Demise of CUSA

[BleedGreen64]

The Sunbelt quality is rising each year and if WKU comes in next year it will only make thans better.

When the Big East expands to 12 they will take in Memphis, CFU (travelling partner for F. FLa.), Marshall (if not blackballed by W. VA) and E. Carolina.

The SBC needs to be talking to So. MS., UAB, and Houston to set us up at 12.

UTEP can join TCU in the MWC, while SMU. Tulsa and Rice go back to the WAC (LaTech would appreciate that).

The SBC just needs to keep improving, quit playinf the 1AA schools and win more OOC games especially against non BCS schools.

NT has lost to 3 conference champs and defeated SMU who beat Arkansas State eho defeated Army who took A&M downto the wire before beating Baylor (both on the road). Our schedule does not get any harder and our young team is getting better each week and we only lose a handful of starters for next year.

You need to quit drinking the green KOOL-AID!!!!

5 teams give up more than 40 points. The conference won only 1 game, against a 1-AA team.

Did you note the scores and records of the other non BCS conferences for this season including how theyhave faired against 1AA, non BCS, and BCS teams?

This is a joke, right?

If you were at USM, UAB, or UofH would you consider joining the SBC?

I didn't think so.

Is NC A&T an all black university?

[El Paso Eagle]

Let's see if the Big East does expand it will probably only take 2 teams from current C-USA and then probably Navy and Army. Even if they take 4 C-USA teams there would be a line of schools ready to say yes to a move to C-USA in a heartbeat (UNT, Troy, L-Tech, the Florida Schools, MAC schools??). What this might cause is a merger between the Belt and the WAC.

[BleedGreen64]

The WAC is not a good option. This is why we need to "work" the desirable CUSA schools and take them in rather than lump us in with the leftover wannabes.

[eulesseagle]

If the B.E. does take some schools such as Memphis and whoever else they will not go after any of the current CUSA schools in Texas.....

Ultimately, this would make a CUSA alignment good for UNT and possibly LaTech and a long shot of UTEP.

Until the next conference shake up happens just sit tight and ride out the "wild side" of UNT football........and Basketball.
