SB Nation did a quick check of where all the AP voters ranked UCF...it is sad and a disservice to college football fans everywhere, but especially to those of us who support a "disadvantaged" school not ranked in the Cartel 5. Another voter had the Knights ranked 10th (Behind Auburn no less) !!! That is just inexcusable, and a sign of a lack of intelligence about and respect for college football as a whole and our conference in general.
Guerry, I do not know if you can ask, but I would love to know why your colleague at The Advocate voted the way he did.
This disrespect affects the entire AAC as we could be the next program given the shaft by the powers that be in college football, and I’ve already dealt with that once.
