Now you understand why I applaud UCF for proclaiming a national championship.

No, I don't ...

 Would you attend the conference championship game if we got in? If yes then this flys against your position. If no, then the position you take (getting into a P5) is hurt by a decrease in attendance.

Yes because I want us to win every game even ones that lead to trophies I would throw into the garbage or not even touch if given the choice. I’m a fan of USF because it’s my alma mater and I find our current conference to be an inconvenient part of my fandom and not the reason for it or something to be celebrated.

Simple, yet complex ...... a strange bird indeed ... but as long as you're supporting USF football through thick and thin, sucky conference and all, kind of hard to bust chops too hard.

It's every team's desire to reach the top of the sport, of course. The difficulty with the CFP (or BCS for that matter) is simply that even the strong, proven teams like UCF are not invited to compete for the top--that's a major problem. Until they can address that, the "national champion" should just have an asterisk--it means something, but doesn't mean the same thing to everyone.

Yep some people think it should involve the top teams and some people think it should involve UCF.

Well, THIS year it was UCF. You won't find me on their campaign trail or hoisting their self-proclaimed NC banner (ugh), but I do think an undefeated team that had some solid wins and reasonable SoS deserves to be a "top" team and get a shot--even if it's a wildcard-type game.

CFP > BCS...

Just because it actually requires effort to make the championship game...

It's just like Obamacare...

 

Better than what was before it; but still trash. :FIREdevil:

The fake NC does distract from the impressive undefeated season.

I kinda feel for them, but it's the school's way of handling things. The team deserved a heroes' welcome home from the school (and maybe the city), but the NC stuff just makes them look like UCiF wannabes again. I agree with you.
