Did a quick check of WAC, MAC, CUSA, MWC, Sun Belt, and Independant teams to see how many played 6 or more home games in '07. Of the 26 teams that had 6 or more home games, 18 hosted 1AA opponents. Is a 1AA home opponent a realistic necessity to assure 6 home games ? MOUNTAIN WEST (home games - # 1AA) Air Force 7-1 BYU 6-1 Colorado State 6-1 UNLV 6-0 New Mexico 6-1 TCU 6-0 CUSA (home games - #1AA) UCF 6-0 ECU 6-0 Marxhall 6-1 Memphis 7-1 Rice 6-1 UTEP 6-1 Tulsa 6-0 MAC (home games - #1AA) Akron 6-0 N.

Off the muts board. Posted by SpaceRaider West Virginia, South Florida and Boise State have become household names. South Florida didn’t even exist until 1997. This is the equivalent of you getting kicked out of the club only to see your moron cousin in the VIP room making it rain. Permanent cellar-dwellers like Kansas and Wake Forest are defeating Nebraska and Florida State. Hell, Boise State, Utah and West Virginia have more combined BCS wins (four) than Florida State, Michigan, Nebraska and Notre Dame put together (three). To fans of the dominant teams from the 90s ,this is the equivalent of Poland invading Germany and then beating their ass during Oktoberfest. Or the French beating anyone at anything. It is simply not supposed to happen. FULL ARTICLE http://thebiglead.com/?p=5929

Posted on Muts board by SpaceRaider Exerpt from DU student newspaper The talk of changing conferences has been going on now for a few seasons but finally became a true reality when the SBC came out with a Wyatt Committee report. The first point of the membership standards where that all member institutions had to sponsor a minimum of 15 sports that the conference offers a championship and that Denver and New Orleans were given a five-year grace period to reach the standard. Thus meaning that DU has until 2012-13 to find itself a new conference to join. Denver in search of a new conference http://media.www.duclarion.com/media/stora...e-3373576.shtml
