AAC needs as many people as possible to fight back and be vocal regarding this crap I wonder why Harlan did not say anything publicly. All he did was retweet White and gave a thumbs up...way to step on the edge fella. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I have said in other posts, the AAC let the whole conference down. It hurt us, Memphis, but most of all UCF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The AAC commish Aresco is the proper person who needs to speak up again on behalf of the conference to the CFP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still trying to embrace this Rivalry so just don't understand the mea culpas about them getting screwed ...... **** em I don't think that most UCF fans think they deserve to be in the top 4. The Massey composite has UCF #9. https://www.masseyratings.com/cf/compare.htm Coaches Poll #11 AP Poll #12 CFP #14 What UCF seems to be complaining about is that the CFP is disrespecting them by not only having six 2 loss teams in front of them, but also 9-3 Stanford. However, undefeated UCF only played 11 games, while the others in front of them played 12 games, except for #7 Miami. Memphis also only played 11 games. So one less game had some bearing on ranking both AAC teams, but it never seemed to hurt Miami before losing. UCF would have more to complain about if they were now 12-0 with a win against GT because I doubt even that would have gotten them into the CFP top 10.

A Hurricane. It killed 90 people in the United States alone and 134 souls overall. If the CFP can look past Clemson losing to the most mediocre of teams because their #1 QB went down (which, correct me if I am wrong, is not a written judging standard for ranking teams according to the CFP), it could forgive UCF for not playing one more game in which 90 people died around game weekend. Which brings another question: WHY IN THE HELL AM I DEFENDING UCF. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my thought...UCF people think we aren’t any good anyway...Why does barely beating us and not covering the spread make them think they should be in the Top 10?
