Lol delusional bunch...
Going undefeated in the AAC is nice...it doesnt put you in the same hemisphere as Bama
How many times are you going to troll the same ridiculous/lying statement? I thought that you were an expert troll machine.
because people keep dissecting this and giving it serious thought...which is frecking HILARIOUS
Also, I am moving on from trolling. I think I am the village wise man at this point.
If you said 10 to 14 points, than you would've received no reaction whatsoever, at least from me. But 28 points? When several other lessor teams than UCF lost by less. You may have dropped your troll moniker but certainly need to raise your game to enter the kingdom of the wise men.
Lesser teams?
I'm guessing you mean Colorado State? They scored 13 garbage time points. There is no telling how good or bad FSU would be if they hadn't lost their starting QB in the game against Bama. I feel confident saying they wouldn't be competing for the National Title but they certainly wouldn't be 2-5.
UCF is no where near the level of Tennessee, Arkansas or Texas A&M on a program level.
Ole Miss is gonna be down for a while but they are a better overall program too. They lost 66-3.
Vanderbilt who I will say UCF is better than consistently lost 59-0.
Fresno State lost 41-10.
The biggest issue with AAC fans is they think because they have a better record they are better. They do not take into account anything else. It makes you look like you know nothing about sports at all.
Typical post "We're 10-0, why is 8-2 Florida ranked ahead of us?"
You refuse to take into account Florida would have had a top 20 SOS and the AAC school would be like 80 or 90 sos 60ish at best most cases.
People run their mouths about 1 loss Notre Dame saying they shouldn't be there lol.
They are 7-1 with a 1 point loss to #1 Georiga.
They have beaten USC, NC State, Michigan State.
Yes ECU fans we all know you've destroyed NC State in the past but it's irrelevant this season.
No one is saying that in these 1 game scenarios a team outside the P5 can't win. It's happened and will continue to happen. There are some G5 programs better than several P5 programs even with all of their advantages. The problem is some of you actually believe that you could compete in a full length season and that's just not going to happen as is.
As good as TCU was and as good as Utah was it took those programs time to adjust. Louisville came from a BCS conference into the ACC it was different but they still aren't competing for the conference.
TCU was a way better NON power team than anyone not named Boise State. That includes UCF, Memphis the last few years and Houston.
02 10-2 (6-2) Old C-USA
03 11-2 (7-1) Old C-USA
04 5-6 (3-5) Old C-USA
05 11-1 (8-0) MWC
06 11-2 (6-2) MWC
07 8-5 (4-4) MWC
08 11-2 (7-1) MWC
09 12-1 (8-0) MWC
10 13-0 (8-0) MWC
11 11-2 (7-0) MWC
12 7-6 (4-5) Big 12
13 4-8 (2-7) Big 12
After a couple of seasons in the Big 12 they finally broke through.
14 12-1 (8-1) Big 12
15 11-2 (7-2) Big 12
Then like most teams, they had to suck it up and rebuild a little bit.
16 6-7 (4-5) Big 12
Now with their resources, they are competing again but not for the playoff unless they win out which will be tough.
17 7-1 (4-1) Big 12.
The point is. No matter how dominating you are in 1 game situations or in a non power conference you are not ready to compete with those conferences in a season long battle. Those teams have depth you couldn't imagine having and some of their worst recruits are as good as your best.
UCF beat Memphis this season @ UCF after only playing 2 games in 5 weeks prior, it's nice when you have fresh legs I think UCF is better but not that 40-13 better. Maryland is looking like they'll finish 5-7. UCF didn't have to play Georgia Tech.
Navy is now 5-3 with a loss @ Temple who has 5 losses.
What is SO impressive about your schedule or team that makes you think you could compete on a national scale?
Alabama's schedule:
Full STRENGTH FSU
Fresno State
Colorado State
Vanderbilt
Ole Miss
Texas A&M
Arkansas
Tennessee
Still have
#19 LSU
@ #16 Mississippi State
@ #14 Auburn
Even without the back end games their schedule to date is still better than yours. UCF is a good team as of right now, but there is nothing that says you should be ranked higher or compete for anything more than a NY6 bowl which you'd get by default if you win out.
I don't think think UCF would be undefeated against even Alabama's current schedule.
Come back down to earth and enjoy what you get until Aresco fixes this. In 5 years when the conference is getting 10 million per team with better overall resources, better bowls, and better facilities throughout we can talk. There is ZERO evidence other than a bunch of fanboys that says you could do anything more than what you are. Winning the 6th best conference doesn't make any of us playoff contenders or top 10 teams.
None of us would have our current records with our teams as is in the SEC, Pac, Big 10, Big 12 or ACC. None of us would be sniffing the top 25 at this point.
