Whatever happens with this year's bowl game aside, these last few weeks have done wonders for the image of UCF as a future power 5 conference member.   I have to believe more than one conference will come calling when expansion happens.   The positives that have been on display :
1) sellout crowds ( name a P5 that is doing that lately)
2) a raucous stadium environment
3) a location that everyone loves and is easy to get to
4) a good sized, and growing, TV market
5) located in a great area for recruiting
6) some name recognition and cache recently
7) improving academics ( already #2 in Florida in the some big programs and a new med school up and running)

I believe ucf will be the first choice in future conference expansions for the reasons above.  To seal the deal, they just need to get basketball competitive.    They are far and away the better choice than UConn or even Cincinnati.  In reality, all they have to be is better than USF to get first choice on where to land.
