Bull-by-Marriage Posted January 1, 2013 Group: Bull Backers Topic Count: 355 Content Count: 4,741 Reputation: 127 Days Won: 3 Joined: 02/25/2004 Share Posted January 1, 2013 New conference. Start with a base of Florida schools. USF, UCF, FIU, FAU, then add 6 teams located in the SE. Limit travel expenses for the teams and fans, create some out of close proximity rivalries. That would be terrible. Why? It's a wild ass idea, but why do you think that it would be terrible? Are we '"above" anyone else that would be in that conference? As Databull said, from a TV perspective it has zero appeal. I would also add that the on field quality wouldn't be appealing either. It is certainly not "SEC lite" as someone said. I think there are much better schools out there to form a conference with or build the Big East with. U of Ohio, Tulsa to name 2. Not great names, but quality has been strong over the past couple of years. I'm not saying wild, unique ideas aren't needed, but putting USF in the class of FIU and FAU is a big disservice to us. I think the quality of our department is far superior to theirs. Fair enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this isn't another distraction for our football program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This conference would be stronger than the MWC currently is. This could also screw Boise leaving them on the outside looking in most of the time.

Didn't the MAC have three teams ranked in final BCS? They had at least two. This may be a wild card idea, the MAC has always been a fun brand to watch. Plus, if NIU beats FSU tonite, it could spark something!!! I say to hell with it, and invite some MAC teams!!! We already added one, and lost to it. And I love the name too!! The BIG MAC Conference. I co-sign! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
