Apologies if this speculation on a 14-team college football playoff model has already been broached. Basically it drops the G5’s inclusion from one in 12 to one in 14. https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/college-football-playoff-mulling-14-team-model-with-varied-automatic-bids-for-big-t...

The 2 pac are going to play 6 games with the mountain west in the way notre dame uses the ACC. I would have to assume they would get the nod in cereal polls over other G5 as the mountain west is a solid conference most years. But they are not eligible for an auto bid. Correct. Until they join a con...

If you don't get it at this point then you just aren't going to get it. They will do whatever it takes to keep the mo ey at the top. When and if they can they will keep any and all G5 out and yes, I'd wager many years that will be the case. The 5+7 model will still guarantee 1 G5 spot every year. B...

Sorry for what is probably a basic question but who is in charge of the playoffs going forward? Who will decide the format of teams? In other words what will keep the powers that be from just changing the format to require any G5 to earn a high enough ranking (like Cincinnati did) in order to quali...

If a player enters the TP before the bowl I’m not sure I’d take them to the bowl game. Maybe a grad transfer. I'm clearly not a college football coach, but if I were, once that player hits the portal, clean out your locker and don't let the door hit you on the way out. Easy to say, but remember tha...

Great win for App. I think this is why it's important to wait through a whole season's results. I said at beginning of season we needed to see some improvement from the team under Shawn. Not long ago, it looked like it was gonna be another step back. Four games later, we have already exceeded last y...

They both never missed a bowl or got absolutely blown out in a bowl either. Or even lost a bowl. We can play this game all day. Louisville sucked and now they are good. Cincinnati was good and now they suck. Dink is 17-19 last 4 years. Why are they in this conversation? Drink was 17-19 his first th...

We finished 4-8 in 2013 in our first transition year.

And we started off 1-5 in 2014 but closed out strong and finished 7-5.

I posted this in another thread, but I'm going to put it out in front of all the eyeballs on The Cabin: 1. I would say that we have been the Top G5 program and set the standard over the last 8 seasons. (some schools have had bigger Flash seasons with an NY6 game or rankings) 2. If we are trending t...

This is the Job that Shawn Clark has spent his entire life learning to do since App lost to Boise State. He wants App to win just as much as anyone who has ever posted anything on this board, probably more. (John Candy) "It's a fair question. It's quite simple, really. I had to win. You see, Derice...

First: our students (absent some of the profanity) really show up for games. Second: on a work night thousands of us traveled from Piedmont cities to the game The home side looked about 80% filled but Miller Hill was jammed. It was an impressive sight for a Tuesday night. Few if any great programs ...

I will offer a possible suggestion. Give SC a one year extension which takes the recruiting issue off the table temporarily. We can then see if 2024 is “the year” as some have promised. With understanding that we must win 9 games or the contract is discontinued with no buy-out. We save 1 mil, & we ...

Clark has 2 wins against top-25 ranked teams ('21 Coastal, '22 TAMU). Satt didn't beat any ranked teams, neither did Drink. Neither Satt nor drink has an L to Texas state either. Also, multiple losses to Coastal and Louisiana. They both never missed a bowl or got absolutely blown out in a bowl eith...

OK 69 in all your brilliance see if you can figure out the numbers below - Let's see - I have been on this board almost 12 YEARS more than you Let's see - I have more than 10,000+ posts than you Let's see - I have thanked other APP posters on this board 5,557 more times than you Possibly you should...

2017 comes to mind. We had a pretty good season but lost to Umass and ULM and barely beat Idaho. All teams we probably should have beaten easily. We just had two back to back long road trips and we were able to overcome 4 turnovers and get a much needed win. I’m very happy we got a W. Seems a lot o...

Saw this on ESPN this morning. If we had not lost to Wyoming, do we make this list at 3-1 with our lone loss being to UNC? Untitled.png Doubt it. JMU/Marshall aren't even on here. Probably would have to be 4-0 to make the list as it stands. JMU won't be on here even if they win every game as they a...

Dodd accomplished what he set out to do, get clicks. I can’t imagine Aresco is going to change course on his markets and high budget strategy for the AAC. I’d imagine ODU, GaSt and TXST would get the nod from the SBC before App based on the AAC’s previous selections. As someone else stated, ECU is ...
