Worst Loss: UConn 37, Central Florida 29

The only reason Central Florida had to share the AAC crown rather than claim the title outright was a truly bizarre setback at UConn on November 1, a result that makes no sense in any known dimension: In the end, it served as the Knights’ only conference loss2 and as the Huskies’ only conference win. It was also the only game in which UConn scored more than 21 points, and one of only two games in which UCF allowed more than 30. With a win, and a 10-2 record overall, the Knights might have challenged 11-2 Boise State for the major bowl slot reserved for the highest-rated Group of 5 champion. Instead, they’re bound for something called the Bitcoin St. Petersburg Bowl, and have no one to blame but themselves.

So this could also be listed as Best Win?

Is there a bigger bunch of smarmy d-bags than Simmons and his buddies? Other than the Boneyard I suppose.

No, there is not a bigger bunch of smarmy d-bags. The 1998 Bill Simmons would despise the 2014 Bill Simmons.

Someone needs to bring this to his attention.
