A new and better FBS thread

I believe the PAC-12 also needs at least one football only member. I would take the PAC-12 football only invite over the Mountain West football only invite.

Could be wrong but I believe it needs to be a full member that has football?

Sacramento state trying to pimp themselves at the beginning of the year about how they’re one of the top programs in FCS. Haven’t heard from them in a while, wonder why that is lmfao

Correct, you need 8 full members minimum in FBS. PAC currently has 7, MWC will have 8 and might lose more. FB only invites make absolutely no sense. Sorry folks, that ain't happening. Reporters certainly know how to get clicks from the masses though.

Hope you are right, maybe I jinxed it in a good way. Just think folks should be prepared for this to take some time, and not melt down if it isn't done quick.

For MW it could be football only imo. PAC has only slightly better odds than us joining B12, for a variety of reasons. It will be MW imo. Have been saying for years now that will be our best entry point.

Post like you do know more. Everyone else does here.

What are the requirements during the transition period? Is it 2 years? You probably wouldn't be officially be added until July of 2026 even if you are invited now. Would the transition period start in 26? Does that mean you couldn't be bowl eligible or the conference champ until the 2028 season.

Do you have 2 years to pay the 5 million or is that due on day one in 2026. Do You have 2 years from 06 to provide more scholarships? If you are football only does FBS still require you to add more sports if you don't meet the minimum? Do you have 2 years to do that?

This is all so much different than when Nevada moved up.

I believe the MW needs FB only and has stated publicly that that is exactly what they are looking for, so, you know, there’s THAT at least…
