FCS schools have nothing to do with this, G6 schools are larger and have a

bigger following. If people are going to watch them for Bowls that are exhibition games, they are going to watch them even more if a National Championship is on the line, there is no way you can convince me otherwise. You are not going to change your mind, and neither am I. So let’s just leave it we agree to disagree.

G6 not interested. They are part of FBS for a reason.
Maroon Baboon • 01/22/26 11:46 PM ET
Exactly. I suspect the G6 schools see the economics of the situation and
VTHokie2000 • 01/24/26 12:53 PM ET
We need a football NIT, but for everyone, not just the G6.
Truthahn • 01/23/26 01:15 PM ET
Yes. And I also don't want the G6 shut out of the CFP either.**

This - and let the players get paid for

Will people watch the FNIT though? It is a question worth asking since it
VTHokie2000 • 01/23/26 04:11 PM ET
Sure they would. I would, you would, and if VT
Big12 guy • 01/23/26 04:25 PM ET
Actually, I wouldn't watch it unless VT was in it. Even if VT was in it,

The target audience is for people who don’t complain about bowl games**
marcbvtgm • 01/24/26 01:48 PM ET
I don't complain about the bowl game, but I still doubt I am their target
VTHokie2000 • 01/24/26 02:36 PM ET
You are not the medias target market then. I would watch. It
Big12 guy • 01/23/26 04:39 PM ET
Oh I know I am not the media's target because I don't gamble on sports.**
VTHokie2000 • 01/23/26 07:17 PM ET
I know that is your opinion, but where is your proof they aren't interested
Stech • 01/23/26 10:41 AM ET
Alumus may want it, but do the school presidents and ADs want it though?
VTHokie2000 • 01/23/26 03:56 PM ET
True Presidents need to want it, and historically Presidents want more $$$.
Stech • 01/23/26 05:42 PM ET
I am not sure viewership will be better given the competition they will be
VTHokie2000 • 01/23/26 07:16 PM ET
Why wouldn’t it be? Opt Out Bowls are exhibition games with nothing on line

The FCS school are relevant though because it will give you and everyone
VTHokie2000 • 01/24/26 12:23 AM ET
Bowls become P4 Playoff and G6 Playoff, nothing to do with FCS, all 3 are
Stech • 01/24/26 07:20 AM ET
If you re-read my post, then you will see my reference to the FCS Playoffs
VTHokie2000 • 01/24/26 12:49 PM ET
You're right, it is my opinion.
Maroon Baboon • 01/23/26 03:36 PM ET
I mean, if they're not in the CFP, why wouldn't they want to be in a-
