Milton and the UCF offense showed a major improvement between year 1 and 2, but IMO much of the credit also goes to RBs, receivers & OL who understood the system much better and gave Frost more play calling options. This makes me think the improvement will be less at Nebraska. JD Speilman, Mo and Warner are the only experienced skill players returning, and if bad luck happens we may not have Mo, and JD could be hindered by concussions. Throw in a new center, and this offense does not have the same level of experience with Frost's offense as the UCF team did in year two.

Here are comments about the 2017 UCF depth chart before their first game:

Of note on the depth chart:

• There are 15 upperclassmen listed on the defensive two-deep, including five of six on the defensive line.
• The Knights list 15 total freshmen on the depth chart, including 10 true freshmen.
  • Seven of 10 true freshmen are on the offense and four are wide receivers.

OFFENSE

• After setting a UCF freshman record for completions in 2016, McKenzie Milton returns to lead a young group of quarterbacks.
  • Freshmen Noah Vedral and Darriel Mack, Jr. are both listed as the backup.
• A pair of sophomores are on the depth chart at running back with last year's leading rusher Jawon Hamilton and big play threat Adrian Killins, Jr.
  • Junior Taj McGowan is also in the mix after rushing for 4.5 yards per rush last season
• At tight end it is a trio of seniors on the depth chart as Jordan Akins, Jordan Franks and Michael Colubiale lead the way.
• Tre'Quan Smith UCF with 853 receiving yards and five touchdowns in 2016 and is back to lead a young group of wide receivers for the Knights in 2017.
  • Four true freshmen join Smith, junior Cam Stewart and sophomore Dredrick Snelson as the seven receivers listed on the depth chart
  • Freshmen Gabriel Davis, Emmanuel Logan-Greene, Marlon Williams and Otis Anderson will all look to see time on the field in their first season in Black and Gold.
• Veteran starters at tackle Aaron Evans and Wyatt Miller will look to lead the offensive line again this season.
  • Upperclassmen Tyler Hudanick and Chavis Dickey are also atop the depth chart at guard, while sophomore Jordan Johnson moves to center for 2017.

Although their situation may have been slightly better than what Nebraska is returning, it doesn't seem too far off.  Thin at WR experience with 4 true freshman making up the top seven wide receivers.  Two starting tackles returning on the offensive line.  A sophomore moved to the center position in 2017 starting.  2nd year starter at qb.  RB seems like the only spot where they had slightly more experience returning.

Not saying you're a bad guy figuratively or otherwise.  Just saying both your and BBs behavior is embarrassing.

I'm not embarrassed by it.

Edit: I'm sick of this quit crap. I haven't seen guys quit or being cowards, so I'm going to fight against this crap.

I'm not talking about dads and I didn't call anyone on our team a quitter or coward.

And @B.B. Hemingway, you're not helping the situation with your embarrassing behavior either. 

 

Good grief, you and yort are acting like 12 year olds.  

Huh, I'm calling out the guy calling our players quitters and cowards; and just wondering what makes him so great the he can make those assessments.  But people are telling me to sober up?

@yort2000, Wanting to fight another Husker fan because of some stupid disagreement on a game thread?  Go sober up because honestly you're embarrassing yourself.

And I'm the bad guy?

Good.  PM me where and when you would like to meet.  I would like to meet such a strong and successful winner that can call other people quitters and cowards.

Whoever eye rolled me.  I'm not the one calling people quitters and cowards on the internet.  I'm here supporting the team and players that make up that team.

Cowardly

I live in Missouri and would love to meet up with you to determine exactly what cowardly means.

My fear is this o line has ruined adrian and now he will have happy feet and never be able to make a sound desicion.

He has had time.  He does not have the internal clock yet.  Waits too long and holds ball too long.  Needs to get to point that he knows it's time to try to run or throw the ball away.

I love this offense. We just need to graduate some slack on defense and get some athletes in there and this team is going to dominate the West. You can see it.

And yet the offense pretty much left the defense on the field for the entire first half.

Are you 11?

Not sure what any of that has to do with the Huskers....

 

(Since you asked: I do pretty darn well)

Just trying to get perspective on your background for being able to call people quitters.

Poor guys.

So, tell me what great sh(t have you have done with your life. How are you some great f'ing winner?  Huh?

Just now, B.B. Hemingway said:

There's the quit.... 

Man, this s#!t just pisses me off.  You don't think they might be worn out from playing two games worth of defense in 2 1/2 quarters?

Honest question. When Bo moved to the B1G, he underestimated how it was to play in this conference.  It’s only game 5, but is it possible this staff underestimated or didn’t truly understand this conference.  Just trying to find some sunshine instead of we are talentless....

This is the biggest BS narrative.  Football is football, it doesn't matter the conference.  How do you beat these slow lumbering time possesion teams.  Score points.  We held them to two field goals at the beginning.  To beat them, they score 3, then you score 7, they score 3, then you score 7.  Now the pressure is all on them, because they are not built to score points quickly.  We just didn't score the 7s.

Dedrick Young is just not playing good football, guys.

He does not have football instincts.

Just now, lo country said:

That TD, I’m not sure...guys out of position.  DB’s not looking.  Are we really that s#!ttie ref talent.

That was Dedrick Young's guy and he basically just turned around where he was standing and watched him catch the pass.

Just now, lo country said:

I knew Ferguson was getting it.  Why didn’t our defense...

Young.

You forgot moral victory #3.

Looks like Whisky is content playing the field position game and running the ball slowly but surely. If we play clean and make some halftime adjustments can we compete in this game?

Wear out the defense and blow it open in the 4th quarter.  Sound familiar.

This. Staff has instructed him to quit kicking down the middle. 

Well they've done a good job of screwing up his head.

Need more guys attacking Taylor when he gets wrapped up.  Hit Close to los a couple times and pushed forward 5-7 yards.

1/8 of game already over
