I'd like to see a strong SEC team that can score play UCF. Any SEC defense would spank them if motivated

Nah. I think it's time to start giving the G5 teams some credit.

Would they compete in the playoff? No, but the best G5 team almost always wins in the major bowl bid they get. I don't buy that that's because the power conference team is just "unmotivated" every time. That's a lame excuse.

The Mountain West is 4-0 and the American is 3-0 against P5 teams in BCS/NY6 bowls. Are we going to pretend that for all 7 of those games the opponent was unmotivated?
