Jesus... How pathetic do you have to be? This is part of the culture now, everyone gets a trophy, everyone gets a ring. Fsu passed out "state championship" rings a few yrs ago and i about passed out when i saw it. Is there anything more pathetic than this???? Ever? I would rather see tebow beating us down 60 to nothing and praying after every score than see one more second of the UCF(we beat nobody) knights parading around as if they did something.

Could’ve sworn they went undefeated and put the beat down on a team that put a beat down on Saban. SEC inflation gave Bama the title, and that’s pathetic.

Auburn lost 4 games. It seems they can't beat a decent team outside of Jordan-Hare.
 
UCF’s National Title is just as legitimate as Bama’s and should be recognized and celebrated just the same.

Until the “playoffs” are properly modified to include a fair sampling of worthy teams, the system should continue to be mocked.

Ucf cant be a worthy team. My friends pop warner team went undefeated, do they deserve it?

Does that mean UF's titles should be mocked? Of course not. Come on Sad, you're being ridiculous.

This is yet another good argument for splitting D1 Football into 2 Divisions.
>>> D1a and D1b <<<
Then UCF, as the undefeated 61st team (#1 in D1b) could have a legit NC.

By the standards and rules that everyone has effectively agreed to, Alabama won the national championship. The transitive game of "UCF-beat-Auburn-who-beat-Bama-so-UCF-effectively-beat-Bama" can be milked to show that basically any team with a winning record effectively beat everyone in the entire FBS.

But I realize that UCF is playing the long game.

If they sit on that "national championship" for long enough, it will eventually be grandfathered in. It will take a couple of generations. But fifty years from now, it will be like one of those questionable Bama "championships" from the 1930s-1940s that no one really disputes because no one cares anymore.
 
Only suggestion, those fans of other teams who doubt UCF's strength of schedule .Contact your local Athletic Director and have him schedule UCF. ^Home and Home at that^ That or have your conference commissioner add them to your favorite conference and end all the P5 G5 garbage that goes on.

And No I don't agree with their self crowning champs but who the hell does it hurt?

Just them I'm guessing TG. It seems that their Natl. perception will be / is, taking a hit over it.

Otherwise, I don't care either way for myself. :cool:

It hurts my soul..... Its delusion and i hate delusion

I would like to schedule them tbh
 
If it doesn't matter, then why do we care?

Good for UCF and their brand, if they just went with the punches , imagine all the lost revenue in merchandise sales. The free added publicity they are receiving still.

Their A.D is ballsy, kids will know this UCF team for as much about this as their undefeated season. Great story, they aren't National Champions, but we won' forget them anytime soon.

You mean folks can't have unrealistic expectations if they derive some sort of satisfaction out of a game?

No, its reality not fantasy. Its like telling a highschooler who cant add that he/she can be president. I hate when i hear parents tell their kid that, its the biggest lie on the planet. The kid is stupid, no money, and yet somehow is going to be president? Plz. Tell him he has his choice between trash man and shelf stocker at walmart and move on. People need to be more realistic. I heard a parent say "reach for the moon becuz if you miss you will hit the stars" to this moron kid i know(i work with the parent. First off, this statement was blasphemy, the kid would never even find his way to the launch pad. Hes that dumb. However, the parent is saying reach for the stars. This kid is asking me questions about engineering and has not taken 1 honors math class and is a senior. He can not solve basic problems.... Reach for the stars..pssshh...more like reach for the trash can you mongoloid

Says the guy scraping 100k a year, like you're some kind of success story. Wow, you're in the 25% tax bracket.

I bet you do your taxes at Walmart.

Not a people person I take it. I mean, who dafuq would get pissed with some kid because they hadn't "taken 1 honors math class and is a senior"? And for what? To be a hundredthousandnaire?

You know how hard it is to be an engineer and only make 100k? You have to actually try to suck at your job.

I'm guessing he's a Lego engineer that works remotely from his parents' basement.

Probably a city engineer designing red light intersections in Valdosta.
 
I don’t really mind that they are doing it. I think it hurts them more in the long run because people are just going to roll their eyes at UCF’s season now instead of respecting it. I feel if they would have drove home the undefeated season and capping it off with a victory over a SEC power in the Peach Bowl, that would have had a lasting impact. It was an amazing season for them, I think this just cheapens it a little.

For once, this one criminole agrees with me... ;) --- :D

It depends on how one lives and considers what scraping by means?

I've been in the 100k-110k for the past decade. Electrical/Plumbing contractor.

Lived a modest lifestyle and survived easily and very comfortable off of 50,000 a year. The first two years I lived this way, I purchased all the house I need for 100k. In the perfect peaceful location with plenty of fishing and hunting near by back door. I bought and paid for while others are living in wasted space in crowded cookie cutter neighborhood with yuppies who have Yorkies for pets.... paying a 30 year mortgage. Meanwhile while some are out buying fancy European cars...where the up keep, maintenance, and repairs cost more than what an everyday automobile costs at payoff. I've simply drive a Nissan Frontier. It does all I need. I bought a 2002 Hyundai Sonata with cash. It's for travel. Gets 34 plus miles to the gallon. The wife drives a simple Ford Escape. The kids have a Ford Ranger and a Toyota Tacoma. All used. All paid for. None of us are scared to get our hands dirty and have easy cars to repair and change the oil in. Meanwhile keep paying for those $200 oil changes.

While living off 50K usually put the other half in some type of investment. Not just the simple stocks and such. Bought profit real estate. Rental properties. Farm land. It's making money and I don't even have to do the work. Any incentives I've made to my regular salary goes straight into 401K and other retirement savings. I'll be done working at age 55...if not sooner. To hell with working till I'm old because I've bought stupid crap. Worthless cars. Oversized houses that kicked people's ass during the housing market crash.

And yes I've done my taxes at Wal Mart a few times but I usually just simply use Turbo Tax. Meanwhile brag about paying$1000 dollars because you are too dumb to do them yourself. I'll put that $1000 for another track of land in the Ozark Mountains. My kids kids kids will have a piece of real estate somewhere around the country.

I'm not too interested in rubbing elbows with some hard blows at boring dinners like Buca attends. I usually just settle for a home cooked meal watching the sunset over the water vs over looking the rat race in Tampa. ;)

You know nothing you described as being expensive is actually expensive, right?

Depends on how one wants to look at it.

Sure brag about throwing money and basically setting it on fire. My $8,000 truck does what I need it to do. No need in me to pay over $15,000 for a automobile that loses value as it rides off the lot.

Cool pay for your $200 oil change. I'll spend around $20. That $180 I saved already covers electricity plus some. Yes that's right I don't have $300 electricity bills heating and cooling rooms I don't use. I have an energy efficient home that averages pretty descent.

Cool pay over $200,000 for your home that will probably get wiped away in the next Hurricane that hits the bay area. All while going by the rules of the neighborhood association. I'll put my $100,000 savings into another tract of rice that will produce money year after year after year.

"Scraping" lol Not to get in a pissing contest but i have over 1.5 million in equity and money, probably more. Thats not "scraping" but i understand that i hurt your feelings and you dont have the emotional capacity to get over it
