UC has to get at least one marquee program a year and probably another good program every year in their non-conference schedule if they want to seriously be considered the best of the rest. Hopefully the conference ups its game and can offer some more respectable competition but as it sits now Central Florida is the only other program that might get even a little respect on the national level and that's based on one year of success last year. Talking with the SEC is perfect and based on the fact that they are talking about no longer scheduling 1-AA schools, or FCS schools as they're known now, Cincinnati could be a good fit to replace that opponent. Personally I would love to play South Carolina as I have family there. The Big Ten is in that camp too and geographically it makes sense for their schools to schedule us.
