If they do, then so be it. We would end up with three levels

Based off of who is currently in the P2. and not sure where ND will fall in this. FBS D 1-A, Top tier P2 $$$ level with BIG and SEC competing for a national title (34 teams, 12 team playoff) FBS D 1-A, Second tier level with ACC and B12 (include the PAC, AAC, MTW, MAC, SUN, CUSA) competing for a national title (95 teams, ? playoff) FCS Third tier D1-AA competing for a national title (128 teams, 24 team playoff) and for comparison: NFL 32 teams, 14 team playoff ** Edited by HokieAl at 2/27/2024, 12:32:52 PM ** Edited by HokieAl at 2/27/2024, 1:18:48 PM

Ok then they gotta leave for everything.
mancunian • 02/27/24 01:52 PM ET
I think they want that, especially the 🏀 money for a tournament.

Off topic but what a letdown that Mark Felt's family sold his secret as

Stech • 02/27/24 01:40 PM ET
