We will be back at the top..

I was certain this thread was about being on top of the "Bottom Ten" list.

You’ve been a fan since at least 2005 and don’t remember our performances in the BE?  Taking down Auburn, Notre Dame, FSU, Miami, etc. Top 2 In the polls before the unlucky injuries lead to the ‘07 collapse. Consistently in the top 25 and in contention. 

Been a fan since 2002....I remember big wins but this team has never been at the “top” Leavitt and late season collapses...Holtz new error...Taggart got the closest...and now....boring uninterested players...it hasn’t been fun to watch since the Birmingham Bowl 2016....except when DJ and Q said FU$& it and played their way in the tail end of the Bham Bowl 2017

Don’t all rush to support the school at the same time. 

We were competing in a tough BE conference. Just because we didn’t win the conference doesn’t mean we weren’t at the top of CFB.

This thread makes me think of throwing food to a seagull.

No chance of a bigger conference when we are performing so poorly in this ****** one. 

Ucf is way head of us.

Please inform when we were on top of anything?

Actually, I think the OP is right.  It's just that the Debbie Downers can't stand anything positive when they are miserable.

I am of the opinion that the only thing an AAC championship gives us is bragging rights over Central State.  No one cares who won the AAC.  Maybe proclaiming yourself National Champions works for one fan base, but even our delusional fans are too real not to be ashamed to do so.  I believe that winning against the powerhouses will get the football world talking about us again.  Yes, I know it is hard to win those games when they don't/won't schedule us but that is all we have left.  I don't remember many Syracuse or Connecticut games and no one talked about us when we beat them.  But beating Auburn at their house at night?  Notre Dame, Miami, FSU, WVU, Louisville, Clemson - these are the games that people notice.  If a team can go 21 straight wins (Like Central State) and the announcers are quite honest about no G5 team ever getting to the CFP, then the conference title means little and we haven't missed much.

So, I think the OP is right and people just aren't in the mood to hear it.  Our team played better this past game.  I know that, for some reason, some fans believe that we should be top 10 every year.  We will get better.  I see flashes of adequacy.

I actually want to give the OP props for his optimism and positivity....but it’s just so delusional.

We have literally never won any conference we’ve ever been in. To those that say it doesn’t matter because they are/were inferior conferences...I’ve got nothing to say to you I guess. It’s such a ridiculously stupid argument.
