UCF should be ecstatic about playing Gators even on their terms | Commentary

Or at least that vocal faction of UCF fans who seem to be upset that new athletic director Terry Mohajir has agreed to a future 2-for-1 football series (two games in Gainesville vs. one in Orlando) against the Florida Gators, seemingly going against the scheduling philosophy of popular former AD Danny White. It’s no secret White, for competitive and financial reasons, refused to schedule inequitable 2-for-1 series against Power 5 programs, even marquee opponents such as the Gators.

Question to the vocal minority: Why would you be upset about finally getting a chance to play the big, bad Gators?
