UC v. UCF - Historical win

What an incredible win tonight. I am sure we have not seen anything like it since we lost Kelley. In fact that is how far back we need to go to see UC football beat a ranked team. But this is better than beating Pitt on the road IMO. We ended the longest conference win streak in history! I could not be happier with Fick. I loved all of his play calling. Style is way in the back seat behind winning ala Tressle ball and the defense was stunning with 4 take away and the dismantling of a freshman phenom quarterback. Also best crowd in the history of Nippert and in front of the ESPN nation. My sister watches it at a bar in Chicago and did not have to ask for it to be put on. The other one was at the game. Very tough games remaking against Houston, Memphis and Temple but if we keep this level of play up we are certainly favored to be in the championship. Much to look forward to. My question is with this win has football turned a corner to be the signature UC program now? We have what may be the best coach outside the P5 with some hopes of holding on to him. We proved we can play on a national stage under lights and beat a ranked team. Meanwhile Basketball seems to be a far cry from claiming any of the above. I think it is time we woke up and smelled the pig skin. For the foreseeable Football is king at UC. Let’s embrace it - Go Cats!
