Eight is seven FB games.
Going 12 (9 w/FB) makes scheduling better: 8 conf FB games; BB travel pairs (22 games).

I think to be legitimate it needs to be all sports. Not this one conference for this and one conference for that foolishness that we now have.
Misery loves company.
UNGOVERNABLE
Montana-Montana State
UCD-Sac State
Idaho-Weber State
NDSU-UND
SDSU-USD
UNI-ISUR(both football only)
Could look at Omaha, KC, ORU and Denver as non-football members.
NDSU to the FBS always. In all ways.
That's an awesome new FCS conference you are creating.
NCAA/FBS rules make it pretty much impossible to create a new FBS conference without existing FBS schools. And even that would be a challenge. The powers that be in FBS are doing everything they can to put the nails in PAC's coffin rather than let it rebuild.
3-4 more get in, and that's it folks, door slams shut. People within FBS are working actively to make sure it slams hard
So I sure as hell hope ML isn't banking 100 % on his theory, and from what people on here are saying, I don't think he is (see MWC a year ago). He sure doesn't like to show his cards though
I understand Mo St to CUSA and fully expected this to happen.
As much as I hate this answer...We may be better off being a big fish in the FCS pond than an insignificant baitfish in the FBS waters.
