How did ODU steal one of the CAA playoff spots? They're not eligible for the AQ, and that is the only "playoff spot" any conference truly has. As for Georgia State bringing down the GPI on their way to FBS, I'm as concerned about the GPI as an Albany fan.
FCS playoff rulebook selection criteria and rules:
Superman wins.Quote:
2. There is no limit to the number of teams the committee may select from one conference;
Unless you are saying had these teams not played ODU and had they played another team instead they would have a better record, thus warranting an atlarge.
The only way I can see ODU taking spots away from other CAA teams is if you're try and tell me that TU/NOVA/JMU/RICH get to 8 wins a lot easier with someone like GaSt/RI/W&M on the schedule instead. But then you get into the argument of would they be a strong enough 8-3 team. Fact of the matter is that ODU is very good football team and gets a playoff spot regardless of conference.
Agree w Supe this is a nonissue. Unless one expects 6 CAA teams to be in.
ODU has fully embraced our FCS and CAA experience, and has sold out our stadium for four straight years to prove it. An opportunity came along (earlier than many of us would have predicted) that allows us to move to FBS. You'd do the same, given the opportunity.
Quit whining like some jilted chubby manipulative girl that did not get a date to the prom. It is unbecoming of someone representing the fanbase of a storied and well-respected FCS power like Appy State.
Well both GSU and ASU have designs on heading to FBS as well. So should the SoCon fans of Wofford and Furman be thinking the same thing of your team? ODU has long been a member of the CAA, just because their football team was not long with the conference does not mean much to me. Now GaState I agree with, they were a useless addition to the CAA originally and even more so for Football. UNCC is no issue as they have not, nor will ever be any part of the the CAA.
