dumbass fans, coaches, and players who think UCF needs to “know its place” and wait a hundred-f*cking-years to earn respect like the rest of these loser programs are all waiting patiently for that first L to pop up on this season’s schedule. Now, you’d think that everyone from Auburn to South Bend and Knoxville to Los Angeles would be fed up with Alabama and thrilled to suppor t UCF’s Colley Matrix loophole. But they’re all still blindly loyal to the stupid committee. That’s why even UCF’s former coach, the one who secretly agreed to a deal brokered by his best friend prior to the Liber ty game, dumped on UCF’s National Championship when he had the chance. Because he has to play the game.

So, to everyone on the outside – and a few of those aforementioned pearl-clutching, ashamed UCF fans – it’s a matter of WHEN. WHEN is this team going to lose? And then it’s a matter of HOW, as in HOW much hell are these people going to hit us with? But I’m a man who believes in IF, as in IF UCF even loses in 2018, all we need to say is: National champions, baby. (NC, B if you’re in a hurry.)

Can it be done?

A lot of people are going to call me crazy or perhaps even blasphemous for this one, but IF it happens, IF UCF loses this season, the team that will do it will be… the FAU Hootin’ Owls. It’s just the trappiest of trap games, with the ultimate X-factor coach, Lane Kiffin, having nothing to lose and everything to gain, using every dir ty trick in the ‘Bama book to take advantage of the potential flaws of a new coach.

That’s the only game that worries me this season. Don’t be shocked if it happens. But don’t be surprised when it doesn’t, because…

Final Season Prediction: 15-0 American Athletic Conference Champs, Orange Bowl Champs, College Football Playoff National Champions, and OFFICIALLY undisputed (back-to-back) NATIONAL CHAMPIONS, BABY. Words by Ashley Burns @MayorBurnsy photos courtesy UCF Athletics

UCF Tailgate Concert Series presents DYLAN SCHNEIDER IOA Plaza (Spectrum Stadium) Saturday, September 8th • 6pm @DylanSchneider • DylanSchneiderMusic.com

UCF Tailgate Concert Series returns this year showcasing country music’s top names Nashville’s next big thing. This season kicks off with yougn gun Dylan Schneider following on the huge success of last year’s opener Luke Combs. Country music hit maker Rodney Atkins highlights the later part of the season, with Phil Vassar and Morgan Wallen hopping on the Pacifico Mainstage midseason. Local favorites Jill’s Cashbox and Keith Eaton return to rock the tailgate again this year, with the final home performer still to be announced.

Admission to Combs’ performance as part of the UCF Tailgate Concert Series is free. The concert, along with the remainder of the UCF Tailgate Concert Series performances, will take place in IOA Plaza, just west of Spectrum Stadium. Schneider takes the stage at 4 p.m. prior to the UCF-SC State football game, which kicks off at 6 p.m.

Dylan Schneider is wise beyond his years, especially when it comes to his songwriting.

But perhaps even more impressive is Schneider’s ability and willingness to connect with fans on a personal level. “I used to freak out if an artist would respond or interact with me. It’s incredibly important to me that I do the same with my fans.”That love for fans has helped grow Schneider a collective social following of over 1,000,000.

After the release of the debut EP Wannabe in August 2016, his follow up EP 17 was released in October of the same year, landing at #3 on the iTunes Country Album Charts.

In February of 2017, he premiered the music video for his song “You Heard Wrong” with major music outlet Billboard, who called him “country music’s next rising star.” Schneider released his latest EP Spotlight’s On You in April of 2017, and the five-song album hit the #1 spot on the iTunes Country Album Charts. He spent the summer on the road, selling out dates on his own headlining tour, and released “How Does It Sound” in July of 2017, which has already accumulated over 6 million streams on Spotify.

In November of 2017, Schneider signed with Interscope Records as the label’s first direct country signing - coinciding with the release of his new single, “No Problem”. He’s was recently on tour as direct support for Chris Lane’s “Take Back Home Tour” and Granger Smith’s “Don’t Tread On Me Tour”. Dylan is currently headlining his own tour, selling out shows across the country.

With a lot in the works, Schneider’s focus remains the importance of the fan. “At the end of the day, I’m nothing without my fans. When I write, I’m thinking, ‘how is this song going to sing live, and how will the audience react and identify?’ What I do, most importantly, is for my fans.

My job is to connect and show them a good time.” It seems Schneider’s off to a great start in doing just that.

UCF Tailgate Concert Series: Sept. 8th (SC State) Dylan Schneider Sept. 21st (FAU) Keith Eaton Sept. 29th (Pittsburgh) Phil Vassar Oct. 6th (SMU) Jill’s Cashbox Nov. 1st (Temple) Rodney Atkins Nov. 10th (Navy) Morgan Wallen Nov. 17th (Cincinnati) Headliner TBA

42 THE MEG

SCI-FY Fri, Aug 10th In the film, a deep-sea submersible—part of an international undersea observation program—has been attacked by a massive creature, previously thought to be extinct, and now lies disabled at the bottom of the deepest trench in the Pacific…with its crew trapped inside. With time running out, expert deep sea rescue diver Jonas Taylor is recruited by a visionary Chinese oceanographer against the wishes of his daughter SuyiN, to save the crew— and the ocean itself—from this unstoppable threat: a pre-historic 75-foot-long shark known as the Megalodon. What no one could have imagined is that, years before, Taylor had encountered this same terrifying creature. Now, teamed with Suyin, he must confront his fears and risk his own life to save everyone trapped below... bringing him face to face once more with the greatest and largest predator of all time.
