A new and better FBS thread

[daddy daycare]

G5 teams will be forced to take non conference scheduling seriously if they want to be the top G5 team. They need to schedule tough games like Cinci did last year.

As far as the MWC getting poached I don’t see it with this 12 team playoff why would the PAC-8 want to add any teams if they only have 8 teams to compete against and increase their odds. This playoff will be changing the landscape once again.

We cannot move to the CUSA and expect to move to another conference later with no guarantees . We may be stuck in the CUSA forever.

All good points. No reason for the MWC to change now. You are correct.

CUSA it is. I wish Bunnies and Montanas would roll with NDSU but that's unlikely.

I actually like you, DD. And I'm gonna take your question as sincere. Like, do I honest think that. I honestly think that with 2-3 seasons as I described, then yes. I think we'd be a top 15 team and I think we'd get an opportunity in the playoff. First year, no. Second year maybe. 3 years of undefeated and literal dominance (which of course is not guaranteed that we would do that), then yes. I think we would be included in a 12-team version. I honestly do.

In this scenario what kind of non conference wins do you see us having to be the top G5 team while playing a CUSA schedule?

The only way I’m taking a a CUSA invite is if we take 5 other teams with us to create a CUSA North division. That is the ONLY way I ever see CUSA working out!!!!

Well, hopefully we'd pull in some regional P5's once in a while. SHSU playing TAM. I mean, play it out. First year of eligibility and we cream the conference and win our OOCs (which may well be mediocre teams). We go to a low level bowl and kick whoever's ass. People wonder if we should have gotten a better bowl. We finish top 20. Year two...we kill everyone again, including OOC. Decent teams start to schedule us for future OOC because a win is a good win and a loss isn't death. We draw a decent bowl against a decent (winning record) P5. We beat them. Year three...we start out season top 15. Season progresses the same as before. Also, maybe the other G5 conf winners are not undefeated. We are. People think we deserve a shot. There's general fan interest to see how we can go. No one cares that we are CUSA. People dont remember if Boise was WAC or MWC when they beat Oklahoma. We get a playoff birth. I believe it could happen just like that.

Best team getting housed by 8 TDs or the G5 tells the P5 to piss off and does their own thing. That's how.

There is little reason to think they'll get beat that bad regularly. Any given year, there is a couple G5's that can play/beat a top ten team.

I dont think anyone (including G5 fans) would be excited to watch a G5 tourney if the best G5 team isn't there.

It would be 100x more interesting than the G5 bowl games.

Could happen? In an absolutely perfect world, sure. 1% chance…you’re telling me there’s a chance.

THE TOP 6 CONFERENCES GET A SPOT IN TOP 6 SPOTS.

so highest ranked G5 conference will get a representative in this

NDSU could easily be that if MWC or AAC or CUSA is in there

Easily. No. That’s ridiculous.

Easily. No. That’s ridiculous.

if NDSU is in MWC and they are the 6th ranked conference and NDSU is the MWC champion. then they are IN

easily
