In reply to: Tiger69 's message, "Re: FCS Going to 12 Game Schedule starting in 2026" on 13:02:26 06/17/25 Tue
 I'm with Tiger69. College athletics have always been messy, starting in the 1870s and 1880s, when Yale and Princeton recruited big, strong students who may or may not have been the academic equivalents of the other students on campus. Oops, sorry. Our bad.

But now college sports are going someplace really dark. I mean, I'll still be on ESPN or in the stands, just as before, but let's all acknowledge what a s--tshow it will be.

I think it's really important that our football programs will now be participating in the FCS playoffs. Even if we play only seven league opponents and a couple of the usual non-conference suspects (Lehigh, Lafayette, Holy Cross), participating in the FCS playoffs will keep us relevant. We're not going to fade away as long as we win in the playoffs from time to time, and occasionally make a run.

The playoffs are critical and key to keeping us a viable Division I conference.
