Seems like a very poor scheduling choice to me. UCF isn't bad enough that we destroy them every year, and are rarely good enough to give us very much credit if we beat them.

They won the Fiesta Bowl last year and finished the season ranked #10 in the AP.  They almost beat Penn State last week, Sagarin has them at 45.  Maybe you guys don't think much of them, but the folks on the selection committee should view them as the tough opponent they are (certainly compared to an FCS or low level MWC team).  Our SOS just took a big jump, and in theory that matters now. 

Plus, Florida recruiting.  Isn't playing more games in the South for exposure what people want?
