<snip>
"Florida lawmakers are being asked to do something the College Football Playoff Committee wont: Declare the UCF Knights national champions.
Kevin Cate, a Democratic consultant and Auburn University graduate, tweeted this week that the Legislature should consider a resolution proclaiming UCF the nations best football team after it knocked off Auburn 34-27 in the Peach Bowl on New Years Day."

"Theyre undefeated, and they beat a team that beat both of the teams in the national championship game, in my Auburn Tigers, Cate said Wednesday. It may be symbolic in nature, but the players, coaches and school deserve it.
I think anyone who was watching that Auburn game even if youre an Auburn fan like me if you didnt get the chills watching that, I cant help you.

"Soon after Mondays game ended, UCF declared itself national champions. Athletic Director Danny White told ESPN the school was planning a parade and tweeted it would raise a banner signifying a national championship in Spectrum Stadium."
