Negative--both are almost exactly the same mileage/time wise.

UCF is off the table.. just ask wv and usf fans.. so let it go.. unless the Big 10 expands nothing is going to happen... if they do than memphis or buffalo will replace either cuse or rutgers.. than it will stand pat with 8-8 =16 mix it now has..

Michigan seems to be interested in the BE (coaches anyway). They would make a good travel partner for Cincinnati.

Since when do WVU and USF fans manage the BE. UCF/USF is a huge money maker and improves the BE presence in Florida- tht serves the interest of the BE. It gives us two schools in the state and strenghtens us should one school bolt like Miami did. UCf is very much on the table.

According to MT, the two conferences he wants bowls games against is big 10 and sec. Well, for the big 10, the only bowl I can see you get is the Motor City Bowl and not sure you can get that one because I believe ESPN set that up for the Mac. However, you might since you have a deal with ESPN, That leaves the sec. The only bowl that you can get with the sec is Liberty bowl. That one comes with a price. Music city bowl get over it. It will never happen. Both conferences have supported that bowl very well. That has been discussed to the extreme here on the local radio and have had committee members saying is would never happen. It seems to me that you might have to start a bowl games with both conferences from the new bowl games list.

I would say most UCF fans are very happy where we are at in CUSA. CUSA will continue to improve in all sports as you can see the facility improvements all over the conference.

UCF needs to dominate CUSA football and if this years recruiting is any reflection of that, it appears to be a possibility. UCF basketball needs to improve to be more consistant, and having a real basketball facility for the first time in school history this year, it will continue to improve.

All this talk of expansion is all speculative. I would much rather see the BCS change than for UCF to move into a northeastern conference.
