They had an explosive O during his tenure. I figured Gus would do well with those players before gradually regressing once they left. Instead they have looked meh all year. Plus big step up coming with the Big 12 Exactly. They were scoring ~45 ppg under Heupel and he's imploded that in literally one season. Save me the "Gabriel got hurt" spin, their offense even with Gabriel in there was noticeably behind where they were a season ago. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThurstontheWelshCorgi 576 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Gus tends to elevate most every program he goes to in the initial years and it's been a tough season this year at times for UCF but I'd be happy if I was a fan of there's. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically had a depleted wr corp but that was about it.. TruesDale would of been nice to have. Big Kat left too but he never did much at Au anyways. We had a pretty loaded roster and while the O-Line wasn't great they were mostly 3 or 4 year guys w experience.

Auburn should have been in a winner take all game against Bama had it not been for poor decisions on the sidelines. All of the standout players are from the previous coach. The late season debacle is because of a culture change. It’s weird because there was never anytime that I recalled the players quit. The only thing was the oline recruiting wasn’t the greatest 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their fans already seem frustrated with the offense, especially after watching Frost and Heupel run up and down the field. Twill and their defense supposedly greatly improved so that's great. With the talent advantage out there, Gus will win his share if he gets good QB's now that Gabriel bolted (big if) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitiful play-calling and offense as usual. I don't believe they've thrown the ball more than five yards down the field Time for a reality check. Heupel's UCF team last season finished 6-4. Gus has improved it to 9-4. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wide receivers without a deep threat or good intermediate route receiver, d line with no pass rush, sub par online with no depth that will require harsin to completely rebuild the unit, and no qb depth. 6-6 finish from Harsin was better than the analysts expected. Next year will be part of the rebuild as well. Essentially, Auburn doesn't have the talent right now to compete in the secw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go 8-4 against your level of competition and then win a bowl game against an SEC team to finish 9-4 has to be a good first year. Those UCF fans looked very much delighted after tonight's game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
