Again...Please answer where should UCF be ranked since being undefeated is all that matters......Not how you win or who you beat(THOSE ARE YOUR WORDS).

When the first playoff rankings came out no one on this board knew what would happen between then and now. Every prediction was pure speculation. What has happened since has put us where we are regardless of any speculation on this board. Enjoy the moment of where we are. Meanwhile the one sure way we will. be in the playoffs is win out. We may get in or be left out with a loss is again pure speculation. My speculation is we win out but regardless of what happens this team.has been one of my favorites of all time because they have done this against all odds according to all.ths so called experts when the season began. Most here did not expect us to even be having this conversation this late in the season. Just enjoy and Go CANES

Now you're backing away from your argument the same way hockey guy tried to, introducing a G5 team into a P5 discussion. Nobody is expected to have to qualify each and every comment with *applies only to P5 teams* So unless UCF somehow supports your argument that winning out is all you need to do, remember, that is YOUR position, then I don't know why you bring it up. My position is that winning out isn't necessarily all you need to do. I put us 4th in the part of that comment you conveniently left out behind ND who has lost a close game to the #1 team rather than being blown out at home by an unranked opponent.
But if you're dying to know, I'd have UCF around 8th, ahead of any 2 loss team not named Auburn.

I like where you are headed with this, but I think we'd play Alabama.
No way an 11-2 Ohio State team gets in over 11-1 Bama with that 30 point loss to Iowa on their resume.
It's the same argument the committee gave last year for having Ohio State in over PSU ... The fact that PSU's loss to Michigan was by so much.

Stop with the word semantics......UCF Matters.
If your premise is Miami should be ranked #4 in the initial poll because all that matter is that Miami is undefeated.....than UCF needs to be ranked just as high.
But since you have answered you ranking of UCF at 8 shows that
1) Who you beat matters
2) How you beat them matters
This is in DIRECT CONTRADICTION TO YOUR PREMISE that at the week 10 rankings Miami should have been ranked higher solely because they were undefeated.
You conveniently argue out of both sides of your mouth........Schedule and Style points matter during X, but not when it comes to Miami in the Week 10 rankings.
Thank you for proving my point that your arguments are based upon false tenants the you conveniently slip in and out of when necessary.

If we lose to Clemson (assuming we beat Pitt), we better hope Alabama and OSU win out so we get the 4th spot.

Now this tard is talking about down votes (even though he's the only one using the function). You're one special kind of slow [MENTION=17436]Loose Cannon[/MENTION] .
My main point in the initial thread (and continues to be) that getting all wrapped up in a pretzel about a week 10 ranking is retarded. There were literally 1000's of scenarios that could/would play out bitc hing along the way is pointless (and when I mean bit chinging you were in a tizzy).
Any common sensed individual knew that If we handled business against ND and the remaining games (up to the ACC championship) we'd be sitting pretty. Which we are.
But please continue with the heal digging. You and jagr deserve each other.

You know what's going to really be chaos-- if South Carolina upsets Clemson.

or GT beats Georgia or Michigan beats OSU or WV beats OU. Still dozens of crazy scenarios could still play out. God bless college football.

You're delusional! Nothing more, nothing less. Because Miami would possibly be No. 4, if they had contempt for Miami. dUh.
You're ' pizzing into the wind! ' Because MOST of those scenario's won't take place this weekend. dUh.

Ain't going to happen! dUh.
Herbie, and a lot other CF pundits, opine that Miami is IN if they lose a NARROW game to mighty Clemson! hUh.
Then U, and your Cane buddies, better root for mighty ND this Saturday. Because a 10-2 ND is better than a 9-3 ND. Also, that would be another ' quality ' ROAD win over Stanford. dUh.

No, you were dead wrong. Even assuming others did not lose in front of us, which you keep pointing to, we still would have jumped into the top 4 if we remained undefeated. There is no denying that. One example proving that point is the committee putting us over Clemson, notwithstanding the fact that Clemson won.
The reason why the committee had us AND Wisconsin outside of the top 5 a couple of weeks ago was the absence of marquee wins. The committee thought we would lose to ND, if not Va Tech. They drew that conclusion, because of our litany of close nail-biter wins against unranked teams, especially the awful UNC. But we kept winning, so they recalibrated how good they think we are.
That's what many of us back then were trying to explain to you and others. If we beat Va Tech and ND the committee would recognize that we are a legit team, and improve our rank, irrespective of those other one-loss teams.
Another example eviscerating your contention that we did not control our own destiny is the committee putting us ahead of OU last week. If your nonsensical argument were correct we would never have jumped OU, because they did not lose.
You were wrong. Stop fighting it.
