That's impossible to say. Logic says you are correct, but there is no way to know that for sure, because they never have the chance to play that schedule.

I am not one those that thinks UCF should have been in over any of the 4 teams chosen (or even the next couple left out), but I think the CFP committee needs to give serious consideration to changing the playoffs to make it a little more fair. FBS football is the only college sport that gives the smaller schools zero chance at a National Title. In baseball, if you're good enough, you have a shot (ask Coastal). Basketball, softball, tennis, golf, and every other sport is the exact same way. FBS football selects only 4 teams...with varying criteria year to year, and calls those the best.

Of course I understand that you'll never make everyone happy. If you pick 8, #9 will be pissed. If you make it 16, #17 won't be happy. I would love to see an 8 team playoff that selects the 5 P5 conference winners, top G5 program (there is usually little doubt about who this team is), and the top two teams that didn't fall into those categories. While that still has it's weaknesses, it's better than the current setup IMO.
While you can argue there's no definitive way to say UCF would not have gone undefeated since they didn't play a SEC schedule, common sense tells you otherwise.

Oh I agree, but common sense also said Coastal doesn't win a National Championship in baseball. Again, I'm not arguing for UCF to replace any of the 4 chosen, just that they (and any deserving G5) deserved an opportunity.....even if the odds were stacked against them. Just because they can't get into a bigger conference doesn't mean they should never get the opportunity to play for all the marbles.
You can not compare any other sport to football. There are 5 times as many people (including staff) to deal with and move around. You can't play multiple games a week much less on the same weekend. Then there's the cost for a fan to follow his team. SEC reg season ticket prices are $300 (non premium seats) with a $275 donation . Ticket prices for the SEC championship game averaged $350. Suger Bowl tickets averaged $300 & Rose Bowl $400. Add another round then the championship game of $1400. So for 2 people for the whole ride (assuming you get the tickets) you're in for around $5000 not including travel & food. That's a tad more than what it cost for the FCS playoffs.
