no one wanted this rivalry and you know that.  We all do.  We wanted a Miami rivalry in the state not UCF.  I will say though that it's here and we might as well make the best of it.

 

I really think we need to stop this superiority attitude we have of "we're so much better than they are." We had maybe 3 seasons where we were better than UCF, but would you have wanted to play them last year? How about the year before? Hell, how about the year before that?

 

Let's run down the checklist:

-Metropolitan area? Check

-Massive student enrollment? Check

-Underappreciated fan base? Check

 

UCF and us are carbon freaking copies of each other, and I for one welcome our new AAC brethren. Let me ask everyone this: Does anyone here hate Miami half as much as they hate UCF? UCF is our rival, and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Trophy should be a compass. We're both directional schools.

 

And we would want to highlight that because  ... ?

That is pretty much true. Both schools are around 50% lifetime winning percentages, so neither one has really lit it up. Being in the same conference pretty much puts the official seal of approval on this rivalry, and even the conference bosses tout it. It is time to get over the superiority line of thinking as our placeholder position comes to an end. Time to get used to the new agenda, 'cause we just might be here a tad longer than some hope.

How about we call it the Sinkhole Series?

How about a 6 foot trident with bulls horns making the outer prongs, and a mini UCF jousting spear making the center prong. I think it could look pretty cool.
