The Auburn Tigers will try to end their season on a high note, but it won’t be easy, as they’ll take on an undefeated UCF squad in the Peach Bowl on New Year’s Day.
However, ESPN host Paul Finebaum recently said he believes the Tigers have what it takes to “dust” UCF in the high-profile bowl game.
On Tuesday afternoon, outgoing UCF coach Scott Frost ripped Finebaum for the comments, saying that no one outside of the SEC footprint really cares what he has to say:
Scott Frost on Paul Finebaum's comment that Auburn should 'dust' UCF in the Peach Bowl. "I don't listen to Paul Finebaum because unless you're an SEC fan he doesn't have much to say that you like."

Those are some strong comments, but UCF has the high-powered offense to back them up.
This will be Frost’s last game as UCF’s coach before he leaves to take on the Nebraska job, so he understandably wants to finish off a perfect season and leave on a high note.
However, UCF hasn’t played anyone with a defense like Auburn’s so the Peach Bowl is sure to be must-watch TV on New Year’s Day.
