I just ignore those people as best I can. 

They're high school beat writers after clicks. So don't click if they bug you.

He spells out his reasoning pretty clearly and it's not absurd (even if I don't agree with it).

Calling him a POS seems a little extreme

He's doing it to generate clicks.  Let everyone put UCF ahead of us.  We play them, so we can rectify it.

 this guy is a clown. He can F off. Nobody cares about his terrible opinions. What does he have to say about Troy? How great is the sec when Bama is the only team worth slay in conference? 

Just like that Basketball scandal has shown the entire media, ranking structure is rigged. Not everyone is active in rigging it, but most carry the message forward subconsciously. All it takes is a few influential people to shift things.

We just need to keep handing out business. Go Bulls!

This. Every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

I rather miss the underdog role.

They've worked years to set a narrative, maybe decades. It is hard to change the narrative.

No love for Baker here but I can't completely disagree with some of his points.  While I don't think there's any doubt USF is a better team (yes, I have my green goggles on today), UCF is certainly better than I thought they would be this year and their schedule has afforded them the opportunity to prove themselves against better competition.  The good news is that we will get the chance to prove that we are indeed better than this UCF team that he thinks so highly of.  In the meantime we just need to keep winning.

Exactly, using ESPN and the people at the top they've shifted the narrative to only a narrow set of teams (P5) can play high level football and the rest of D1 is trash. This narrative isn't based in reality though. Every year during ooc play we see the mighty fall. 

Also his baby UF is trash and I hope we get a chance to curb stomp them in a bowl game. If we don't get the NY6 game they should be in our crosshairs
