must want a playoff of nothing but rematches of regular-season games.


You are still defending this nonsense AFTER the terrible games yesterday? This included a rematch of the 45-10 Tulane ole miss game

This could easily be done by salary floor. Almost every G5 school is under $70 million athletic department.

Make FBS be the P4 conferences + any team over $80 million athletic department who desires to opt in. By opting in they are ineligible for the G5.

3 tournament playoffs for ESPN to pitch:
1. FBS (expand to 24 teams).
2. G5 (24 teams)
3. FCS (24 teams)

Make a cash prize be 10% of your budget. 5% for your runner up.

The bowls can die or sponsor a level of playoff game in each.

Only tenable solution


Not the only tenable solution.

Could also just make G5 conferences compete for FCS championship like all the other lower tier D1 schools do.

How’d the Sunbelt/AAC/C-USA get into FBS anyway?
