This is why we rankings are meaningless to us

[michibull]

Per the new rankings, barring an implosion from the SEC, ACC and Big10, UCF will be left out again (which I find hilarious, haha). The way the top 7 are set up, there are fail safes in place to keep the AAC out (even after a possible back to back undefeated seasons). This just supports the fact that all we should worry about is Conference Championships and outside of us getting into a P5 when the next round of expansion happens, a Natty is just not feasible. This year was rough, but next year is on the horizon. Let's wait and see if there are changes made and always support South Florida, Go Bulls!!!!

Step 1 - Beat Tulane.

Step 2 - Worry about where we're ranked in the College Football Playoff.

UCFs schedule did not warrant inclusion

we are the 6th best conference at best and their OOC was not good.

truth is you could say the same about some p5 teams as well.

 if a g5 team ever expects to make the playoffs they need to load their OOc with tough p5 programs

Rankings are indeed meaningless to us.  We need to focus 100% on winning our division of this 6th best conference we live in.   Maybe then we can win the AAC championship.  Until that happens, there is no point for this silly “what if we were to win out” fantasy scenario crap.  The AAC is a bad conference and we are an average to below average performer in said conference.  Reality sucks sometimes.

So shouldn’t we be ranked because of our quality losses?

please tell me you are not just now realizing this.

I know that I as well as many others on this forum have been stating this situation for quite a while now. This is not news or even a revelation (well for most).

I have always been of this mind frame, I'm just reiterating it because there are a lot of people on here who get caught up in the rankings, especially the preseason rankings.
