It is in USF’s best interests right now to not engage in this rivalry.  Maybe years down the road when USF is in the ACC they could agree to play UCF for a 2 for 1 deal with 2 games in Tampa…

 

I'd say FSU will block any and all attempts to bring USF into the ACC.

Not if FSU is leaving the ACC…

So wait...politicians allegedly forced the USF - Tinmen "rivalry".  We don't have any pressure to back down FSU on refusing any Fla school having a right to join a conference whether FSU is in it or not?

I don’t think it would be like that. I think it would be the fact that the ACC already has both FSU & Miami in it. Think one needs to leave before USF is added

Well, you said FSU would block.  

There is no limit on state schools in conferences - doesn't the ACC have three or four from North Carolina?

True. Maybe USF gets invited into the ACC before any teams leave. Pretty sure their next tv deal will probably be 3rd behind SEC & Big Ten when all is said & done

No chance, FSU and Miami would not want to elevate us, they fare better being the big 3.

Yeah I do believe we need one or maybe both to leave to be honest. At that point hopefully the ACC gets Uconn to join with USF. We shall see..

This thread proves to me that regardless of people's feelings ( both UCF and USF fans,) USF and UCF are still rivals, and will be so in the future as well. It doesn't matter that we no longer are in the same conference. A USF-UCF rivalry is healthy for both institutions

Rivalries, to me, are in the eyes of the beholder. It's hard to be a rivalry if you don't play each other on a regular basis, playing for something other than stupid Internet bragging rights. It became one a decade ago. The silver lining of the dark cloud of us not moving to the B12 with them is it's not going to be one now.

Now that we're the little brother a "rivalry" makes more sense.
