Some of you sound surprised to learn it's all about money. Well where do you think that money comes from? If the networks can bank on you watching, then might as well just quietly bend over and take it like a man.
Until the money starts to shrink, the networks and the CFP ain't gonna fix what ain't broken.
I'm not going to boycott games. I'm a college football fan, I'll watch any game if its on. With that said I always watch at least three conference games.
3 group of 5 games? Wow, bless your heart.
I can only endure group of 5 football long enough to watch the usf game every week. Beyond that I would only watch a power 5 game.
Look at you over here, subtley trolling your butt off. Too bad, just like USF in any sport, no one cares. You should try the conference realignment board, you and quo will make a dynamic duo.
That is written exactly in the Quo style so I'm not convinced it's not him using yet another alias.

(11-01-2018 08:38 AM)bearcatmark Wrote: It's not impossible but it would take a perfect storm. If UCF had played and beaten a playoff contender last year it would have be almost impossible to ignore. (I know Auburn but that was after the season). Next year UC plays at OSU and has UCLA at home. They also get Houston, Memphis, UCF, Temple and USF. If UC somehow ran through that schedule unbeaten, my guess is they would be in the playoff. But that's an incredibly tall order that takes beating a top 5 type team and then going through a really difficult AAC schedule.
Likewise if Houston had run the table the year they beat Oklahoma and Louisville I think they'd have made the playoffs.
It's an insane standard because teams like UC, UCF and Houston have no means to get that type of team on their schedule year after year.... So it's luck whether their playoff caliber team has them on the schedule and then they have to win that kind of game, likely on that team's home field. It's not impossible, but it's purposefully designed by the cartel to prevent it from happening.
I agree with the bold. Except they would've created a test akin to the "eye test" to keep them out. Just to say F you to the G5.

Also, I think UCF would've been higher if they weren't trying to cram the National Title stuff down everyone's throats. That 100% is playing a role and an unfair one, at that.

Look... I have not been a fan of the UCF "National Championship" thing, but I don't think they'd be any higher or any lower than where they are if they had done something different on the PR front.
I guessed that they'd be at #12, that's where they are. I'm not saying it's right or fair, just that it has nothing to do with the "National Championship" campaign.

10 years from now it won't matter. The publicity is worth every penny and more. People either love UCF or hate UCF but the most important part is that they know UCF.

^^^THIS
Nobody really believes UCF was the #1 team in the nation last year. That's not the point. It makes people TALK about it when they see it. Talk is good. NO Talk = disappearing. I think it was a genius move and wish that Danny White was the highest paid consultant to Aresco that money can buy.
