USF would be a money maker for the Big12 with an annual USF-UCF match up getting huge ratings. Also helps give a stronger Big12 presence in Florida for recruiting. 
 

I’d much prefer USF play in the the ACC though. Much more respected universities and more same time zone travel. 
 

But does USF want to be in an ACC without FSU, Clemson, or UNC? And that needs to travel to Cal and Stanford? 
 

If we eventually end up in a power conference (Big12 or ACC) I’d like to resume the annual matchup with UCF. It doesn’t benefit UCF until USF is in a better conference and a better team though so UCF won’t agree to it until then. I think the match up is good for both programs because it brings the fans out and has good ratings. Ratings drive the media deals. 

Good question. Either USF is in ACC & has an annual game against Miami or thet will be in big 12 having an annual game against UCiF. Either way I think USF will end up landing in a good spot as long as we start winning

I checked his account, and it all looks like unbiased objective statements to me.

Eventually all of this greed will decimate the national fanbase.  The more exclusive they make the national championship process, the less fans they will have.  I am a USF fan, and I'm not going to pi

Everyone involved in managing our pathetic program over the past 10 years should be fired out of a cannon into the bay.

What about years where both teams are bad? Would ratings work for those seasons?

If we get in the ACC why wouldn’t we also have an annual game against UCF? That’s an easy ooc game for rivalry week.

I have not missed dealing with their fans.  Let's not reestablish a bad relationship.  I'd like people to never think of us and UCF together.

Yeah this is my take. Never associate with them again. They used that relationship to launch past us and were miserable along the way.

 

I'd prefer a rebuilt pac over the big 12 just to avoid them.

Best not to stay friends with an abusive ex unless they can help you out in advancing your conference realignment interests.

Let’s see if USF can get into the ACC first before we worry too much about that game.

Let's see if USF can win a game (FBS level game) before we worry too much about anything else.

Odd to blame UCF for USF’s failures.
 

I’ll never understand the POV of not wanting to play your biggest rival.
