Sac is not paying a guarantee for that kind of travel. They can probably pick up a SLC team.
That said, it would be great for Georgetown to get any interest from a school west of I-95.

What will the Ivy League think about a national ranking? Creeping professionalism in its ranks! xeyebrowx
More than a few eyebrows were raised when College of Faith was once able to schedule Division I teams, but it's become all too common with unaccredited, borderline education-based institutions can...
Be it ever so humble, Villanova still has a better setup than Georgetown or Butler.
Putting aside the Ivies, gameday facilities in college football tend to trend with program success: the better the program, the more likely it is for them to have a competitive stadium. CAA schools...
It's impossible, but it's the off season, after all.
Penn, Yale, and Harvard (in that order) stand the test of time. Princeton is a great place to watch a game but it lacks the history of the...
It's not even in the top half in the Ivy League.
That would be contrary to a college athlete. Holy Cross does not need a 31 year old at QB who is mindlessly taking classes for a degree he already earned.
A. J. McCarron is 31 years old.
This has to be the most unusual four game start in many years:
08/27 – at Florida State
09/03 – at Youngstown State
09/10 – Thomas More
09/17 – at Hawaii
Hopefully they won't be tagged with the "strength of schedule" issue given what could be poor seasons ahead at Georgetown and Bucknell.
On the other side of the ledger is Harvard: 21 FCS opponents.
Minus the Ivy and Patriot, that's seven other FCS schools.
Three buildings, one residence hall, no home games.

Only 14 schools in FCS do this. However, as I've said before, the lack of need aid above "demonstrated" puts Georgetown at a disadvantage against merit schools when "demonstrated need" does not cover...
The Pioneer schools actually offer scholarships--merit scholarships. Not all schools do.
Thanks for the clarification.
Where I could see this going is, in the absence of widespread consensus that the NCAA acts in a conference's interests, each conference (or group of conferences)...
This is overblown. There were no caps on scholarships prior to the 1978 split. How many schools were running 125 or 130 below the Top 15?
If you make football a head count sport, it's not like a...
Speaking of viability...

1,086 students would be a 4A high school in the UIL.
Chicago State has 1,086 full time students and an athletic budget of $6.3 million.
The least funded MEAC football program is priced at $2.5 million, and that's with its own stadium and practice...
This one?

If they add just approximately 22 more scholarships, HC is back in the little big time alongside UConn and UMass, and maybe that's where BC ends up after the ACC is raided.
Meanwhile, Colgate...
The problem when you get above 12 is that, absent a lot of money (read=SEC), it is not sustainable. No one wants to finish 15th or 16th. A lot of conferences have been overinflated through the years...
The Georgetown neighborhood of Washington DC (where the university was named after) was named after George II.
It varies by school, and hasn't been an advantage for Georgetown because it can't get enough kids admitted in the first place.
