Have to agree with Finebaum on this.....totally stupid on UCF part to attempt an infringement on the Nat'l Champ game/sponsor (AT&T). Have all the celebrations you want to but this is a stupid move by UCF AD. The NCAA should put a stop to it. Total Kiffin like move to gain attention.

This. Truly one of the dumbest things I've ever seen in sports. Hopefully the AD gets the douche chills enough to stop this nonsense.

Bama should've been in, but not Clemson.

UCF would've gave Bama a better game than that curb stompin' Clemson took.

At least Bama lost to a 10 win team...no team that loses to a 4-8 Syrcause team should be in the CFP.

Good lord.

Act like you've been there. It just reeks of crying and b1tching about not being in the playoffs.

Maybe have a stronger schedule than 77th in the nation then some would take you more seriously.

But they haven't.

That's not how that works. You have to pick the teams in some manner and up to that point Clemson looked like a top 4 team. And I'd be careful with that transitive stuff. Bama isn't that much better a team, they just played that much better a game. I give them lots of credit, but let's not pretend they are vastly more talented or better coached.

UCF better start scheduling tough OOC games if they want that kind of consideration. If nothing else, there's a perception and until you change that nobody takes your undefeated season very seriously.
 
I get that they're frustrated, but to not acknowledge that they had a crap schedule, a suspect defense at best, played a likely unmotivated three loss Auburn and had weeks to prepare is disingenuous at best.

LOL...this cat said "UCF better start scheduling tough OOC games", but Clemson lost to a Syracuse team that would've been in the bottom half of the AAC.

LOL...UCF would've at least put 2 TDs on the board, & Shaquem Griffin would've gotten to Hurts a few times.

Well, maybe they could act like they've been there if they were ever allowed to go there.

I'm starting to think they should have the bowls THEN select teams, so a team like UCF gets a chance to make a statement that the boneheads can actually hear.

UCF would have probably been crushed but they still should have been in. Clemson, uga, our all won major conferences. Bama won nothing. UCF was undefeated. Two P5 conference winners were deemed unworthy, why was team that won nothing good enough. The committee is picking the teams they think will win as apposed to who earned a spot. Why not just pick the teams for next year now? Bama plus three place holdeers.
 
I'm not buying that they played an unmotivated Auburn.

It's Auburn's job to win that game - they embarrassed themselves by losing it.

That said, this is pathetic by UCF.

I don’t care two cents for UCSF but I’m don with this. They are a major school that went undefeated and beat the one team that beat both the teams now playing for the fake NCs. Bama had no business in the playoff, that should have been ucf’s spot. They probably get their rear beat but we had no chance against NE in 1983 either. Under today system The U would never have happen. Beating Arburn makes their bones.

It’s kinda like buying a space shuttle replica from Walmart. Not that you’ve been to space, but at night with all the lights out, you can shine your flashlight on it under the blanket and go “whoosh, whoosh, pkhiouuuu...”

Agreed, I did my undergrad at Miami and my grad work at UCF. This is embarrassing, I root for Miami first but pull for UCF when it doesn't impact Miami. They should be using this as firepower to get into a P5 Conference and should also be trying to schedule tough ooc matchups. Really disappointed with the way they are handling this

I wrote this in the UCF thread, but's it applicable here, with some additional points:

The Big XII "almost" expansion a while back was the last chance UCF realistically had for a chance at the P5 no matter how many students (not always a plus) or their erector set stadium (already needing serious repairs) The landscape has changed:

- The next rights fee round will not be as lucrative. The tech companies, seen as a saviour, are much smarter with their $$$, E$ECPN, Fox (who just did a deal) are hurting and will pay less...Less money to go around to existing members.

- Prestige/Flash in the pan factor. Nobody wants a directional school not named "Southern California" especially one ranked #171 in US News. Flash in the pan? Yeah, Swofford allowing entry by Louisville into the ACC is looking dumber by the day. Academic mismatch, scandal-plagued and not winning even the Tax Slayer. Long term, they are a middle feeder and should be jettisoned for someone like Army (football-only). I'm sure the Louisville debacle has been studied (well, laughed at) by the other P5 conferences.

- As a matter of course, SEC entry blocked by UF, ACC entry blocked by FSU/UM

- UCF still only averages 35,000 a home game at the rusty errector set...Hey, they bludgeoned UM with this year in and out, turnabout is fair play on Dan LeRetard's new favorite team.

- Now throw in a meglomaniac AD, enabled by the meglomaniacs at "the Mouse" and you have one ****ed title sponsor and who knows how many P5 power brokers

Finally, if your NATIONAL CHAMPIONS, why is your HC and his whole staff going to 4-8 Nebraska?

No system will ever satisfy everybody, and I wouldn't have minded seeing UCF over bama, but there's a decent argument for keeping them out. As for bama, after their game it looks like they deserve their spot. Before the game, I think sec bias helped get them in and saban's a **** for flip-flopping on a non-conference winner getting in. Also for being a terrible human being.
 
Wait so they're holding a parade inside of Disney? Who the F at Disney signed off on that, sure inconvenience your guest that you rape for over $100, not to mention are you letting UCF fans is for free or do they have to pay?
 
Anything to put an * next to this SEC championship. I'm all for it.

I'd put some money on UCF whooping the winner of UGA/Bammer.

Neither the dawgs or the elephants can claim this ship without the *



Cheeseburger, Lineage 14.1
 
Phony schedule, phony conference.

They are lucky the GT game was cancelled.

LOl, their AD didnt even try to keep their great coach, just let him waltz away to Nebraska. Who did they hire as HC, BTW?

With that third tier conference, they have to play real OOC games to be considered legit, and they dont.
