Check out this video from Rodger Sherman of The Ringer, who pretty much nails the UCF Knights’ argument for inclusion in the College Football Playoff:
Nicely done. Wish I had this on hand before Christmas with the folks. And I’m not alone:
So @rodger told me he thought it was BS that UCF didn’t make the college football playoff and I was like yeah yeah that’s cute.

But then he did this video and now I’m 100% team UCF and 100% down w/ the college football playoff.
Most importantly, I will never doubt Rodger again. pic.twitter.com/9dQbegrO2P
We’ve gone over this before in depth, but Rodger breaks it down in societal terms: It’s the oligarchy, stupid.
College Football has an oligarchy. UCF is trying to break into that oligarchy. The oligarchy isn’t having it. So UCF is rebelling. It’s that simple.
It’s also fun knowing how UCF continues to live rent-free in the minds of the college football oligarchy’s defenders in the media:
UCF has declared itself the winner of The First Responder Bowl.

They hate UCF so much, they LOVE UCF.
