I thought that's what the internet and sports speculation is for.  Kinda like when everyone here said we wouldn't have an OCS in our lifetime.

Eventually all of this greed will decimate the national fanbase.  The more exclusive they make the national championship process, the less fans they will have.  I am a USF fan, and I'm not going to pi

Everyone involved in managing our pathetic program over the past 10 years should be fired out of a cannon into the bay.

Stop listening to B12 fans on the ACC matters. Highly suggest some of us branch out to other websites to see the opinions of people of fans from the ACC/B1G/SEC on this matter. The only people posted in this thread are B12 fans - their views are not indicative of the actual market.

I know that there are at least 2 B12 schools that absolutely HATE the idea of USF going to the P4.

 

They would explode if the B1G ever showed interest in USF.

Yeah, but why should we be concerned with what Iowa State and Colorado think?

To be fair, it's hard to do when a large chunk of the online Twitter expansionistas are Big 12 dudes. For some reason, a lot of them are WVU fans. Not sure if it's because there's nothing else to do there so they just stay online making up realignment scenarios lol

can someone explain what "conference" OSU/WSU are playing in this year? Will they be playoff eligible? 

Edit = so from what I can tell they are 2 members of the Pac 12 and playing non conference games in partnership with MWC. 

I still don't know if they can "win a conference championship" or need to earn autobids... anyone know this?

To be fair, this thread is now approaching 4,000 pages and is built on a foundation of crazy talk. Please carry on with posting all rumors, especially the ones that have USF going to the ACC. 😬🤘

They would need to go the parth of the 7 at large bids.  Thats why they wanted to higest ranked champion bids from 6 to 5...now they have 7 possible slots instead of 6

Pretty sure they won’t be eligible as conference champion. They’re only in is as one of the top ranked teams.

Back in November, the CFP board passed a rule amendment that requires a conference to have 8 teams in order to be eligible for the conference champ autobids. 

This is separate from the NCAA's 2 year grace period allowing the PAC to exist as a conference despite being below the required 8, which is why some OSU/WSU were confused and thought they could still get an autobid from the PAC2. They won't be able to. They can go as an at large but that's a tall task with a mostly MWC schedule.

Good to know the PAC2 conference champion with a 1-0 record doesn't get an autobid!
