I think Tom Osborne and Frost are VERY CLOSE and Osborne still pulls a lot of weight at NEBRASKA. I saw news stories saying Osborne helped guide the selection of their new AD. Take a look at this video. If Frost does not go to NEBRASKA, I would be very surprised.

Feels good to be hunted by ECU than to be hunting them. Gawd, they used to plaster the Tigers. Time for some good I'm payback for some of that.

I stated CLEARLY that IF UCF WINS and that HOME FIELD IS NO LONGER AN ISSUE in the title game. Do we use the ECU game as a live practice and i get back smart ass remarks about something i did not ask.
I never once insinuated that the game was NOT important to the Access bowl availability. ONLY THAT IT WAS IRRELEVANT FOR HOME FIELD IN TITLE GAME IF UCF WON.
Did not say a damn thing about access bowl or anything else. But he goes off on something that was not even addressed in the original premise presented.
Why is it so freaking hard to get a simple answer to a simple question without having to go through the same bull freaking crap over and over.
Yes, without home field consideration for the conference title game we should completely ignore the possibility of playing in the access bowl. I vote we do not even bother putting starters in at all if we have no shot at home field. Our starters will then be extra rested for the sh!t hole bowl instead of being a little more tired for the Peach Bowl...
In fact, take the hypothetical to the next level. If all we care about is the AAC CCG...and since we already have that wrapped up...if UCF wins, then leave the starters locked in a room on campus. Don't risk the drive to the hotel or stadium.

We should actually just send the starters directly to Orlando now. In case there are delays.
