  1. This has the making of another "outside looking in" conference situation
  2. Not really, more like one side of extreme homers trying to dish AAC = SEC and then there is reality
  3. Must be talking about TCU, the only OOC loss for the razorbacks
  4. lol, Arkansas sucked this year .... still as good or better than half the AAC
  5. Lol, every one of those teams finishes in the top half of the AAC. Maybe even top 3
  6. It took Geno 13 years to win a national title with UConn. How the heck did he last that long without being canned?
  7. On a positive note, the MBB team is on a pace to have their highest FT percentage of all time: http://www.tbo.com/blogs/bulls/2018/01/22/usf-men-on-pace-to-make-history-in-a-good-way/
  8. I'm not going to blame the media, but I get your point. Support of your team shouldn't hinge on the conference you are in or the names on the schedule. The hazy fan support is a pretty big reason why we are not in a "P5" conference. Eventually there will be a playoff system that incorporates all schools and/or a multiple champions for separate divisions.
  9. How in the world has college football survived this long with this level of disparity?
  10. From what I can gather, according to the Sagarin schedule rankings UCF was 73 and every SEC team was ranked higher than that. Either way, the AAC is loaded with power houses like ECU, Tulane, UConn, UCinn, Tulsa. SEC? Those guys are cupcakes .....
  11. As long as fandom is based on the conference we're in and the quality of our opponents, we're probably stuck where we are.
  12. and Bama, Auburn, and Georgia's schedules were ranked higher. What's your point?
  13. It's based mostly on common sense, but we could look at the 3 SEC teams in the top 10 of Sagarin's rankings plus the 2 more just behind UCF's. I appreciate the homerism and would love to see an 8 team playoff including at least 1 G5 school, but comparing an SEC schedule to the AAC is a little farfetched.
  14. Of course it's speculation, they didn't actually play. But even an ounce of realistic, nonbiased assessment tells us that the "weak" SEC this year was far superior to the AAC. The fact that the SEC was "weak" this year is why UCF or USF may have had a shot at .500 this year.
  15. Those points aren't being missed, they just don't apply this year. UCF didn't play that schedule and they don't have those funds. They'd be lucky to be .500 in the SEC this year.
  16. True, especially if it kept them out of the tourney. We could also say"we may suck, but we beat you"
