Well there you go. Once the B1G does it, the SEC will follow. 9 game schedules arent getting the Big 12 ahead.

Did you just call Miami a commuter school?
Are you insane?

This isn't new news. Saban was commenting on this months ago.

Yes, and they support their sports teams like one too. UCF supports their team much better then Miami fans. Miami support is pathetic..no debate!
Looks like a commuter school to me. At least they have their own football stadium.

I do, i was just referring to them by the way the support their school....like a commuter school.
Central Florida is a growing university that supports their school better then Miami. UCF would be a nice addition to the Big 12.

in a yr when they barely get to .500, they will fit right in

Miami averaged about 10,000 more fans at their games this year than UCF did

west monroe has better attendance then ucf does, also a better stadium

The picture he picked to show the crowd at a UCF game is the game their game against Texas when they had an attendance of 45,622, their 7th largest crowd ever.
Their largest crowd is 48,543 and that was against Miami

Miami BS's on their attendance though, similar to Pitt

Pretty clear in the picture that its the Texas game.
UCF will always be viewed as a commuter school but they have around 20% of their students living on campus, which isn't far off from the average of big, public schools. FIU is a commuter school with around 5% of students on campus, UCF was set up that way back in the 70's when the school first started. The amount of people who have no idea that Miami is a private, relatively smaller school is amazing. Nothing commuter about it, unless you're talking about the Saudi royalty who fly in to take their tests.

Ok, so dont you think that if they were in the Big 12 against better teams...like Texas, that they would average higher attendance? Miami's attendance is pathetic considering they get many more high profile games in an AQ conference.
Anyway, back on topic. Again if not UCF then who?

Cincy. They are doing a $80+ million renovation on Nippert, and have a good basketball program
Posted on 1/2/14 at 9:32 am to Sevendust912
Cincy would be a good choice. It would bridge that gap between the Big 12 and West Virginia. That's still only 11 though. Who else?

I like ECU but I doubt anyone else does. They are the only football first program in NC and beat the hell out of both UNC and NCST this year.
Plus they have a loyal fanbase and a great stadium

So no to UCF and yes to East Carolina. Sounds legit
