    Thumbs Up Thoughts on UCF as national champ?


    @MMFlint

    Congrats to University of Central Florida(13-0) on being America's national champion! The elites will still hold their FBS-SEC bowl I guess.

    .@UCF_Football should be #NationalChampions; they convincingly beat #Auburn, the only team to beat Bama & UGA. There is NO rational reason to think #UCF couldn't beat #Bama or #UGA if the corrupt @CFBPlayoff had given them the chance.And UCF has the only perfect record.

    as much as I want to say I agree, I can’t make myself. The toughest game they played was against Auburn with a month to prepare. Could they play Auburn, then Bama, then UGA in consecutive weeks and win 2/3 or all 3? No way to know. I would bet not.

    I think they have a legit claim. They have my vote (which counts for absolutely nothing).

    Honestly, I cannot seem to get excited for the SEC game of the week masquerading as the national championship, especailly since the SEC did rather poorly in most of the bowl games they participated in.

    I probably won't watch, but the only consolation would be if Alabama won (because that really annoys LSU fans the most since they lost Saban).

    What other team could play any 2 of those and UCF in consecutive weeks and win all 3?
    Have you considered those Dogs?

    I agree, but because the haves are set up to get the nod, you have to schedule way over your head. As a G5, you have to be lucky enough to run the table and beat at least 1 ranked P5 just to get consideration, IMO. After a few G5’s have been blown out in the big bowl games, I think it would take an undefeated season by them next year and then they might get in.

    Wah.

    If Bama's conference is too hard for them, I hear the WAC is taking applications.

    I’m not saying feel sorry for Bama. Feel bad for Boise(years ago) and UCF because they proved everything they could on the field and they still got snubbed. Only way to fix it is 8 team playoff. Even then, they will figure out a way to only have 1 G5 in the mix.

    Re: Thoughts on UCF as national champ?

    By this logic we could say all kinds of things.

    UCF also struggled vs SMU.

    We beat SMU easily.

    Does this mean we could beat UCF?

    No, I firmly believe in matchups being very important. I’m just trying to give my opinion that a G5 will never get a shot in the current system.

    A 8 team playoff doesn't guarantee one Group of 5 team in, much less two or more. There are no automatic bids in football, except at the lower levels. UCF was only 12th this year.

    Re: Thoughts on UCF as national champ?

    The way to fix it is to pair up every P5 conference with a G5 conference. The champion each of those games is eligible for the playoffs. This would, not only, be fair but would even things out on revenue and recruiting eventually. If players knew that they could go to a G5 school and play for a chance, it would blow up the whole P5 system and eventually create a level FBS system. It is really simple, but the P5s would never go for that, of course.

    AAC and SEC paired up
    CUSA and B12 are paired up
    Belt and ACC paired up
    etc...

    The winners of those games go to one of the Big New Years Day Bowls. The winners of those bowls play and so forth. That is a true National Champion and fair for everyone. Of course, soon there wouldn't be a such thing a G5 and P5 with this scenario. You would see some of the P5 teams scrambling to get into some of the G5 conferences instead of the other way around.

    As it stands, UCF is the National Champion in my book.
