      Are they just going to create an EPL? I can see that for the 40-or-so factory programs. But I'd prefer they just lift them out of college sports entirely and recognize them as the NFL professional AAA. Let actual students compete for bowl games and national titles. Keep the college labels but end the farce of enrolling the athletes. Speak the truth for the first time since about 1930.

        Those UMass comments are... something. You'd think the ADs would have major input in something like that but it sounds like the presidents met and just did it one day.

        I agree with the one that says in a 10-20 years we may not have conferences in the way we think of them now. I can definitely see a point where football and basketball are in the current conferences, but smaller sports like baseball, field hockey, tennis, all end up in more regional conferences.

        And I agree with the AD who says it's a travesty putting the rivalry games on MACtion days. They should be able to make the schedules so that the major rivalry games can be played on Saturdays and other conference games can go on weekdays.
        MAC Presidents see a fantastic educational institution in UMass and can't help themselves. It is likely the reason that Buffalo was added as well.

        The complaints have been often about having Central/Western on weekdays. November games are bad for attendance, but to sell that game away is just giving away all enthusiam for the program. There were promises made to protect some of the rivalry games from being on the weekdays every year, but it is still a big pain point for the contract.

          What's the rationale for the Ivy League not competing in the playoff?

          They compete for a title in every other sport. Some (or all?) have artificial caps that are lower than the NCAA cap for max games played, but they still let them fight for a championship.

            I'm still surprised UMass is joining full-time. I guess football really must rule everything, because they were committed to staying in the A10 for so long to the detriment of the football program.

            • Calling that offsides was 100% the wrong call. Calls get missed during a game in the middle of action because there's a lot to cover, but you have refs specifically in place to do nothing but to watch for offsides and they missed it. Also that that type of play is not reviewable is even more asinine.

                I believe UMass will make more in the MAC than the A10 in basketball, and their basketball program isn't what it used to be. Maybe UMass thinks that they can fix the football program and build up like NIU did and secure a American Conference bid to be with Temple again in 10-15 years. I don't see it, but who knows. Again I'd expect the seperation to happen with the NFL farm teams and the rest in that amount of time anyway.

                          The refs also missed that MN #0 touched the ball before it went 10 yards- which should have been Michigan ball on the MN44. AND they missed that MN 43 engaged with MI 17 before the ball went 10 yards- which would have put the ball at the MN45.

                          So Minnesota got a second chance because of a bad call when they should not have due to two missed calls.

                          Doesn't excuse the 4th quarter meltdown for Michigan, though. Or the INT that started it- which was both a bad pass to an open MI player AND a very missed read to an even more open MI player that would have scored had he gotten it. That being said, Orgi did improve from last week in the passing game. Not sure what the D will do now that a major weakness has been exposed, again.

                          And none of that helps the offensive line figure out how to more consistently block, especially for passing, nor does it help defensive depth. Little chance of making the playoffs, but it could be worse. Now for the NC game rematch- can they win in Seattle or not.
