I know that neither side's fans want to admit that, but it appears evident to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCF build a one year decent record playing a soft schedule, after several years of futility. So the perception is they are on the rise. Whether they are or not remains to be seen. I don't know how they could get to the Miami or FSU level playing a CDOA schedule every year though, they would have to get to a BCS conference to truly be on the rise.

I believe (particularly when reading opinion pieces such as this) that you should always consider the source. A guy who thinks UCF is equal to USF has to have a sense of humor.

Get somebody to type "this program is on the rise" before the season starts, and that program is on the rise.We'll have to see how the season goes. We always do. However, USF getting BCS money sure is nice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
