2017 National Champions for real.
Give Bama or UGA credit on Tuesday for sharing the title with UCF
If I were a UCF fan. I wouldn’t share. UCF went undefeated and beat the team that beat the 1 loss contender. I say that without bias and as a Cincy fan.

There. I did my good deed for the day.
Add in the records of the teams y’all beat, plus their bowl wins.
Also, in 1994, #2 Penn Stare claimed they were national champs, not #1 Nebraska. PSU had rings made and campus celebrations. They were mocked a little but held fast.

RE: News Outlets Recognizing UCF's claim to National Championship
UCF is literally taking a page out of the big boy program book and just proclaiming themselves National Champions. Bama, Oklahoma, Tennessee, hell even Kentucky and Pitt all have dubious National Championships they claim....way more dubious than this one.
This is in fact the opposite of a G5 move... it's just copying big time programs.

RE: News Outlets Recognizing UCF's claim to National Championship
The cartel really cocked it up when they let the undefeated team play the team that beat both of the teams in the "championship" game.
It could have been all:
"We're undefeated! We're the champions!"
"You didn't play anyone, you n00bs"
"*crickets*"
Instead it's all:
"We're undefeated! We're the champions!"
"You didn't play anyone, you n00bs"
"Except the team that beat you, huh?"
"*crickets*"
Super fail by the cartel.

We got matched up with the best team not in the playoff... on purpose. They didnt want to risk this scenario and put the team they thought would roll us the hardest.
Unfortunately for them... it just backfired in the most glorious fashion possible... especially with both Georgia and Alabama making the final game.

I think you are exactly right. The wins, losses and matchups worked out perfectly. This is a dream scenario for those who want to bust the cartel... and it's their nightmare.
Gotta again give props to UCF for sticking a dagger in the heart of the cartel.

I can think of a few ways off the top... Collude with... haha, oops! Of course I mean "encourage" the refs in our games against p5 teams to make it harder if not impossible to win games against the p5 teams... especially in a bowl game like this one.
Then of course they'll dog the rankings even harder against AAC teams next year, I'm sure.
Little things like that to push the p5 superiority narrative.
