They are being so annoying. They started being annoying when they announced a championship parade now this. I wish Auburn would’ve won

I say good for them. Anything to get us to 8 teams I all for. They playoffs are where its at! I want 5 power 5 champs, the highest non power 5, and 2 at large teams! It's really pissing off the SEC Homers on espn and that also makes it great! Suck it Finebaum!!

Yep. This is more legit than several of Bama's claims.***

They beat an Auburn team who didn’t want to be there. They want to be considered among the big boys create a schedule that includes some of the big boys - and no that doesn’t mean Maryland and GT (who they didn’t even play).

UCF is the catalyst for expansion.

Wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it occurs before next season.
Kudos to UCF.

I'd be surprised. They have contracts in place for the next few years at least.

In his $200K Mercedes?
He ain’t got nothing else going on. He really should.

To win the national title this year Clemson would've have to have beaten:
Auburn Louisville VT FSU SCAR Miami Bama UGA Not to mention BC, WAKE, and GT
Wonder how UCF would've fared with that schedule?

Exactly. Going unbeaten is good and all, but would anyone on here have been fine with UCF getting in ahead of Clemson this year due to them having a better record? Should we drop A&M and any other upcoming OOC games against Power 5 teams to not run the risk of losing a game, since having the best record is all that matters?
I also don't feel them beating Auburn proves much of anything either. I get that it's cute to say Auburn beat both teams in the NC game, but both of those games were played at Auburn while Auburn was in the thick of the NC hunt. UCF got to play them on a neutral field after Auburn had gotten destroyed by Georgia, and Auburn had nothing left to play for. My last sentence further proves my point, people keep overlooking the fact that Georgia dominated Auburn in their rematch on a neutral field.
UCF played 1 game during the regular season against a team ranked in the top 25, and the game was played on their home field, and it took them double overtime to win it. Their season also included a 7 point win over 7-6 SMU, 10 point win over 7-6 Navy, and a 7 point win over the only other decent team they played in South Florida, which was also played on UCF's home field. They didn't play a team on the road that finished the season with less than 6 losses.

National Championship's? I know John Heisman led Clemson to one undefeated season during his tenure here. And seems Frank Howard had an undefeated year as well.
