More excited ..... those actual figures are keeping us out of a P5.

I thought it was the OCS. Or is our lack of OCS the reason he gets the figures?

We had much better attendance in the Big East than many of the other schools who went to a P5 conference, so, I disagree that is the reason.

When the Big 12 was looking at our attendance, they had Big East numbers and USF attendance was second in the conference and averaged over 45,000.  

They realize that we are now in a G5 conference and that by itself greatly decreases attendance.

Still our announced attendance, as compared to those announced for other AAC schools, is not all that bad. Since the other schools do not report actual attendance, they can't know what are their real numbers

Would you be saying the same thing if we were 13-0 and had beaten Auburn in the Peach Bowl?

No one outside of us would give a **** about us either.

Come on, man .... you think an OCS would stop the TBT's Jimmy Olsen from ferreting out those numbers anyway?

Well, at least you are consistent.

I'm sure there will be more than one mention about UCF in the national championship game and whether the playoffs should be expanded to allow for a G5 representative. In any event, the AAC has become a topic for discussion in a positive light and that is a good thing.

I always thought of him as the best of both Woodward AND Bernstein.

Wish we “were on the cusp of a tournament bid.”

Love Q being prominent up in front. Was a little surprised they didn't put the kaniggit poster-boys on there instead of near the end.

Everyone has to have a mission, and these strategy points are incredibly specific & transparent--for that I give them mad credit--that's hard to do but it sets some real targets and creates public accountability.
