Next up is Houston in the Hawaii Bowl tonight. Also just curious, is anyone hoping that ucf wins? Regardless of the conference implications, I am chearing for Auburn.

If we were in the Peach and UCF was in the B'ham, I would have rooted for them, but since it's 'tother way 'round... EFF the kanniggitts !!!!!!!!!!!

I always want the P5 to lose in any bowl game against the G5. However no use cheering in this one. A pissed off Auburn team is going to dominate.

Mama_Bull Posted December 24, 2017 Group: Member Topic Count: 1,207 Content Count: 18,470 Reputation: 899 Days Won: 44 Joined: 10/14/2003 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Houston (7-4) is a 2.5 point favorite over Fresno State (9-2). Of course, I'm rooting for Houston. As for UCF, I have mixed feelings. If they beat auburn, where they are 9 point underdogs, the perception of the AAC will look stronger. Since we have already signed 24 players, whatever UCF does against Auburn will have no bearing on our recruiting class. A win might help them to solidify their class, but since Frost is gone, it won't make that big of a deal. Whether UCF wins or loses they will still end up ahead of us in the final rankings. However, if they lose badly, they might not be ranked in the preseason, because Frost is gone. Even though we lose Flowers, we won our bowl game and still have CCS at the helm. So, I'm hoping that we are ranked in the preseason polls and that UCF is not. I realize that is not likely to be the case. Therefore, I am rooting for Auburn to beat UCF so badly that they drop significantly in the polls and we move up much closer to them. By the same reasoning, I hope Memphis loses and drops out of the polls completely, or at least, we jump over them. But, if both UCF and Memphis wins it will just make the AAC look stronger as a conference, with three ranked teams in the final polls. So, either way, we can't really lose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCF wins, it looks good for the Conference. If they lose, I don't give a **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
