Uh oh... 4 page thread coming

[Paisa el Toro]

CUSA forces the game?  Laughable.  man, those guys to the west are obsessed with us, obsessed enough to get their coach and AD to whine publicly, get their alumni legislators to threaten legiclation, and to get their conference commish to force the game based on our exit agreement.  Wow.  That is some serious f-ing obsession.

Not to dither too much... but...

1. UCF is east, not west of USF.

2. USF alumni legislators also threatened legislation.

3. USF agreed to play C-USA teams instead of paying money to leave C-USA.

4. O'Leary and Tribble whined of their own volition - they obviously drank the kool aid.

I would point out that:

UCF fans are as obsessed with USF as USF fans are with the Big Three.

USF fans treat UCF the same way the Big Three fans treat USF.

Am I the only one that finds that ironic??

The economics of this series make more sense to continue it than all of the reasons to stop it ... combined.

Hard to believe so many people can't see that.

Holy crap, Jim, you make so much sense. I completely agree with all of your observations. Very ironic circumstances.

I think they'll force the last game of the C-USA commitment to be UCF also since there's only room for one more.

I agree...if the conference pushed it this time, they'll push it again.  Might as well just go ahead and sign the series for another 2 years.

Keep bringin the Knights on, I don't mind the wins.  When they're ready to call it quits, so be it.

Sounds like a 2-1 would be a perfect resolution to this problem, if only FTU would stop dragging their feet ;D

How is it ironic that two groups in the same situation are behaving in the same way?

The way I see it now....

Four different groups starting with the elite:

1) UM, UF, and FSU

2) USF

3) UCF

4) FAU and FIU

You are absolutely correct.

There was a post on the Florida sports board on how FIU wants to play UCF... UCF wants to play USF... USF wants to play the big 3.

There you have it... the food chain of the state of Florida.

I am happy ONLY because we filled 2 more games for the next two years with a 1A team that can be one of my "Away" games for 2008.

Yah, I figured we would come out on top of this with 3 home games vs. these guys, maybe they havent gotten around to it, but I look at this as HUGE fuel to CJL fire, we will be more than ready to play them in Sept...

So....are we really going to be lining up I-AA games till 2013, or is he just speculating?

I also think it's quite funny that UCF is trying to force this game from all sides.  It's like there's no way to avoid them.  

In 2009 we haveâ€â€FIU, Miami, I-AA Wofford, at Indiana, C-USA team TBA (last game of USF’s C-USA commitment), which is only 1 game left...I think they'll force the last game of the C-USA commitment to be UCF also since there's only room for one more.

thanks mag pie

i thought i was going to have to go thru 4 pages
