  1. Re: An increase in the number of seeds in the FCS playoffs?

    Valley is at 11 again with WIU going OVC.

    The rest of the NCAA can rejoice for an extra bid.
  2. Re: An increase in the number of seeds in the FCS playoffs?

    No I'm not.

    A NCAA sponsored event taking an automatic bid away from an NCAA sanctioned conference champion beacuse that champion isn't "good enough" is what you're advocating.

    Fine. We then...
  3. Re: An increase in the number of seeds in the FCS playoffs?

    Then we need to remove the autobid from basketball.

    Sorry, YSU. I know you're having a good year and have a 99% chance of taking the autobid from the Horizon this year but guess what? In the big...

    Re: Delaware to CUSA

    WKU has been chasing the laser since they moved in 06 and they are going to end up where they should have been from the start.

    Moving forward both are in the same position. Both leagues are extremely good at the top, the middle makes or breaks the league, and the bottom is...well...the bottom.

    It will be the conference that it should have been for the last decade but neither UMASS nor WKU was willing to admit it was their best home.

    Re: Sacred Heart - FCS Independent

    The A10 is at 15, outside of adding 1 more to get to 16 because "even number" they are so large I can't imagine they want to do too much expanding.

    Morehouse is private, are they not? There isn't much/any state funding.

    I don't think UNI has a rivalry game. There are teams that could be, teams that used to be, and games that have a "bit more" from a fan perspective but nothing really rivalry related.
