UCF National Championship Parade

[GreyWolf1129]

Somebody might wanna call the Heisman Committee. They gave the award to the wrong player. When you compare Mayfield to Milton, including rushing yards, the numbers are really close. And Mayfield had one more game than Milton.

And of course, Milton was 13-0. Mayfield was a pedestrian 12-2.

Looks like another parade at DisneyWorld. Just like the last one, right down the middle of Main Street in FantasyLand...

Your attempt at humor is noted.

this is like electing the down syndrome girl as homecoming queen

You bought one of their t-shirts, didn't you?

Go Vols.

Your blatant disregard for Post #171 of this thread is also noted.

EDIT: To be fair I didn’t buy the t-shirt, it was given to me and I regifted it to the Bama fan referenced in Post #171.

 

[GreyWolf1129]

I blatantly disregard a lot of things. And you seem to be spending a lot of effort explaining how you came to be in possession of that shirt, and how you got rid of it. And UCF is your #3 team, so...

Just be who you are, LW. Mullen will get the Gators back in the hunt, but until then, you go shake pompoms for any team you like. That's what real fans do, right?

In the interest of full disclosure, I do a lot of business on UCF’s campus, so they are my adopted second team.

Send me your address and I’ll mail you a t-shirt. Women’s medium right?

Unfortunately, I've put on a lot of weight since Dr. Phil went syndicated. 14 hours a day on the couch takes a toll on the old metabolism, right? I'll need a size with enough "X's" to make two porn movies.

Just drape it over your mailbox, and I'll swing by and pick it up when I'm selling magazine subscriptions for my new internet friend from Nigeria.

Ugh..
bless their hearts..

 

[jasonvol18]

That's fine. Any time UCF fans want to see their national championship trophy, they can come to Tuscaloosa to check it out.

Hell if Ala can claim one before the final bowl game, then lose the bowl game then UCF can. Most would agree UCF's was more legit than that one Ala claims.

 

[jasonvol18]

Ugh..
bless their hearts..

It's not like they went winless then undefeated back to back seasons. Think most people outside of UCF know Auburn had no desire to be in that game. If they had played AU in a meaningful game the results are much different.

Sort of like half of UT's titles?

 

[jasonvol18]

I only claim 2 lil man but either way I can guarantee the 6 we claim are far more legit than all the ones Alabama claims. But you know I'm right, you don't claim Championships before the final game at any school. Not even the most clean, never been on probation and gods gift to the rest of the college football world.. Alabama Crimson Tide!

 

[bamawriter]

I only claim 2 lil man

Irrelevant, since you were critiquing the titles that Bama, as a school claims.

but either way I can guarantee the 6 we claim are far more legit than all the ones Alabama claims.

All of UT's six are "far more legit" than all of Bama's 17. I'd love to see that logic.

But you know I'm right, you don't claim Championships before the final game at any school.

You do when the last game is considered a meaningless exhibition. Hence, UT does it three times.

Not even the most clean, never been on probation and gods gift to the rest of the college football world.. Alabama Crimson Tide!

You seem upset.

I didn't say all 17 dude. I said atleast our 6 are legit and all of Alabama's are not recognized except by Alabama. Ala had another one they claimed when they lost the bowl game. There's 3-4 that aren't recognized except for at Ala. Last I checked in college football the last game Decides it all. If not then then take away the playoff games this year and Clemson is the NC..That year Ala had the rematch with LSU..If the final game shouldn't always be a determination then again take it from Ala and give it to LSU. You can't have it both ways dogg so pick one and stick with it.

[bamawriter]

Then you need to work on your sentence structure.

I said atleast our 6 are legit

Then why do you, personally, claim 2?

and all of Alabama's are not recognized except by Alabama.

Is this another situation where you say "all" but don't mean "all"?

Ala had another one they claimed when they lost the bowl game.

Yes, '64 and '73. Just like UT claims '40, '51, and '67. It was common back then. Bowls were considered exhibitions. Notre Dame didn't even accept bowl invites. The Big 10 didn't allow teams to play in the Rose Bowl two years in a row even if they won the conference. The bowls didn't matter until the AP moved their final poll back.

There's 3-4 that aren't recognized except for at Ala.

The NCAA's official records leave off '34 and '41. That's it. CFDW only leaves off '41.

Last I checked in college football the last game Decides it all.

That has only been true since '92. When was the last time you checked?

If not then then take away the playoff games this year and Clemson is the NC..That year Ala had the rematch with LSU..If the final game shouldn't always be a determination then again take it from Ala and give it to LSU. You can't have it both ways dogg so pick one and stick with it.

So we're just going to pretend that the BCS and/or playoff have always existed?

And you need to work on your counting skills. I only claim what the NCAA claims. TN only won 4 of the last games that is claimed so 6 is using Alabama math. Alabama didn't even start claiming a lot of those till the 80's. Just like AU said they can claim 9 by Ala terms. Notre Dame has 11 and it's written if they claimed them like Ala they would have 10 more. You just got your feelings hurt when I said If Ala can do it so can C.Fla. Ala is the last team to say anything about teams claiming Championships. Truth be told I've been alive for 1 of TN's and is the only one I even care about. And again I didn't say only the BCS and College Playoffs are the only legit ones. I am trying to dumb this down as much as I can but I'm still not getting through. If you're #1 and win your bowl( before The BCS era started) then you should be NC. But if you lose it then no you should not be the NC. If that's still going over your head I don't know any other way to simplify it. Y'all can claim 100, I really could care less. You missed the point all together. Don't be a hypocrite and belittle another school who is doing exactly what Ala has done. Hell Atleast they can claim going undefeated, winning their bowl game vs the team that boat raced Alabama. Who cares if they claim it? I promise nobody is coming and taking this year's trophy from y'all so let them claim what they want. Last I'm saying about it besides don't be a hypocrite.

Uh, which 4?

Alabama didn't even start claiming a lot of those till the 80's.

Just like UT added four sometime after the '98 season.

Just like AU said they can claim 9 by Ala terms.

I've seen that, and what's funny is by that standard Bama could claim 22.

Notre Dame has 11 and it's written if they claimed them like Ala they would have 10 more.

Again, Bama has a few more that could be claimed, but aren't.

You just got your feelings hurt when I said If Ala can do it so can C.Fla.

I am as calm as a cow in India.

Truth be told I've been alive for 1 of TN's and is the only one I even care about.

Any UT fan under retirement age would say the same thing.

And again I didn't say only the BCS and College Playoffs are the only legit ones. I am trying to dumb this down as much as I can but I'm still not getting through.

You are communicating just fine. You just aren't communicating what you'd like to think you are.

If you're #1 and win your bowl( before The BCS era started) then you should be NC. But if you lose it then no you should not be the NC.

What about all the teams that won titles and didn't accept bowl invites?

If that's still going over your head I don't know any other way to simplify it. Y'all can claim 100, I really could care less.

Obviously, you could care a lot less.

You missed the point all together.

So, do you think UCF are legit national champs?

 

[TRENT4VOLS]

Here's my problem with the delusional self-rewarding " National Title "that UCF is giving themselves. Their fans keep mentioning how so many programs have rewarded themselves national titles throughout history. Well that's not true. Before the BCS system, there were a few really respected organizations that studied the teams and awarded the national champs. THAT WAS THE SYSTEM. Ever since the BCS was instated and now the CFB Playoff Nat'l Championship -- it's now the system.

Besides, UCF is claiming a national title. They're not being rewarded one by some serious football organization like Litkenhous when they rewarded UT the 1967 National Title. UCF has been crowned the national champs by some idiot on ESPN named Dan LeBetard and a local newspaper. No legitimate football organization has crowned them national champs. Yes there are sketchy national titles in program's history (such as 1941 Alabama's national title rewarded to them by Houlgate despite their #21 AP ranking), but overall teams earned and were rewarded the national title by legit associations. UCF is acting like a newspaper and an ESPN host is a serious association. The only real association that crowns nat'l champs now is the CFB Playoff Nat'l Title

So apparently now the Florida legislature is going to vote to see if they will issue UCF National Championship license plates this year.

You were making a good point until you called Litkenhous a "serious football organization." UCF is claiming a title awarded by the Colley Matrix, one of the former BCS computers. While I don't agree with them, I don't see how claiming a math system title in 2017 is all that different than claiming a math system title in 1967. Math systems have always been stupid, and no one cared any more about them then than they do now.

And, yes, the same goes for Bama's 1941 claim.

 

[JuicyBrucey]

They beat everyone they played including Auburn. Even the real national champ couldn't beat Auburn.

 

[LibertyVol]

I don't have a problem with UCF claiming a title. You can make a strong argument that they should have been included in the playoff rather than bama. bama played a weak schedule and did not win their league.

They need to make it a rule that you cannot go to the playoffs without winning your league. bama got a back door title. They did not deserve to be in the playoff. Just because they won it does not change that. It is what you do over the entire season and bama did not get it done against Auburn. Auburn was clearly a better team.
