They are novices. Bama has like 5 or 6 fake championships.

SBnation has UCF's SOS at 103. What's the definitive metric on that?

No one should have a problem with this. Doesn't affect anything

Correct, one is undefeated.

It's not about doing everything you can. Playing 11 G5 teams and a 4-8 P5 team isn't a strong enough resume to get into the playoffs, sorry.
You act like they can control every aspect of their schedule. Georgia Tech didn't reschedule them. Power teams will avoid "upset" games.
Schedules are made years in advance...its a gamble whether that team will be a power when you face them.
These teams deserve a shot but ESPN and the P5 conferences have stacked the deck in every way possible to make it impossible for a mid-major to win a title no matter how good they are.
By this logic Butler should have never been in the Final Four because they didn't play in a power 5 conference. Thankfully every other sports gives every school a shot at winning a title.

Seriously, are we really using a meaningless exhibition game that Auburn was clearly disappointed to be in as any sort of indication that UCF is the best in the country?

They literally beat the one team bama couldn’t beat.

Beating an unmotivated 3 loss Auburn team doesn't earn them anything.
Maybe so. But objectively they DID defeat the only team (Auburn) to beat the team favored to win the National Title (Alabama). Does that not count for anything?

True.................................................................................

Also, I happened to have watch UCF during the year. They are good, very good, with legit NFL talent on both sides of the ball. People simply tried to dismiss them as a lowly untalented mid-major. That isnt the case with this actual team

No, because meaningless bowl games lack motivation. You think Utah was really better team than Bama in '08?

Congrats to us, feels good to be the champs

Whatever you say. Their schedule is what it is, and they simply aren't going to be considered as the best.

Sure. Dropping form playoff team to meaningless exhibition surely had no effects on the players.
