George O’Leary had best polish up his resume (and keep it real this time, George), because he’s on a collision course with the unemployment office.
UCF was really beginning to make a name for themselves, and now have suddenly become totally irrelevant in a conference that is fighting for some recognition. A victory over South Carolina will go a long way to proving that O’Leary can still hang with the big boys (and might, in turn, bring a premature end to Steve Spurrier’s season).
This is a program that was once a threat to the Power-5 teams, now they are looked at as a cupcake week. O’Leary will be watched closely and could be the first mid-season firing we see in 2015.
