Anyone else worried about the prospect of playing UCF in a New Year's 6 bowl?

I wouldn't mind playing UCF. I think we would be able to beat them on toughness alone.

Many may hate what I'm going to say but UCF is the future university of the state of Florida, it would be nice to put them back in their place for the time being.

I see us playing the Pedophiles in Orlando or Sparty in Tampa.

That being said, seeing Cincy end this farce on national TV Saturday night would be enjoyable.

They will do everything possible to get Mullen set up against Urbie.

For sure, if feasible = the ruler is TV sports drama, not football performance.
Besides, saw a photo of coach Heupel otherday. His thumb was in a boot.

Worried about playing UCF.....are you ****ing kidding me?

No I am not worried about it.

I agree. We keep saying we're the best team in Florida. It's time to prove it. UCF only plays cupcakes. We do great against cupcakes also. The only way to win championships is on the field. We're still rebuilding, but the team needs experience. Win or lose we would be a better team after the game.

I would be more worried about such a boring, lackluster bowl matchup that nobody outside the state of Florida would care about.
But to answer the question, we could run it down their throats and UCF couldn’t do anything to stop it. By midway in the third quarter they’d be gassed, beaten and begging to go back to 1-AA (I know, it will always be 1-AA to me).

Pah lease, big scary UCF gave up 750 yards and 40 points to Temple last week. Friggin Temple, the only team they played this year with a winning schedule.... everybody settle down

No. Next question.


There’s definitely a possibility. We’ll be 13th at worst this week, and top 12 almost guarantees you a NY6 game. Would be nice if LSU would drop a game the next two weeks though. I’d say at worst we’re looking at the Outback.

How many teams can a conference send to a NY6 bowl? Assuming Lsu wins out and UGa loses to Bama, they'd both definitely go to one in your scenario. Just thought there was some kind of a limit on how many a conference could send. At 9-3 and 2 wins over FCS teams, I can't see them giving us one. We may not move higher in the poll due to our schedule, the next 2 games definitely won't help our SOS.

Rather play Penn St, they don't have a defense. Plus we never beat Mich or Mich St

If we're worried about a traditional bottom feeder then we might as well shut the program down. Safe to say there will never be a day where UF is worried about playing UCF.

Well... last year. Of course, last year I would have been afraid to play Central Montana or Central Idaho also.

But this isn't last year. Central is still just a 1AA team. They have maybe 1/4 the talent of Vandy.

Indeed. I'd like to see the SEC get a tie in with the Pac 12 and/or Big 12 (outside of the Texas Bowl).
So fuggin boring. Do we play Sparty, Pedo, Meatchikin or Iowa? We play those same fckkers more than we play the SEC west.

At least trade the tie ins every few years.

Those are the teams that look like world beaters when we play them.

No...we wont lose to the Idahos or Central Flas on the schedule any time soon. This isnt Chimp trying to sit on 1 score leads.

Cincinnati is a far superior team and will beat them this week handily.
