Beating the unbranded cupcakes seems to have helped ucf get noticed, and promoted.

 

I’m looking forward to USF winning again whether it be against a bunch of cupcakes or anything lol

NY6 games, winning those, the championship stunt and building a brand that inserted itself into the national discussion helped get them noticed and promoted. People neither have an idea nor do they care about what they did in the aac week in and week out. 
 

If I told most people that we won the aac every year since its inception they wouldn’t be able to/bother to fact check me. 
 

Each aac game that you play a little part of your program dies inside, win or lose it is still a march towards obscurity and irrelevance.

Which aac game do you have circled on your calendar? 

I admit that they got ripped off by the way the playoff system was set up. Cincy got in but it took a lot of help. They earned their big 12 invite imo

You also think we are in a good spot and VPMK is a valuable asset, so your judge of worth maybe a bit suspect

I won’t be surprised to see tons of schools go independent which I believe will make college football better. Let the P2 have their fun fighting each other while all the other schools build up their name recognition by going independent & winning tons like the old days

I would rather have an AD with ACC connections than one with no connections at all

Who exactly in any position of power in aac do you think remembers him in any way that would be positively impactful or views him as a difference making asset?

How did they get to the NY6 games? How did they build a brand? By beating AAC cupcakes.

You wouldn't have to tell anybody that we won the AAC because the National media and NY6 games would do it for us.

I have every game circled on my calendar with plans for attending WKU and maybe one of the Texas games.

Are you saying that UCF was ripped off in 2017?

I have a difficult time believing that. I believe their strength of schedule was in the 70's. We may have been their biggest win and our strength of schedule was in the 90's. 

If you're looking for a team who should have been in the playoff that year it should have been Ohio State.

you don't get the NY6 games without beating their weak AAC opponents.

How many NY6 games has WVU played in since moving to B12? What about Miami since moving to ACC?

Fact is we will give up an easier path to the playoffs for more money. Just like every other team that has moved up including UCF.

Yes our regular season games will be against tougher opponents but we are more likely to finish with a mediocre(or worse) record.

there are pros and cons to moving up.

pros - more money, better regular season games

cons- less wins, harder path to the playoffs
