They don't make as much $ doing that. I see you have nothing but silly ad hominem attacks which shows me your level of critical thinking is low. UCF has beaten 4 ranked teams in the last 2 years. What the Go5 should have is their own playoff, clearly the power 5 model is only for the power 5.
They beat two ranked teams last year, #25 Memphis and then Auburn in a bowl game. None of the teams they played this year are ranked. Not a one. You can spin all you want, but they simply don't belong. You can't beat up on the Toledo Mudhens and Durham Bulls all year long and then demand to play in the World Series.

UF has nothing to prove to UCF in anyway. Don't beat up a bunch of cupcakes in the AAC (also know as AARP) then want a seat in the big chair. Also, start playing in a league with some Defense then check back in with CFB and we'll see if there's a seat for you.

AAC? How many knew this even exists?

It should just be called The Other CUSA. What a clown conference.

Imagine joining a conference only to have all the decent teams (basketball teams) vote to leave rather than allow you in.

2017:
#22 usf
#16 Memphis
#7 Aub

2018:

#19 Cincinnati

The rest of your statement is retarded since AAA has the equivalent of the world series.

Have you seen the pac12, and Big12? Even the SEC has fallen down wrt to great defense. You guys are blasting for their schedule but when they try to fix it you complain. Their AD explained the 2 for 1 doesn't work for them. It's simple economics.

Hardly worth posting, but Bowden had nothing to do with that. Clay Stapleton scheduled those toughies before Bowden was at FSU.

Nulls were close to dropping football because of Larry Jones followed by Daryl “press box coach” Mudra and almost bankrupt due to averaging 18,000 or less for about 6 years in a row and being an independent. Clay scheduled those games strictly for the paydays to try to save the program.....they struck gold with Bowden and we got the equivalent of the death penalty with Pell after the Dickey fiasco. ....lucky bastids....

Succinct, concise, and all too true.

end of season rankings are the only ones that are actual rankings. I'm not even going to check but I bet these aren't those.

Cincinnati got ranked beating up on the same crap schedule. If your best opponents are Cincinnati and Memphis, that says it all.

It’s the “everyone deserves a trophy” argument. By UCF claiming a national championship, it diminishes the hard work put in by Bama, Clemson and the other highly ranked power 5 schools who had their brains beat in by facing the best athletes that college football had to offer. It also does a disservice to the athletes at UCF because it engrains a sense of entitlement that could carry on into their future careers.

Let’s rethink this. I had a buddy in high school who studied his ass off, enrolled in strictly advanced courses and graduated in the top 1% of our class. I, on the other hand, took the easy road and avoided the advanced coursework Iike the plague, but still managed A’s. He’d look at me like I had a dick growing out of my forehead if I tried to claim that I too was in the top 1% of our class. What UCF is doing is a complete joke.

Considering the "over-endowment" depicted in your avatar, I think the manner in which your friend looked at you can be readily explained.

we got ranked
Beating up on UT, Charleston southern and Colorado st, vandy, MSU and scar. Our only great win was LSU. We got smoked in our losses.

If we played UCF there's a good chance we lose. LSU will find out soon. Neither of us has the offense to keep up with them.

This is the dumbest post that has ever been made in the history of this board - far too stupid to even respond to. You are a clown.

So then Dan will be 1-3 vs the top 25 with 0 top ten wins once LSU and MSU lose?
If that's what happens, then yes. This isn't a difficult concept.

Do you think fsu was a top 5 team last year? Bc the rankings said they were when the season started. End of season rankings are the only rankings.

Has it ever worked to "talk" one's way into actually being a powerhouse ? I enjoy watching UCF's season-long exhibition games. However, if they continue to win bowl games against "known respected teams" that have played & beaten other nationally respected teams, then & only then will they rightfully conquer this ratings chase. UCF is having fun creeping in the right direction. It's their pomposity of claims that totally miss the mark.

We'd hang 90 on that joke of a defense.

One bowl game doesn't erase the season long injury factor in SEC type schedules.

I just wanted to congratulate you on possibly being the dumbest phucker here
