Hope you mean the obnoxious fans and not the players. There's nothing NOT to like about the UCF team itself. Their fans are the ones who have soiled the sheets.It’s going to be glorious when LSU puts those losers in their place.
I'm pulling for the under dog here , UCF good kids been kept down being told there not worthy yet they got SPUNK with us against the world mindset.
UCF is very dangerous kind of reminds me of a football team many years ago when they got no respect yet no one wanted to play them.
UCF will fight there butts off they may not win but I assure you LSU and others will know they were in a dog fight running to there locker room.
UCF wins because LSU plays nonchalantly and looks up as the ball goes through the goal post
Agree. I’ll revise my statement.Hope you mean the obnoxious fans and not the players. There's nothing NOT to like about the UCF team itself. Their fans are the ones who have soiled the sheets.
Yes, they will. And then all the next year we'll hear "We would have won if McKenzie had not been hurt" from the fanboys.im calling it right now. lsu will not win this game.
Miami also went out and TOOK respect. Miami went out and played teams in their house and beat them. If people weren't willing to come to Miami, the 'Canes went to them, and took their lunch money. Schools like UCF are doing the reverse. Putting all their eggs in the "Play no one worth a ****, and then complain their way to money" basket. Boise invented it, and UCF is just the latest program to pull it off. UCF could EASILY call Miami and ask for another series, they won't. They won't call FSU either. Those two programs have shown recently and over the last 30 years that they will play mid majors, even come to their barns on occasion.
Yeah, it's sad how much better this AD is in comparison to Miami. His coach is 12-0 in his first season, 2nd with the team, and he hasn't prematurely extended his contract or anything like Flake has done. Still, you have to wonder why UCF hasn't rode the wave and lobbied to join the ACC or SEC.
Yes, their AD COULD get these kinds of games scheduled but refuses to do so unless it's a home and away. It's my understanding they turned down a deal with UF for 2 in Gainesville in one in Orlando. Well, if you're not willing to do whatever it takes to get games needed to make the playoffs, then stop crying about not having any ability to get there.
No, I don't think any major P5 programs are "scared" to schedule UCF.
same thing was said last year when they played auburn. and auburn didn't care about the game and just used it for practice.

They have been trying their best to get into one of the P5s... no much incentive for the any of them to let UCF in.
You have no idea what you are talking about... I live in Orlando and have a son who goes there. They have been trying to get the P5s to play them... no one wanted touch them once they were doing well...
Yeh, the BS gator story... the lizards tried to pull that with us once we started winning ... and SamJ and Dee told them to go to **** with their home two-one away proposal.
Say what you want about old Bobby, but he never shied away from playing us (to his detriment) even when the Gators and Irish bailed out..
Why is it that a school like Houston managed to get OU on the schedule? Why is it that Toledo and Appy St. got Miami? UCF was pure garbage when this set of schedules were created. No one would have been scared of then then. No one is scared now, UCF knows that if they whine, simps will take up their cause. Why risk a loss when you can maybe whine your way in?I agree with most everything you said. However, the landscape of CFB has changed and it's not as easy to do what Miami pulled off 30ish years ago. What Miami did just can't be replicated in today's CFB in terms of creating a schedule like that. Miami was an independent back then so they weren't locked into having to play X number of conference games, which then limits the number of OOC games you can play.
I disagree on the picking up the phone and trying to schedule something with the big boys. I'm pretty sure White, the AD, has done it. Whether or not any kind of agreement can be put in place is another story. I'll agree though that they should just go the route of agreeing to 1 road game deal if that's what it takes...beggars can't be choosers.
Your narrative has more holes in it than the cheese on the turkey and swiss sandwich I am eating right now. But it's all good, bud. If spitting the "UCF is one of the best teams in the country and all the P5 powers are afraid of playing them"-narrative makes you feel better, have at it! Coincidentally, I lived very close to Orlando for several years and my brother is a UCF alumni as well. I don't speak from ignorance.You have no idea what you are talking about... I live in Orlando and have a son who goes there. They have been trying to get the P5s to play them... no one wanted touch them once they were doing well...
Yeh, the BS gator story... all PR...they would never play a good OCC schedule outside of Gainesville unless they are compelled by legislation....

Whew! Glad to hear there were some other details behind why it didn't happen. It was my understanding Bama was simply terrified to play UCF.It was reported that Florida Citrus Sports was trying to have UCF/Bama open the season this year (UCF would replace Louisville). UCF was open to it, but the logistics of moving games around for Louisville and UCF's opening game opponent, along with any potential contractual buyouts were too much to overcome.
