he voted against a plus one. This will be good if we get someone for a plus one or playoff system

A playoff would not be beneficial to USF at this time.  As a new member to a BCS league, we need to establish ourselves as a national power, and go to BCS bowls prior to a playoff.  A playoff would level the playing field between the BCS and non BCS leagues.  Thereby taking away any advantage we have over non bcs teams.  Once we establish ouselves as a true national power, say, in 5-10 years, then it would not be harmful.

Look for the non bcs beggars (UCF/Memphis/ECU) to come out of the woodwork with this news, hoping to be included in any BE split.

Maybe the new guy will do something about the horrible BE officiating!

He voted against the Plus one because his bosses -- the university presidents -- are against the plus one... sure he may advise them on his opinion, but if the University Presidents told him to vote for it, he would have voted for it.

I don't see split/expansion as being inevitable bc of a change at the top. And playoff system would be the worst thing to happen to USF right now. Not implying you couldn't win a playoff, but as the other poster said, you guys worked hard to gain the BCS advantage. Playoff system would wipe that away.

One of the most sensible posts I have ever seen from a Knight fan on this board.

Every non-BCS team would like a BCS invite...not just the ones you listed.  USF would be doing the same if there's a split.

I wouldn't want to see a playoff system, either.  Not just for your reasons...but as a college football fan...I love bowl season and the spectacle of it all.  Although...I do admit the current system is flawed and caters to few, rather than the many.
