A new and better FBS thread

Dude. Your call was great. I'm seriously convinced the ah shucks small time crowd wants to be big dog in small kennel forever and likes being trophy chasers (aka st thomas academy) The dome was quiet as hell today students left when we went up 24-10 & we dominated by not even playing well offensively

Seriously, what is the appeal of moving up to FBS the way it is structured now? So we can play in some crappy 3rd rate Bowl game on a weeknight in a half full stadium in mid December? Yippe!! That would sure make us Big Time!!

Now if there is a shake-up and the Bison and the upper level MVC teams are in a division with Georgia Southern/Ap State/others who recently departed FCS and other non P-5 schools AND we get a playoff system to play for a legit championship?? Then I am all in.

The appeal is playing in a 20 team playoff. 4 teams is going to grow to 8--16--then 20. The Bowl system will be dead within 8 years.

64 TEAMS IN THE POWER 5. How many do you think they are going to let in out of their conference?????? NONE!

20 teams????? OK......

There are billions of dollars in a 19 game national playoff. The "small" five conferences have more power than you think. Without them and others the NCAA basketball tournament loses its appeal.

BTW, 80% of all ADs polled indicated the playoffs will be expanded within the next 10 years. Nobody in college football believes the current 12 year contract will NOT be broken when there are billions of dollars to be made. The SEC is going to bitch this year if they only have 2 teams or less in playoffs. If that happens, you could have 8 teams within two years.

Even if FBS eventually goes to an 8, 16, or 20 team playoff, the Bison and teams like us would not get one of those spots so then what are we left playing for?? A spot in the prestigious Beef O' Brady's Bowl? No thanks!!
