NCAA's 2018 Record Book Officially Recognizes UCF's National Championship

Don't forget, they also won the Super Bowl, World Cup, Indy 500, Daytona 500, World Cup, The Masters, the Tour de France, and are looking darn good in their pennant race! If it ain't nailed down, go ahead and claim it boys!

There’s a typo in there.

Um no

How is this any different than what USC did in 2003?

That just opens the door for more of this shite in the future...

HAH!!! Auburn screwed Bama TWICE last season!!! Once by winning and once by losing. I bet the Auburn fans would agree that’s one loss they can live with!

This makes me INSANE. Any player or coach who associated with that team that seriously claims a natty should have their man card revoked. The days of poll championships are over. They were supposed to be over during the BCS era, but they are 100 percent finished in the age of the playoffs. It’s no different than an NFC team that missed the playoffs but had a better regular season record than the eventual AFC Super Bowl Champion claiming a World Championship. I guess it’s just all part of the participation award era we live in. It’s just disheartening seeing grown, competitive men buying into it. It just cheapens was an amazing season for the Knights.

There's no question they had a very good team but their opponents weren't exactly the SEC West.

God damn Auburn for not beating them.

Did anyone bother looking at the teams UCF played during the regular season? Also, winning the National Title as it is set up requires beating 2 of the top 4 teams to ascend to the Title. Maybe I missed where this happened? Otherwise their Title is a completely worthless claim.This also doesn't make good precedence for future similar situations for other legitimate National Title winning teams. Not good.

I just made my own poll, and I’m the only voter. I vote for the UC Santa Cruz Banana Slugs as 2017 National Champions. I’m even making bumper stickers if anyone wants one.

Well lots of schools do this and they are all recognized. Part of what makes CFB so "entertaining".

I understand what UCF is doing, but the playoff is what determines the national champ, and nothing else.

If you don’t play the game, you can’t make the claim. This is a joke.

They're basically just acknowledging that UCF finished #1 in the Colley Matrix. Nothing more. LOL...I never knew that Oklahoma finished #1 in one of the 2003 computer polls despite having 2 losses...WTF?

This is the page listing poll champions. If we are going to use this metric, Alabama has 21 national titles. I'm good with it if this is the metric we want to start using for everybody.

The reason being is the NCAA has no control or say so in college football playoffs or anything of that nature .. little jab at CFP , I think .

Can I see their championship trophy? Who did they play for it? What was the final score?

1. This has really gone too far. 2. Is UCF the new Bama claiming ships?
