UCF Football: 5 overreactions from Knights’ win over Florida Atlantic

1. UCF needs to be included in the College Football Playoff

Never again will an undefeated team (UCF) beat a team (Auburn) who beat the national champ (Alabama) and not be crowned true champion. UCF should be ranked within the top-five teams in the country at this very moment. Auburn has a loss already this season since losing to UCF in the Peach Bowl. Sure, teams change, coaches change, but the point still remains, UCF hasn’t lost.

In other sports like, boxing or swimming (etc.), if you don’t lose, and you work your way up against tougher opponents, you earn your shot at the title belt. The same should be true in this case regarding UCF. They demonstrated their ability to beat one of the toughest opponents they possibly could have faces, on the biggest stage, and won.

If UCF continues to be undefeated this season, which they have a very good chance to do, and they win the AAC Championship Game, UCF will be in the College Football Playoff.

Should the playoff committee not include an undefeated conference champion, from any FBS conference, the fans need to protest. Never again should we have an undefeated, but disputed champion in college football.
