Patiently waiting for the day that UCF Twitter realizes that Scott Frost is not the enemy. That man gave us everything he had and even stayed for the bowl game (which he absolutely didn’t have to do). So you all need to chill out with rooting for Nebraska to lose

I wonder if Texas athletics realizes that 90% of the sports world would’ve forgotten about the loss in a mere matter of hours if Terry hadn’t lost his mind over a hand sign. But now it’s a days-old national story with Texas at the butt of the jokes. Simply incredible.
