Big News about the Civil ConFLict...Huge

[CTMike]

It might just be me, but does anyone else think HCBD is spending more time on this nonsensical rivalry & trophy than figuring out a way to get play calls to our QB faster?

I mean... You don't honestly believe that?

The link in the post is to the NY Post Story back in August. It's real, similar paragraph in Orlando Sentinel.

Oof.

CONN/FLict as the youngins type. The slash as a nice homage to HFD and CR.

As long as he doesn't wear a red tie.

So no more being civil on the BY.

No more civil suits.

No more being a civilian. Just an ian now.

I legit can't wait to hear the duo calling this game talk about the history of the rivalry. Will be hilarious.

Honest question - what do people think UCF will do with this trophy if they win the game?

Hoist it?

Ignore the whole thing?

Smash the thing on the 50 yard line?

Laugh about it, put the new score on and move on to the next game....or pee on it. It really could go either way.

Wondering the same thing. Is there a bigger insult than saying you're not worthy of being our rival?

Hey Neil, you're the reporter. Do your job.

Great, another place on the internet where we can hear people bemoaning how being PC is ruining 'Murica.... or you know, maybe they changed the name because the first one sounded stupid.

Hey man, you're talking about changing a months-long tradition! MONTHS!

"UConn-UCF will meet Saturday for a bizarre trophy created by UConn's coach after its only conference win of the 2014 season. With no shared history or geographic proximity or any real reason for a rivalry beyond sharing a division in a new conference, this is just the type of absurd, memorable thing that can catch on, even if it's in an ironic way! The ConFLiCT is so dumb it may actually be genius! I'm ready to embrace it. Bring it on"

Bring it on indeed! Whack those Knights!

The conFLiCT? Just capitalize the C and as long as you are fixing up that craptastic trophy at least put the correct symbol for UCF football.

Grammar and punctuation are the least of our problems here...

UCF uses both symbols... kinda like UCONN and the Mascot

I thought O'Leary said that they didn't use the Knight for football. I agree though it doesn't matter.

UConn is getting a lot of noterioty from this, some good some not. It was discussed on college Football Live today. As someone once said "I don't care what they say about me,just as long as they spell my name right". That about sums it up. Diaco is a genius.
