Sadly this team doesn't, and never has, come close to the expectations of that team. Yet, as others have pointed out, the hope still remains that this team can reach the Access bowl, although it seems unlikely at this moment.

Yet they've never been kicked out of a Confernce

Never won one either! Lol

it is amazing, you wouldnt realize they are 7-1, with only 1 loss that came with 11seconds only by 4, still in full control of having their best season ever...its beautiful

other than a couple counties around orlando, the whole state is gettting really drunk

Yeah those folks down in Miami really hate being undefeated, that would drive anyone to drink.

This is what people in the other power conferences don't understand. We can not slip ONE INCH. The pressure is enormous. You think TCU is calling for their coach's head tonight? No. Well, that might be a bad example, but you get my drift. They are probably going ballistic because they just lost their outside chance at a playoff spot.

Yet they played in the very first Sugar Bowl, something neither USF or UCF can say.

That said, and unfortunately for Temple, they are at a recruiting disadvantage with less top players to choose from (admittedly Florida is a better recruiting ground then Pennsylvania overall) while competing with the likes of PSU, Rutgers, Pitt, WVU, and Syracuse, all P5 teams. Plus recruits in general prefer warmer climates like Florida over cold weather locations like Pennsylvania.

Overcoming disadvantages is the reason I chose, first the Big East, then the AAC, over other more established conferences. I always rooted for the underdog, even Boise and Utah from the MWC, when they were trying to compete with the big boys and having great years.

Considering the disadvantage Temple, and other northeastern AAC teams have, I think Temple and the other teams do quite well, until they lose good coaches such as Rhule, Golden, etc.

With the advantages UCF and USF have, you'd think they be even more successful then then are. I'm not so sure that either school deserves the underdog label.

Didn't temple win the conference last season? So it's obvious the quote you responded to was directed at USF.

and why should UCF be more successful than they are? their conference history is Independent > MAC > CUSA 2.0 > Big East/AAC (BCS) > AAC. the one year they had a BCS label they went to the Fiesta Bowl and won.

now USF has had a charmed football life and pretty much wasted it. Starts football in the mid 90's, joins their basketball team's conference CUSA 1.0 and then hangs around a couple years not winning anything and gets invited to the BCS show with the Big East in 2005, is there for 8 years and doesn't have anything tangible to show for it.

so give UCF what USF and Temple had for that many years and they most likely aren't in the same conference.

I was expecting a loss from UCF, not Houston

I expected Houston to be the one team that could beat us before UCF game, their defensive frontline was the one that could slow our running game and if you do that you can beat us.
I was more disappointed in this game by our play calling, time management and inability to make plays at the end than losing to Houston. They did what they had to do and deserved the win. Our coaches did not put our players in the best position to win and the players didn't step up at the end to win the game.

It is what it is. Now I will be looking at how they handle losing their first game and dropping from rankings, do they come out mad and fired up or throw another stink bomb and lose to UConn

Be careful what you wish for. You won't have any more luck against us in the AAC title game then you would versus UCF again. 05-nono

FWIW, the first time i recall learning the "be careful ..." lesson was 32 years ago, at the 1985 Final Four. I recall rooting very hard for Villanova to beat Memphis, because I feared Memphis's two big guys, Lee and Bedford, and because Memphis had been the only team to stop Georgetown in the tournament before the finals the previous three seasons, whereas we had owned Villanova in conference play that year.

Recall being quite pleased when Villanova beat you, I figured that guaranteed we'd be back-to-back champs ...
