You can run from the truth. You can hide from the truth. You can suppress the truth. You can deny the truth. You can't make the truth into falsehood. You have to deal with the world as it is, and not as you want it to be. What I said is true. It may be unfair. It remains true.

The "Florida is ducking UCF with a PR stunt" narrative is a very self-serving narrative for UCF. It's not an obvious conclusion because of the difference in status between Florida and UCF. The people who matter (defined as "the P5") will not accept that narrative as true. No one is going to shame Florida into changing its mind. So UCF can sulk in its wounded pride and get nothing, or it can accept the terms and get to play the games.

Which is better? 1. Playing the games on Florida's terms? 2. Standing on principle and getting no games whatsoever? It's not like Florida has to play UCF. Florida won't have trouble finding opponents. And if Florida wins, it won't have trouble getting into the CFP race. UCF is looking to improve its SOS. UCF has to make the concessions.
