I am not confusing anything

What I am saying is that they went out of their way to remark how SMU was a bad choice for the league but SMU in year one is now potentially in line to play in the football championship game while their team has only won one game all season. That to me is hilarious. They did not smack down Stanford or Cal in their complaint. ** Edited by CobbCountyHokie at 10/22/2024, 10:05:34 AM

When I think of the misguided FSU lawsuit, I cannot help thinking of SMU

That didn’t age very well did it?

SMU has beaten FSU every time they played.

Their being in line for the champ game has little to do with worthiness

The BigXII didn't need another school from Texas.

The Seminole tribe should reconsider approval to use their name.

SMU has all the resources they need to compete in the P4.

Thanks, guys!

Right. The new coin of the realm is coins, lots of NIL coins.

There are some other schools primed as well to buy

BYU does have both as well. And religious schools have another advantage...

There could easily be 2 undefeated G6 champs in coming years. **

If you are referring to Army or Navy, then you should keep in mind that

No, I wasn't even referring to this year. I think that any team in FBS that

From where I'm sitting, KU football has never been on network television
Big12 guy • 10/23/24 03:29 PM ET
Well the conference networks do need content too and that shouldn't change
VTHokie2000 • 10/23/24 03:36 PM ET
There is a ton of content out there. Streaming needs content as well.

I get the screw them with how Texas treated the B12, I have a mixed opinion

In the grand scheme, UNC is much more puppet master than FSU

After FSU, every ACC expansion move was to lure Notre Dame

The addition of BC was to please Donna Shalala.

ND will not join a league for football until their path to the playoff
CobbCountyHokie • 10/22/24 10:04 AM ET
ND with one loss WILL always be in the playoffs.

Your "cure" is the same as the "disease"

Independence is a big part of their brand. Someone mentioned it earlier -

NBC isn't giving up 7 ND games
mrcaniac • 10/22/24 11:38 PM ET
They'd potentially gain 3-4 more ND road games. At worst, a wash.
reestuart • 10/23/24 08:06 AM ET
NBC will have 4-5 games max
mrcaniac • 10/23/24 10:09 PM ET
The Big Ten thought that would happen last year
TerryD • 10/23/24 08:19 AM ET
I hope it works out for ND. But everything changes.**
