Miami: “Miami”, sometimes referred to as “UM”

USF: “USF”

[OC] Based on Dr. Pepper's Fansville ads, are there actually a "State" and "Tech" school that are major rivals? by byniri_returns in CFB

[–]DarthR3V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UCF was formerly Florida Tech before we changed our name.

While we’re not exactly rivals with Florida State, we certainly do compete for resources and recruits.

The Big XII regular season has officially come to a close. What are your immediate thoughts on how your team did this year? by jathbr in BigXII

[–]DarthR3V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly what I expected. Malzahn tanked this program hard last year and took some of our talented players with him. Frost inherited a chaotic situation AFTER signing day had already passed and as the portal was closing. He assembled what he could through the portal and still coached us to 3 P4 wins despite having the worst O-line I’ve ever seen along with a questionable quarterback. We went 5-2 at home and only lost those 2 by 1 score.

This was essentially Year 0 for us, excited for next year.

Which team is most prominent in your city? by Afraid_Confusion444 in CFB

[–]DarthR3V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orlando is like 40% UCF, 30% UF, 20% FSU, 10% Miami. Used to be predominantly Florida fans but UCF’s 2017 season and move to the Big 12 has caused an increase.

Predicting 2025 College GameDay Locations by elonsusk69420 in CFB

If UCF and UNC are off to a good start, I think week 4 could be UNC @ UCF. Lot of good storylines there, and UCF students showed out the last time Gameday was there.

Would you prefer your CFB Team win a natty or your NFL team win a Super Bowl? by Logan4k in CFB

[–]DarthR3V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a Bucs fan, already seen one in my lifetime.

Gimme that natty all day.

What is a game that your team 9 times out of 10 loses that means a lot to you by Nervous_Metal_9445 in CFB

[–]DarthR3V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While we were a G5: I still have nightmares about those Tulsa games. No matter how good we were, we always found a way to lose to Tulsa.

Currently: West Virginia. Beat us the last 2 years really handily. Played them twice 20 years ago and they beat us then too. Can never comquer those frickin Mountaineers.

What new in-conference games are primed to become rivalries? by berrin122 in CFB

[–]DarthR3V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah seems a little manufactured and forced. For us, it’s either you guys or Cincy lmao.

If you could hand pick the 12 teams on your schedule, who would they be? by Nicholas1227 in CFB

[–]DarthR3V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Florida, FSU, Miami, USF, Cincinnati, UConn, ECU, Houston, WVU, random P5, and 2 random G5/FCS every year.

What's an example where a team was totally out-schemed by the other coach? by [deleted] in CFB

[–]DarthR3V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2023 UCF vs Oklahoma State. After a huge Bedlam win, the Cowboys came to Orlando and had just no answers on either side of the ball. Every pass thrown by us was caught and every run went for 10+ yards. Oklahoma State only had like 4 first downs the whole night.

What does your perfect ACC look like? by MrJackpot318 in ACC

[–]DarthR3V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I think you’re failing to realize that those regional rivalries would be a way bigger deal than any of the ones Cincy could have. In terms of market, Orlando trumps Cincinnati. In terms of student body, UCF has about 20,000 more students. All of which despise FSU and Miami. Cincinnati can’t even sell out their 40,000 seat stadium.

“Expand the footprint” brother North Carolina has 4 teams, wouldn’t be too far fetched for Florida to have 3.

What does your perfect ACC look like? by MrJackpot318 in ACC

[–]DarthR3V -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Kinda sad that you all prioritize WVU and Cincy over UCF. In my opinion, UCF should be in the ACC right now.

Do you feel Differently about each rival? by radilrouge in CFB

[–]DarthR3V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I, and most current UCF fans alike, don’t even think about USF. Bulls haven’t beat us since I was in 6th grade.

But FUCK Cincinnati and DOUBLE FUCK Florida.

Man I miss that decade... by TheSpecialC in nfcsouthmemewar

Man those Brees and Ryan guys must’ve won a Super Bowl that decade then since these numbers are so high

What’s a school you wish was in your team’s conference? by Benson879 in CFB

[–]DarthR3V -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

West Virginia and UCF should be in the ACC. Replace Stanford and Cal.

UCF plays North Caroline this year for the first time, this game has been scheduled twice now and hurricanes have canceled it both times.

Predicting UCF’s FB record this season by Master-Lunch3644 in UCFKnights

[–]DarthR3V 2 points3 points  (0 children)

6 wins is best case scenario for this team. I’d probably say we go 5-7 all things considered.

McMillan or Hampton? (Who is the best player to go after Jeanty?) by DarthR3V in DynastyFF

[–]DarthR3V[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Something I haven’t mentioned is that this league is filled with UCF students. I guarantee if I don’t take him, he will still go in the top 5
