UCF Athletic Director Keith Tribble says the Knights are on the verge of signing an agreement to play at Ohio State next year. Does this mean UAB gets the boot? Or Cincinnati? (Orlando Sentinel)
I doubt they boot Cincinnati. For starters, you don't just boot AQ schools off your schedule because they have a pretty hard time of filling their empty slots. Also, Cincy is a team that will score you massive computer points because they are a team you SHOULD beat as well as a team that COULD/PROBABLY win 10 games.

I would die for an away game in Orlando, though it sounds like I might get a bowl.
From the article: UCF has not formally announced the game because it has not received a signed contract from the Buckeyes yet.

either UAB is backing out since play Ole Miss and SoCarolina the 2 weeks prior or UCF meant 2013 as have a hole in that years schedule.
Confirmed: It's UC that is backing out.
Haters, hatin' on my hedging blurb. :)
Any idea why? Until I hear otherwise, I'm just going to assume that the Bearcats are scared. Scaredcats, if you will.
And that UC fans will continue to run their mouths because UC is ranked, since they play in the Big LEast.
The Ohio State University, College of Arts & Sciences, Class of 2006
The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law, Class of 2009
Works for me. Scaredcats.
Uh oh, somebody else is switching conferences...?
