Yeah, I think one would be hard pressed to find a person who is a fan of a 13-team FCS conference. If there were divisions and a championship game to ensure an undefeated team doesn't shirk playing all or most of the other top teams in the conference, that would help. Going to 12 next year will help. No one seems to be saying having 12 teams is giving the CAA any advantage. Getting down to 10 would even be acceptable - each team would play everyone except 1 team and there would be enough round robin among the teams to get a general idea of the pecking order (unless like this year Team A beat Team B who beat Team C who beat..... Team A
). 13 though... you're only playing 2/3 of the teams. Way too much subjectivity.
