Re: CCUs 54 in 54 Iniative

Why not just drop money like Georgia State?

Re: Conference expansion ripple to FCS

There is nothing "Colonial" about Atlanta. :coffee: Wait, when did we change the history books and exclude Georgia as one of the 13 original colonies? Do the text book manufacturers know this? Did this happen when we jettisoned Pluto? :coffee: Atlanta is a railroad town and didn't exist i...

Re: RUMOR: SC State applies for CIAA (D2) membership

SC State is currently losing over $10 million every year (it may be closer to $20 million). State funding hasn't been cut, but SCSU is not attracting good students, and a large percentage of their students are not performing well enough and lose their lottery scholarships after one year and drop out...

Re: South Carolina State considers dropping to DII

As heretical as it seems, a drop to D2 by SCSU would not be a disastrous thing. Their primary games and rivalries are with other HBCU's, As long as they could maintain rivalries with other HBCU's, they should do well. The major propblem with dropping a division, is that they would likely lose many o...

Re: Furman & Elon to the CAA??

Of the schools discussed, I think that only CoC and Elon would seriously consider making a move to the currently configured CAA. Neither have that much time invested in the SoCon, and it could be a good move for both. It would put Elon more in the footprint of their student population, and it would...

Re: Could the SoCon send 4 teams to the playoffs this year?

With a four way tie, would it be possible that a SoCon champion would be left out? FU would get the autobid. GSU and ASU would get bids for history and reputation. Would the committee have the nerve to woof Wofford again? No way! (crossing fingers) Georgia Southern - 6-2 (9-2) Wofford - 6-2 (8-3) F...

Re: Could the SoCon send 4 teams to the playoffs this year?

Good bump. I was noticing the same thing. SOCON is probably the best conference this year. Thanks! No real surprises, though. Even with their 'indiscretions' last Spring it was easy to see The Vermin as a young, talented bunch with a great upside; so no surprises for me with their win yesterday. Fo...

Re: FCS Update: Final Prognostication

At 7-4, I doubt GSU would get a first round bye. I expect them to host a first round game against Coastal or a MEAC team.

Re: Why does Wofford suck so bad in Boone recently?

It has really only been the last two trips that we played really badly. In 2006 we gave App one of their closest games of the year, a 14-7 App win. 2004 wasn't a good game, but wasn't a blow-out. And the 2002 team spoiled App's homecoming. It's a mental problem, likely with the coaching staff. Befor...
