Real big talk from someone who doesn't know the difference between South Florida and West Florida

Absolutely possible. Shoot, Big10 took Maryland and Rutgers in their conference, maybe they will even take USF since they're used to dealing with trash programs

There will be no Power 4 conference structure, as if the Big 12 disbands, the PAC 12 will be right there with them. They only have USC who sucks and Oregon who also isn't that great. The only two conferences that will be left standing will be the Big10 and the SEC, and I think UCF would fit in just nice with the Big10 with the Orlando media market.

Those "critical structural issues" you refer to was some rust. Independent engineers came in and and said the stadium was OK. The stadium has even since been reinforced, just to eliminate all doubt.

This was actually pretty funny. I got a good laugh out of that. Believe me, UCF doesn't want, need, or care about acceptance from USF. We've smoked you guys in athletics, not even in our league (literally) My post was to provide some sorely needed guidance on how UCF's crappy little rust bucket OCS helped bring this program into relevancy. This thread OP is ready to jump off the Bulls bandwagon along with many others it seems. That's a really big problem and instead of attacking a UCF fan trying to provide some insight, you guys should be going after your USF administration.

Because I almost feel sorry for you guys. Almost.

The self-loathing and pity party on this board is ridiculous. As a UCF fan, I would have loved nothing more for USF to join UCF in a Power 5 conference to see these two programs grow together and continue their rivalry, but rivalry's only matter when both teams actually try, and USF hasn't tried in many, many years. No money has been invested in their football program and it shows and sadly, it's probably too late at this point as the college football landscape is changing, and USF probably doesn't have the 10+ years it will take to grow their program when everyone else is going to be adjusting as well. One other thing: I still find it amazing and hilarious that USF fans (especially ones on this board) still give UCF crap about their football stadium. No, it's not some modern day marvel, it's not the nicest stadium ever constructed, but you know what? It doesn't matter, and it never mattered. Very few people I'm sure ever sat in the stands thinking "wow I wish this stadium had chairs instead of benches" or "I wish it had some of those expensive suites for insanely rich people." The 50 million dollars UCF invested for on campus football was the single most important catalyst as to why UCF's program took off. It allowed students, fans, and most importantly alumni to be on the campus and see the growth first hand. It created a sense of community having it on our campus which means more donations to the college. That's a big part of the reason why the gameday experience is so incredible there. Say what you want, but that rust bucket, pop up stadium will be hosting Big 12 football in a couple of years, and USF will have been left behind.
