Next play…er!
Would Battie have benefited us? Probably.
I don’t think the positives would have outweighed the headache that this precedent would have allowed.
We will do them one better:
A 1 conference, xfl-style system.
Orrrr, maybe we can lobby congress to impose extremely large taxes on to airport travel to artificially increase the cost to fly the team out, thus forcing all conferences to go regional again.
What if it was a tiered profit sharing?
1st place teams gets x, 2nd place teams gets y, and so on down the line.
Cap coaching contracts and go from there.
Could have been Bama this year, and should have been UF on the road last year. Thankfully we lost and CJS got canned. I think it may have been different if he beat UF.
You are probably right, I don’t know how they are really. Honestly though, if they want football and are unable to lower their standards then either independent or .
New look mountain west conference?
with the addition of pac 2 plus cal/stanford MWC might be considered the best G5.
I think a lot of conferences are saturated with east coast teams (B1G and B12 aside) B1G needs a Florida school, and B12 needs a travel partner for UCF and WVU.
I think the p-conferences try to tear each other apart first, then if all else fails they turn to G5 which has the AAC and MWC as the top two targets. No one should touch CUSA (I don’t know why they exist). Sun Belt and MAC seem safe as well.
The dichotomy of man. The conference is probably even with the B12 at that point.
I imagine the leftovers of the American would merge with MWC. CUSA top teams leave for Funbelt, and rest merge with MAC.
So, power 2; Middle 2; Bottom 2 with pro-rel. Each pair has their own 8 team playoff or whatever it is at that point. Bowl games for conference championships and playoffs (15 bowl games?).
