UCF claims they are on schedule with USF in 2014


Just curious. If the deal was anything other than a home and home series (meaning USF benefits more), would you be okay with signing a deal to play UCF?

you are delusional to think that USF is good enough to demand an uneven deal in a series with UCF. South Carolina is in the SEC and agreed to a 1-1 with UCF, UCF only agreed to a 2-1 with Texas well b/c they are Texas and we wanted a huge name to open our stadium. There is no way an uneven deal would be accepted with a Big East team. And UCF wouldn't agree to moving the game to the Citrus Bowl either, the on campus stadium was built for that intimate home field advantage and the campus and campus area restaurants/bars rely on that bump in the Fall.

I don't think anyone said we're "good enough".  The fact of the matter is that this game holds a special significance to your fan base... and if you want it bad enough, you may make concessions to make it happen.

If you don't, you don't, and life goes on.  USF remains 4-0 vs UCF, and our 2nd and 3rd string QBs have as many TD passes in one half of one game as your starters had in four games against us.

It holds a special significance to more than just their fan base its the seen the same way by their athletic department.  Why do you think their football coach and other people in their athletic department can't keep our name out of their mouths? They have nothing to lose and so much to gain from these potential games while for USF it's a no win situation.  If they want us that bad you will take our terms or you can go kick rocks.  Beggars can't be choosers.

Didn't UCF get a 2 for 1 from FIU? If UCF is good enough to offer that, then you shouldn't expect anything less from a team that has won all 4 meetings with UCF.

I wouldn't blame you for not accepting an uneven series of game, or an even series where the games in Orlando are in the Citrus Bowl.

It would be smart for USF to offer both an uneven series and/or games in the Citrus Bowl. If you say no, then we go elsewhere.

how many years have to go by before 4-0 and one blowout actually mean something? UCF knows the past was a mess but it's a different program now(USF is a different program as well), there is actually a depth chart in place to remain consistent. But continue to gloat on being successful in the series where the program was coming right out of the MAC and coaching change at the start of it. No other away game on your schedule got the student travel, passion, and tailgate than the UCF game. You won't ever get that with Rutgers. Natural Rivalries are the best part of College Football and Miami, FSU, and Florida will not be your Rival and ECU or Marshall will never be a real rival to UCF.

Wow, where to even begin with this one.

First off, it was 2 blowouts. Your meaningless late TD in the 2005 game doesn't take away from the fact that USF badly outplayed you. If we had a guy who could pass that year, then it could have reached the 2007 trouncing.

Secondly, your not that much different from when the last games between USF and UCF was played in 2008. Your a good team in a bad conference. Regardless of your depth chart I still think you're wise enough (I hope) to see there is a glaring difference between playing crap C-USA teams and BCS programs. Saw your game against Southern Miss last season and you got worked badly on your own home field and they weren't that good of a team. Houston and ECU weren't good temas either and they put a boat load of points on this alleged good D that you had.

Now you're using excuses about a coaching change and coming right out of the MAC as excuses as to why you werent' successful in the 4 games with USF. Your spinning knows no bounds. Your fan base, and even some of your DL, predicted you'd beat us in 2005. You boasted at how well you would do against us in 2007 because you played a close game with Texas. Bottom line is that your fan base still remains an all talk no action group.

"No other away game on your schedule got the student travel, passion, and tailgate than the UCF game." Really? Sorry to burst your bubble, but the FSU game easily had much better "student travel, passion, and tailgate" than any of the 2 UCF games did. USF might have brought 4,000-5,000 people to the 2006 game and maybe a little less to the 2008. Time to face the reality that the USF-UCF game is not what you, or the media, make it out to be. The only reason the 2007 game had the crowd it did was because of USF being undefeated and being ranked so high. That brought the casual fan out to the game. Had we played in 2009 and 2010 I think you would have seen attendance similar to the 2005 game.

Natural rivalries are fostered through great games over the course of time where something is at stake. Most of us here know that we won't get that with FSU/Miami/UF and that is fine. To say we won't get that with Rutgers is a bit off base. it's very safe to say that more is on the line for USF when we play teams in the Big East than if we played UCF. Every single USF fan who was at the WVU and UCF games in 2007 will tell you how much more electricity, passion, etc. in the stadium for the WVU game. Hell, the Kansas game and the Cincinnati game in 2009 had more of that than the UCF games have.

Natural Rivalries are the best part of College Football

No, they're not, winning championships are. Ask any fan of a college program what's more important, beating your rival or winning a conference championship. I guarantee the overwhelming majority will say the latter so just stop this nonsense. Bottom line is you're in a crap conference, playing teams nobody cares about and you're looking for a little pizzazz in your schedule until the SEC comes calling ... If we ever get into the same conference, it will be a solid rivalry but until then it's in USF's best interest to not play the game.
