Yeah, I can see how that exchange would go:

Cocky Bama Fan: "We just won THREE NATIONAL TITLES in FOUR YEARS, We Are the GREATEST!!!" ROOOOOLLLL TIIIIIIDE!!!!

Otown UCF Fan: "Not so fast my friend! UCF beat you back in 2000!"

Cocky Bama Fan: "Oh SH*T! How could i forget! Our national titles mean NOTHING compared to that!

... and he's shut up, cold and proper.

no, actually it finishes off with him saying: #UCK YOU, you got lucky....ONE TIME....

in which i follow up obnoxiously...... 1-0 baby!

and yes, it shuts him up

quo, you seem to play out a lot of things in your head these days to push your agenda, try not to play out my life experience as well.

Alabama is not scared of anyone. To say that shows a lack of knowledge about college football.

There is no way they sign a Home and Home.

First of all, Alabama only made the comment to push their agenda of getting the SEC to extend their conference games to 9 per season.

Second, Alabama has enough money to schedule a 1 and done with UCF. We signed one with Michigan lately. UCF has financial concerns, so let's not pretend UCF wouldn't take a 1 and done at the right price.

I admit, Alabama doesn't want to play at Brighthouse. Not because they are scared, they just don't think our facilities meet their expectations. We have seen this same issue with scheduling FSU, who only wants to visit Orlando if we play in the Citrus Bowl.

everything revolves around money. all decisions on there part are based on maximum revenue.

I am not sure why anyone is surprised that UCF is having trouble scheduling a game. USF had the same trouble just a few years ago where we thought we had several home and homes with SEC who quietly backed out, like Georgia, Kentucky and South Carolina. When a G5 program experiences any success scheduling games suddenly becomes a challenge.

why do fans like to post their all time record against another team in an attempt to make it mean anything today? UCF could be 10-0 vs bama and it wouldn't matter, or help them beat bama right now, it wouldn't make the current bama players fear them, it wouldn't make them favored in the game in vegas, it wouldn't make the casual fan think ucf is better etc etc etc etc

if you are citing an all time record vs another team just out of 'matter of fact', fine, but it has nothing to do with the current situation/state of things in any way, shape, or form

It's safe to say they're bringing it up as matter of fact. No one would be as stupid as to think that it somehow gives UCF an advantage today.

It has nothing to do with your stadium Bama will NOT travel for an OCC game. This year their four games are at home and a "neutral" game in Atlanta vs West Virginia.

The facts are that if Bama offered a 1-1 deal they wouldn't have any problems completing their schedule

Take it up with Matt Hayes. Alabama doesn't cherish the thought of a "potential" OOC loss. To mis-comprehend the implied message in a post shows a lack of intelligence.

Relax. It was intended as a jab only. No one here really believes
that UCF is a better program than UA because of a 2000 victory. In fact, it's more of a mocking gesture that a then small-time program, like UCF, could beat such a "powerhouse" like Bammer.

I know it's hard to understand implied humor sometimes, but come on man!

are you kidding me? you and quo need to go in a room with padded walls.

its a freaking joke dude! as another poster said, i use it to make a jab at my obnoxious friend who is a die hard bama fan. it works and it pisses him off.

END OF STORY..... you and quo need to GET OVER YOURSELVES with trying to turn every freaking thing into an argument over the doom and gloom of the AAC and all things $hitty about the schools in them.

just please........ STFU already with both of your diatribes. its pathetic and old. nowhere did i say that UCF is better or would beat bama.

its not your facilities. its not because they are scared. its because they probably make more money in one home game than every team in our conference makes in all of their home games the same weekend. its just that simple. before they moved to bryant denny out of legion field, they would play away games. i saw us beat them in memphis. same with any real power football school. you are gonna get one for ones with bottom feeders of the colusion conferences, just not the big boys.

Yep, a school like Alabama makes around $6 million in revenue per home game. That's a lot of money to give up.

It "matters" in exactly the same way as Syracuse or Pitt's football runs in the 70s and 80s matter. Those type of fans can't have it both ways. Either history matters or it doesn't. If football history matters to you, then being 0-1 vs UCF will stick in your craw. If all you care about is how your team plays this season, then history is irrelevant.

All that aside, it was a #%£} joke.

Bama did at a non conf road game at then pathetic Duke in 2010 but yes, Bama like others tries to schedule as many home games as possible.
