    That's the thing. I'm not trying to "win." I'm trying to "educate." Facts are Facts. Realities are Realities. Florida fans are similar. They keep living on what they did last decade, not this decade. UCF fans only have this decade to live on. But that's all it took for Miami as well...

    Then why comment, and further answer? Clearly you do enough to do so.

    Nebraska and UCF bowls

    That would make us 2 for 3 in NY bowls in the last 6 seasons. Only 9 "Power" programs have even been to at least 3 bowls in the last 6 seasons, and there are far less than have at least 3 wins! That's why the "participation trophy" argument gets old. Beating a #5/#6 doesn't matter. Beating a...

    I am a passionate College Football Fan ... objective. Let's talk Boise. Let's talk Nebraska. Let's talk Florida. Let's talk Iowa State (UCF nailed it on Purdy when recruiting, but he picked Iowa State for playing time, and good for him too). I've been an UCF fan since Division II, no not...

    Nebraska and UCF bowls

    So NDSU and UCF are equivalent when it comes to SOS? I know NSDU is a damn good FCS team, but they still would be more like an AP Top 50, not an AP Top 10, like UCF. And yes, UCF has been an AP Top 10 team 3 out of the last 6 seasons. It's funny when people use this argument, when UCF has...

    Nebraska and UCF bowls

    Which was a joke. It was purposely designed to be a joke, one no team would take ... other than USF. USF was willing to settle for less than half of what Florida pays FCS teams. Although it was damn funny when Florida paid $850K to Georgia Southern to lose at the Swamp back in 2013. ;)...

    Nebraska and UCF bowls

    Really?! Please point out where. Because I think I was pretty factual. Arrogance? Arrogance about what? That we really didn't accomplish anything before this decade. We just barely got started as an independent in '96, got our butts kicked on the road, continually (moral victories don't...

    It's actually $375K per trip to the Swamp, but yes, exactly that bad. USF signed the worst deal, and they did it with Louisville as well. Especially since Florida pays $800K to FCS teams to come to the Swamp. Louisville had to pay similarly, over half a mil, for FCS teams, and USF got less...

    Likewise since fall of last year on the UCF board, with Husker fans. There are a few who have 'wised up' and actually are great UCF board members now, but they are very few and far between. As always, arrogance and ignorance don't mix, don't care who the fanbase is. But when UCF fans have to...

    Not how good *I* think the AAC is ... but several computer rankings. The only ones that don't are historical-based Sagarin (although Sagarin RECENT says otherwise) and the High School Recruiting biased ESPN Football Power Index (FPI). Let's face it, the ACC's SOS sucked this year. And last...

    Nebraska and UCF bowls

    Their 1 loss (and nearly a 2nd) was when they had 3 injuries, and all 3 players were back for the 2014 Fiesta Bowl. The difference between the Big XII and SEC is that the Big XII didn't make excuses when they never led UCF in the 2014 Fiesta Bowl. That's 120 minutes in 2 NY bowls, only trailed...

    Ummm, in 120 minutes, we've only trailed 10 minutes of them ... against teams ranked #5-7. So ... how does not playing a P5 schedule factor into that?! I'm not bragging about anything. I'm merely responding to the fact that the AAC's SOS is not as bad as people think, and higher than the...

    To the tune of a quarter billion dollars in free marketing. Even if UCF beats LSU, it's very unlikely UCF will declare another NC, probably not even if Oklahoma wins (leaving no other undefeated teams). 2017 was a freak year with no undefeated teams but UCF, and UCF got to beat a team that...

    It's half of what Florida pays a FCS team to play at the Swamp. USF signed the same with Louisville, 2-for-1, while UCF got a home-home with Louisville just a few months later! USF fans were livid, and thought the 2-for-1 arrangements were stupid, both fiscally and from a precedence...

    That's what they always say about UCF. But if that's the case ... Why is UCF going for its 3rd NY bowl win in 6 seasons? And why does UCF have more players in the NFL than a number of Power programs? Seriously, this is so f'ing old, and you wonder why UCF fans are bitter in ways that have...

    Nebraska and UCF bowls

    The AAC's SOS isn't that bad, especially not compared to the rest of the G5. Also, stop using ESPN FPI. It's a joke. According to the FPI, 7-5 Miami is #21, and UCF is #23. Look at Miami's games and its opponents. Why is FPI so pro-P5 and anti-G5? High school recruiting rankings make up...

    Nebraska and UCF bowls

    UConn got destroyed in its only Fiesta Bowl appearance. Most Big East teams did in NY bowls after 2005, and especially 2008. UCF, on the other hand, was a 17 point underdog, yet never trailed the Big XII Champion in its prior appearance. Huge difference! Especially since the AAC's NY bowl...

    Every drive from SW Orlando to East Orlando in rush hour traffic? The I-4 corridor is the 3rd worst in the country (after I-5/LA-SD and I-95/DC). This is the problem with mid-week games. Working people get into the game late, and students leave at half-time (every game). That's why we get...

    So you're saying North Dakota is as populous as Florida?! And they have the same percentage as UCF in other states?! Also ... what does this have to do with ABC/ESPN TV Ratings?! Because that's where the money is!!!

    UCF Playoff Criteria

    Wait?! You guys start a thread on UCF, and then say no one cares about UCF, and the TV ratings say otherwise (and have since starting late last decade, and are even higher the last 5 years), and you post this in response? NY Times, USA Today and even ESPN itself (although not lately, as the...
