Hi,
I got backed up this week for a lot of reasons on what I do for you all weekly. Had to wait after MON for the Clemson over Georgia Tech game to be decided. Of course, the Tigers won over connivingly over the Yellow Jackets and remain #4 in my rankings. I had a power outage in my area on WED. My computer was moving slow as well. If I am late on this for your own shows or projects. I know you all putting last week’s slate of games behind you and moving onto this coming weekend. I hope this helps anyway. my apologies. ENJOY!
Sincerely,
Rich Eldridge

PS: I couldn’t find any player from UCF who had a standout performance in their home win over South Carolina State. If you want to pitch me a player’s name, feel free and I will consider it. It was a collective effort for the Golden Knights to have this win.
