Re: Best conferences
I dont think the MVFC is the best. I dont think the BSC is either.

Re: Best conferences
Nobody ever set out any criteria for what makes a conference the best. Using both performance on the field and attendance, providing a holistic and more comprehensive, meaningful approach, I would put the top five in this order:
1) SoCo-#1 in attendance and arguably the best on the field
2) CAA-#2 in attendance and arguably the best on the field
3) MVFC-Outdraws the BSC by +100,000, has more depth and comparable playoff history. The National Championship game appearances dont over come the attendance advantage, especially when it is this big!
4) BSC-Strong contender with a couple premier programs and a lower tier. Doesnt draw well outside of Montana.
5) Southland-Strong in attendance and on the field.

Re: Best conferences
About what I thought it'd look like.....1. CAA Football - Old Dominion would seem to be entering the conference at the right time - perhaps it's a down year? - but the reality is, there are few breathers in the CAA schedule in any season. William & Mary is back to being a national title contender after what it hopes was a hiccup in last year's playoffs, when they lost their first game at home as the No. 2 seed. Delaware suffered some big-time seniors, but it still has head coach K.C. Keeler, and that means a lot. Either Richmond, New Hampshire or Massachusetts (ineligible for the conference title or FCS playoffs as it gets set to move to the FBS next year) will likely give the conference a third outstanding team, and retooling Villanova, which probably lost the nation's best senior class, and an improved James Madison, with returning quarterback Justin Thorpe, will cause a lot of headaches and perhaps make the playoffs. Yes, it's foolish to doubt this conference.
2. Southern Conference - It's demolition derby at the top of the SoCon. The schedule favors Wofford, which gets to host both Appalachian State and Georgia Southern, while Georgia Southern will be visiting both of its top two foes. There's no shortage of star power with that trio of teams, including ASU quarterback DeAndre Presley, GSU nose tackle Brent Russell and Wofford fullback Eric Breitenstein and defensive end Ameet Pall. The middle and bottom tiers of the nine-team conference don't seem as strong as the CAA.
3. Big Sky Conference - Eastern Washington's September schedule looks daunting, until you look at Montana's opening slate. And that's where you wonder if a team can rise up to the level of the defending national champion Eagles and Montana State. This high-scoring, star-studded conference has had a national championship game qualifier in each of the last three seasons, but Montana, which was the runner-up in 2008 and '09, seems to have lost its footing within the conference, let alone nationally. So it seems coach Beau Baldwin's experienced Eagles squad and Montana State, which features redshirt quarterback DeNarius McGhee, are on a higher level again.
4. Missouri Valley Football Conference - The other definitive power has a lot to prove this season. Its defending champion, Northern Iowa, bowed out of the first round of last year's playoffs at home against Patriot League champion Lehigh. There was great balance in the conference last season and this season could be similar. North Dakota State is hoping to build on last season's excellent playoff run and could be a Top 10 team. Southern Illinois, Western Illinois, Indiana State and Illinois State also are part of the deep conference.

Re: Best conferences
Seems good to me. This may be a homer thing, but I would put them in this order...
1. - CAA
2. - SOCON
2. - BSC
3. - MVFC
Actually on second thought, I didn't factor in conference attendance figures (the most important aspect of course). I don't know how this slipped my mind.
EASILY decided at MVFC at a distant number 1

Big Sky and CAA are 3-3 the last three seasons.

Re: Best conferences
Obviously the tie-breaker on that deal is attendance backed up by national championship game wins.

You fellas are fuckin' funny, I'll give you that. If not for injuries, crooked refs or cowbells, you'd be national champs every fucking year.

I wouldn't argue too much against that. It's been a lot of Appy and very little else in the SoCon since GSU and Furman went away. GSU is showing signs of life again, so maybe that changes.

Re: Best conferences
Colonial, Big Sky, SOCON, and Missouri Valley are the top 4 IMO.
I would put:
1. SOCON
2. CAA
3. Big Sky
4. MVC
OVC needs to have a premier team like Jacksonville State step up.
