UCF has had football a lot longer than USF. Them seeing us leap frog them into the Big East and beating them 4 in a row lit a fire under them and they started investing more in athletics and built an OCS.
Now we watched them win 6 in a row and leap frog us into a better conference, which has lit a fire under us to invest more in athletics and build an OCS.
With AAU status, we’ll fit in nicely with the new ACC.
The two schools have such an intertwined history at this point. There is bad blood. I wouldn’t mind never playing them again, unless it’s for a national championship in the playoffs. A real one!
