Do you watch Sportscenter?
I have never had so many awesome responses to such a simple question..
Background of the question:
For the last week or so, ESPN has been playing a segment about week-by-week speculated ranking for college football. The set that they are using for the segment is surrounded by helmets of the teams that are traditionally top 20-25 teams. UF, Texas, Notre Dame, USC, etc. etc. However, front and center when the cameras focus in on the analysts is a UCF helmet. Granted I am a UCF fan, but seriously “One of the teams, is not like the other…”
With the exception of the fact that the helmet is the Old UCF Logo, I have a feeling one of the following is the reason for this.
- There is a UCF Alumni on the set design team for ESPN. wo0p! Drop us a comment!!
- They Mixed UCF up with USF.
- They know something about our season that … no one … absolutely no one … anywhere else on the planet knows…
- They ran out of Helmets, and a old logo UCF helmet was the cheapest one they could find on ebay.
So, back to the best question ever…. “Do you watch Sportscenter?” — My personal favorite Answers Below:
- Ummmm, people don’t?
- You mean like, more than once a day?
- Yea, I’m a guy.
- No, not every day. But that is only because I skip the day before and after the All star break..
- No*, Never*, Why?*
God bless the American male.
UPDATE!:
Click for video.
I actually saw this and thought it was awesome. My guess is that they were doing the top teams and that included #8 Texas. We play them in the 2nd week so figured they just put all helmets of all the teams involved.
Just a guess but we are to the right of Texas so seemed to make sense.

Whats weird is the helmet keeps moving around. It’s now off to the left.
I just checked Boise State’s schedule (The helmet to the left of UCF) and they Don’t play OU at all this season (The helmet to the left of Boise State) — So I’m pretty sure this has nothing to do with schedules.
I wish I knew someone at ESPN who could find out for us.
