Do you support a continued UCF vs USF series?

Edit after hearing the full pres conference, I think the schools will play, but less often. T Mo the AD likes regional play, so he mentioned a group of Florida teams that he wants to play, USF is in that group.

I hope USF wises up and says NO.

The fact that you move to the conference that Texas and Oklahoma left, and many before them, does not make you guys any different.  So there should be no reason to play you.  Our out of conference is full of real P5 teams - including FLa teams.  Not trying to be mean, but teams that actually have functioned in a P5, not got promoted to plug the holes.  You guys WILL ALWAYS BE UCF.

Sad attempt Brad, UCF is P5.

I would like to see the series continue. It's the only natural rivalry each one of us has.

UCF just made the decision that playing schools in exciting locales such as Ames, Iowa; Manhattan, Kansas; Stillwater, Oklahoma; and Lubbock, Texas was more important than staying in the same conference with a school only 96 miles away with a “natural rivalry”. If UCF doesn’t want to be in the same conference as USF, then why should USF continue the series, or play UCF in any sport for that matter?

Having traveled to Lubbock once a month for three years, I can assure you that UCF athletics will soon find out that DFW means “Delayed For Weather”. 

UCF made the decision to move on; USF will do the same. 

 Hope that the move works out for your program.  Good luck.

The UCF begging was always a moral equivalency act that benefited them and not us.  And now you see the results.  Joy.

without question, this is our most organic rivalry. both fanbases genuinely hate each other.

I don't want something forced like the civil conflict as our big rivalry game

Yes.  Eventually, we will get our heads out of our asses and it's a P5 matchup now.  It will help us win our "National Championship" lol

Or, depending on whose side you’re on, in the best/worst case, ruin their “National Championship” push. Say what you want, that is usually our most competitive game of the year, even in our lowest of down years. I’ll gladly take that over a yearly showdown with FL powerhouse….FAU.
