We did it boys!

This morning on the Ticket, Craig Miller brought up the point that FBS will eventually be the Power School because the Group of Five schools will never be allowed a spot in the playoff because the programs are always looked down upon by the powers of CFB. He’s spot on here.

Ill say it again, but the G5 level of play is the only level of football that doesn’t get to play for a national championship and gleefully takes the crumbs as the whores for the P5. Their media only covers us as filler content and won’t make these conferences expand to include anyone. Whether you like it or not, the future for G5’s will be our own playoff system in the years ahead. I still believe the timing for this is when the Big 12 folds when it’s GOR expires in 2025 and their leftovers go back to being G5 and we only have 4 power conferences.

The fact is the proof is in the pudding and so far we have done not a thing.

This listing should be a wake up call to the coaches.

I already saw in this thread the old school whiny it was close moral victory BS. NEVER GO BACK TO THIS CRAP

We have done nothing yet this year its time to whip-ass. It better start this Saturday.

You forget NT has had that as a member of 1aa. Few cared at all about that mighty 1aa championship .

If G5 became a real classification and had a championship playoff, it would be exactly the same as what NT had as a 1aa team.

The general football fan played little attention to the 1aa playoffs and NT's attendance in those days was pitiful.

These P5 media outlets don’t give two $hits about G5’s. This is only surprising to those not clued in about what these networks want and do for their conferences.

Very few outside of the small fan bases of the programs give two $hits about G5s. That's just reality. G5 college football is probably on par with division 2 English soccer while top P5 college football is nearly in line with other professional sports in the US in terms of popularity. Won't be surprised when the split happens, just don't think we should play any more "body bag games" for them once it does.

Rice made it on the list under its own merits.

Hey, you never answered us when I asked you out when all these lawsuits were supposed to happen to fight the Power Conference control of FBS...you remember when you said that a few weeks ago, right?

Nobody watches the PAC12, and nobody cares about a 1-1 CUSA team. So yeah, I can understand lumping us with UT@ and Texas State. As the article said, we all play each other to some extent, so it will shake out starting on Saturday.
