    Default 56 out of 111

    Does the 47 out of 100 include the teams who want to play?

    47 of the 111
    50% is 56

    Can we get 9 teams to play an independent schedule?


    I suspect JMU, Montana, and Montana State would be on board.

    Can we get 6 more teams?

    Ivy counts. Currently at 60/119(50.42%) pending Big Sky. If they cancel, it drops to 47/119(39.50%). And that's counting JMU, Elon and Villanova as yeses.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    So were pretty much fucked outside of organizing a few Bowl Games like the FBS does. That could be interesting. It wouldn't be official but the bowl system isnt official either. So can we get 13 teams in addition to JMU, Elon, and Villanova to play we could hit 50%

    So an article said more 2/3 of the Big Sky voted no. Does that mean probably 5 teams are committed? We only need 13 in additional to the 3 committed CAA schools. Could web get 9 more out of the other conferences?

    You guys keep assuming that everyone in the Valley is a "hard" in. I'm guessing schools like WIU are just hoping things shake out and they don't have to play this fall. And aren't going to opt out until necessary.

    Big Sky football is moving to spring today, and when that happens Montana and Montana Statue will be out completely this fall.

    Not if they move to Spring. And this says something. The historically premier conference that has been the face of D1AA/FCS since 1990's voted no on playing this fall. That says something.
