ASU will be ineligble for an FCS playoff this year and not bowl eligible until 2015. Thus we are in limbo for 2013 and 2014.

"Appalachian State and Georgia Southern will make the transition from the FCS to the FBS and join the Sun Belt Conference in 2015, sources told ESPN.

The two schools will be ineligible for the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) playoffs in 2013. After completing their transition to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS), they will be eligible for the Sun Belt football championship and bowl games in 2015, sources said.

An official announcement is expected this week, and both schools will be full-fledged Sun Belt members in all other sports in 2014, sources said.

The addition of Appalachian State and Georgia Southern will give the Sun Belt 10 football members in 2015 -- Arkansas State, Georgia State, Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisiana-Monroe, South Alabama, Texas State, Troy and Western Kentucky.

The Sun Belt will have a 12-member basketball league with those 10 schools plus Arkansas-Little Rock and Texas-Arlington.

Since North Texas, Florida Atlantic and Middle Tennessee announced they were leaving for Conference USA, Appalachian State and Georgia Southern have been targeted by the Sun Belt"..............

We will be eligible to play in the 2014 inaugural Championship game, so we could have a post season game in 14.

A game between the SBC East champion and the SBC West champion at the home stadium of the team with the best record.
