I'm on board with that. UCF in 2019 was a far tougher draw than expected when we scheduled them, so I can't be too mad about that, either.

Scheduling a ROAD game against a G5 team is always a STUPID idea, especially one that requires a 6h flight. I know it was a home-and-home. It was stupid to agree to a home and home with a G5 team

Scheduling a game in Florida (that we probably expected to win when we scheduled it) so Florida recruits can see us play in person isn't all-caps stupid, I don't think. And of the Florida teams we could have traveled to play, I'd rather see us schedule UCF than FSU, UF, FAU, FIU, or USF. 

Now, it's not at the top of my list of teams in the Southeast I'd rather see us schedule home-and-homes against, sure. I'd prefer Vanderbilt, Georgia Tech, Duke, and even UNC. But Florida is incredibly rich recruiting ground--it produces more top 100 recruits than any state except Texas--so showing up there every once in a while to play a game has some merit.
