We are still paying for that Appalachian State thing ... and we should.

How are you still paying for it? You think your program took a shit because they lost to app state? Or you suppose they lost to app state on their way to taking a shit?

Yeah, your team lost... no one would bring it up if they won.

No one likes FCS games from a fan point of view, but they aren’t going away. Keep thinking beating up on and coasting though Western Michigan is some how more respectable because they happen to play in shitty bowl games instead of a playoff.

Do you think any of those 14 teams, have ever had a head coach spend the night at recruits, parents house?

I was just thinking that Michigan, Texas, Florida, LSU, Tennessee and Florida State need to get back to being good. (Probably left out a few.)

Become relevant again, stop bragging about European trips and sleep overs and we will take you serious.

I hate that about college football. There should be a penalty for scheduling OOC cupcakes.

How about in conference cupcakes?

Or we can do both, call it strength of schedule and...oh that's what they do already.

Yep, in all aspects. FBS teams get the home game ticket sales and FCS teams get their payout which in turn allows their athletic department to have other sports. It even allows FCS teams to play Div. II teams with the money filtering down further.

There is little risk to the FBS team, but if course you do have the upsets like VT took against JMU coming off a short week tough loss to Boise State a decade ago.

Maybe they could play IMG Academy next year. All you need is a razor to shave off the hair and we got ourselves a game.

Hey, Samford and Son almost beat Florida State.
