Now that we have hit some stable waters and Britton Banowsky has indicated C-USA will stand pat, how do you see the divisions forming?

Here's my best guess on how this will play out in football

2014 C-USA Football (13 teams)

EAST (6)

Marshall

Old Dominion

Florida Atlantic

Florida International

Middle Tennessee

Western Kentucky

WEST (7)

Rice

Southern Miss

UAB

North Texas

La. Tech

UTSA

UTEP

2015 C-USA (14 teams)

EAST

Marshall

Old Dominion

Florida Atlantic

Florida International

Charlotte* (not eligible for conference play until 2015)

Middle Tennessee

Western Kentucky

WEST

Rice

Southern Miss

UAB

North Texas

La. Tech

UTSA

UTEP

I think UAB will move to the west in 2014 since they will want to start learning the teams and travel routines for when Charlotte comes on board in 2015. 2014 could be a tricky year for scheduling though since it will be an odd number (13)

So in 2015 we can start looking forward to divisional trips to Houston, San Antonio, El Paso, Ruston/Shreveport, Hattiesburg and Birmingham. I would assume that we would continue to play two crossover games to allow for three non-conference opponents (1 money; 2 winnable).

In comparison, the belt offered up a conference slate consisting of Murfeesboro, Jonesboro, Bowling Green, Mobile, Boca Raton, Miami, Lafayette, Monroe and Troy.

Anyone have any other ideas on how they will split divisions?

      Caponi fired

      I understand that his decisions to go for it on 4th down so much or not to kick FGs or play the field position game are bad decisions. Just playing Devil's advocate. Could it be that those decisions stem from a lack of confidence in the defense? It feels like he believes he has to score TDs on every possession to win because the defense will not stop anyone. So, that takes me back to he should have never kept Caponi after year one.

      Ladies at ACU

      I went to the game, again we started slow and accelerated in the second quarter outscoring ACU 27-12. We let them back in it and the lead got down to three points twice. But we went on a game-sealing 11-0 run to take a 66-52 lead as Lampkin took over. One of ACU's starting bigs went out late with an apparent back injury. She's from Bixby, Oklahoma, which is where I've gotten my only speeding ticket, so maybe she deserved it. As for the arena, it shares the same name as SMU's (Moody Coliseum) and looks like a carbon copy of TCU's (albeit half the size). Recently renovated and very nice. The ACU men hosted TXST shortly after. Which we could get some better men's/women's doubleheaders and on the weekend to help boost the ladies' attendance.

      Next week's ECU game is our last chance this season to sellout DATCU Stadium

      Will Caponi and the dunk tank make one last appearance at DATCU this weekend?

      Team transportation to San Antonio

      Any word on if Caponi had to drive back to DFW?
