Going to claim the National Title and hang a national champion banner in their stadium.

Very good team. Got sort of a raw deal, but definitely not national champions.

That seems pretty silly. Hang a banner for your undefeated season and just be happy with that.

Yeah....I dunno. I think Illinois used to claim a piece of the 1952 (or something) title because some group (neither the AP nor the UPI) declared them national champs. Kind of silly.

Scott Frost is a feisty one. He lobbied in '97 when the Huskers and Wolverines split. Huskers were # 2 in both polls, but picked up the coaches vote, I think, after Michigan beat Wazzou in a relatively close Rose Bowl.

Hanging a homemade National Championship banner in their stadium is embarrassing and does nothing but make them look like a bush league program.

I'm ok with that though. There are some allowed, per NCAA, sources to claim a national title. I assume the 1952 title is one of those.

You can't just make it up and grant it to yourself because you went undefeated. It sucks they didn't get a shot at a title but have a parade for an undefeated season.

Good for them.

Defeated the team that beat both teams playing for the national championship.

Kind of cringey . . . awarding yourself a title....just get a banner going and be cool with it.

I don't think 'kind of' is necessary .... that's full-on cringey.

Like Clubber Lang, I think they deserved their shot, but . . . they didn't get it. Still a great season.

After watching the first half of this game, I no longer have an issue with UCF doing that.

yeah, sorry, that UCF team isn't hanging with either of these teams in this venue. auburn is a good beat in a mean nothing bowl game but thats not the cfp.

i don't think they'd get blown out by 50, i just think they'd be double digit dogs for a reason.

Auburn also beat Alabama. So for those scoring at home:

If Auburn > Alabama and If UCF > Auburbn, then UCF > Alabama

wouldn't be surprised if Trump looked at Rollins College next door in Winter Park, Florida. Dated a girl in undergrad whose sister attended Rollins...east coast types with cash who couldn't get into Fordham even. They had the best parties. I think Mister Rogers is a Rollins alum.

I'd like to see if they count odd sports boarding "schools" when considering where the children cam from.
