Its crazy. Texas State also had an awesome season beating Baylor and winning a bowl game over Rice. They completely deserve an FBS spot. Idk where he got the 4 game statistic from.
Hawaii would drop football before moving to FCS. FCS has most of the expenses of FBS, but only a fraction of the revenue. The Big Sky cannot afford to take Hawaii, even for football only.
If hating was a D1 sport this guy would get a few offers, but he'd probably turn them down because they're not in a Power 5 conference and therefore "irrelevant"
At the time I wrote this post New Mexico State in 2023 was 9-3 in Conference USA, with a game remaining against Jacksonville St. And Conference USA Champoinship game against Liberty university. They had a signature against Auburn 31-10. So teams can eventually turn their programs.
I would give NM State a few years. Jerry Kill has a history of turning around small programs, plus his coordinators are from D2 powerhouse Pittsburg State, where Kill was once a coordinator.
Texas State was a FCS when they known as South West Texas State University. Texas State us the 5th largest university in the state of Texas with an unrollment of 38,000 students.
I remember when Southwest Texas State was NAIA (in a league with Texas A&I), then DII (also with A&I) when they won national championships. A&I is now A&M Kingsville, still DII, but I could see them moving to FCS to start a rivalry with the new UTRGV program.
I'm glad my school's team (San José State) has pulled themselves out of the doldrums in the past few years, or else they would also have been on this list!
@@lancetheb.m.c Half true, UMass was a football only member. The MAC wanted them to join in all sports but UMass didn’t want to downgrade to to MAC basketball as they are in the A10. Not a smart decision as UMass basketball is irrelevant right now, they could have been an a competitive basketball school in the MAC and they would be making more in FB.
They barely got to play thanks to Covid restrictions. They didnt play a full schedule, and they had to schedule teams to play on the fly. So, i would put an asterisk next to that season too!
I wish they had the same system like the Mexican Pro Soccer League, the two worst performing teams after a period of 3-4 years get kicked out to the lower league and the two best performing teams in the same time period get to move up. This motivates teams to try hard not to be terrible! This is a genius idea!
that is way too unstable. Teams moving up and down individual divisions is bad enough, so teams constantly moving up and down FBS and FCS divisions will be what kills college football, not realignment.
Actually, I have always thought the worst teams of the Big 10 should be relegated to the MAC, and the best there should be promoted. From overseas here, it just makes sense, but I understand it will never happen.
@depressedginger A few years ago, UMass was in the MAC for FB-only. The rest of their sports in the A-10. I believe the MAC said they needed to be all in or would have to leave the conference in FB. Do you think they should have stayed in the league? I don't know what the finances are, but do you think the A-10 with no FB gets more revenue than the MAC who has FB?
UTEP, UNM, and NMSU are a good AD away from being winners. All of them are good in basketball the should all be in the same confidence. UTEP is going to have that Hunt family NIL money starting to roll in, but they should drop UTEP as a name and become Texas Western again.
Name change would required TX legislation since they are part of the UT system. Stephen F Austin recently joined the UT system but by law had to keep their name.
Three historic schools........I would love to see them in the same conference. They should probably ALL be in the Mountain West........They would greatly benefit being together. Same old nonsense.......UNM doesn't wanna be in same conference as NMS.......Silly!...........I remember when Texas Western won it all on the court in 1966. Saw game on TV..........NMS made Final Four in early 70's........Coached by Lou Henson. Star players were Sam Lacy and Jimmy Collins.........Of course the HOF New York Jet.......Don Maynard went to Texas Western......I enjoy these schools........And I live in New York City area!!!!!!
that is so cool UTEP gets love in New York. I think the nba slam dunk contest should be named after David Lattin after getting the dunk banned for 10 years in the NCAA. UTEP was also good in the 80s with Tim Hardaway and Antonio Davis.
@@ReisterJP Big Daddy Dave Lattin, Bobby Joe Hill, Nevil Shead, etc......The immortal coach Don Haskins.......That game against Kentucky was at Cole Fieldhouse at U of Maryland. It was broadcast on delayed tape in NYC.........the semi final between Duke and Kentucky had also been broadcast.......Not the Texas Western/Utah semi.........A transcendent event! Of course, Pat Riley went on to coach the Knicks......One of the Miners I believe was from NYC.......maybe Willie Cager???? TINY ARCHIBALD....from NYC.........UTEP'S greatest as I recall!!!!!!
College football expert? The ACC has a prorata clause for new additions. ESPN is contractually obligated to pay. UL Monroe has been FBS for almost 30 years.
How about we just make it a full blown meritocracy and do promotion/relegation. Any system that keeps NDSU in the FCS, but allows UMASS to stay FBS obviously doesn’t work at all
I attended UMass when they moved up to FBS and not single person on campus could understand why.... We weren't good in FCS, and we've been pathetic in FBS. I remember going to one of the first FBS games and we never made it past the 50 yard line Hockey team is a a Frozen 4 competitor consistently, Basketball has ups and downs, made the tournament as a mid seed a few years ago
Texas St 8-5 with a bowl win UL Monroe has been a FBS school for decades and has wins over SEC schools NM State 10 win season and a win over Auburn Hawaii finished 8th out of 12 schools in the MW so the 4 schools below them should go to FCS also by your theories. Do better. But we honestly don't expect you will
No one should be "forced" to do anything. However, it would be for the betterment of their respective football programs if UMass, UConn, and others went down to I-AA.
Texas State was actually good this year. They had a win over Baylor, came like 2nd in their division, and played and won in their first ever bowl game against Rice.
UMass did win a national title in football in 1998, so they aren't a total waste of space, but they never should have upgraded. College football in the northeast is tough. You don't have really any powerhouse teams in the northeast. The majority play FCS and the ones that play FBS aren't very competitive.
Honestly, the University of Connecticut should’ve just taken advantage of Covid instead of having the one year football shut down ended the program permanently They have always been and will always be a basketball school. To think that the men’s basketball program is tied with duke in the number of men’s basketball, championships, and far and away, has the most for the women. Also, the women’s basketball coach is the highest paid state employee in the state of Connecticut the only state in the US where the women’s basketball coach is the highest paid state employee.
I feel I should mention UMass had an uptick in their hockey program recently and one the natty! But college hockey usually gets left in the dust, so...yeah
So I'm of the opinion that forcing people back down to FCS is not what needs to happen What likely needs to happen is going to happen is you're going to have tearing with inside of FPS that likely will be based on amount of available funding in order to make it somewhat Fair paid which means the top 40 260 teams will probably be in tier one those that don't fit would then fall into a second-tier whether it would be a third-tier or not I don't know
My vote would be UMASS, UCONN, Florida Int'l, ULM, Akron, Kent State, and Vandy move down to FCS. Jacksonville St. did well in 2023 in the inaugural FBS season in CUSA while Sam Houston (another CUSA team promoted to FBS) struggled last year. Then you have an incoming Kennesaw State team that has been struggling in FCS that is coming to CUSA in 2024 that I believe will continue to struggle while you also have a dominate Delaware team that is also coming to CUSA in 2025 that could make an impact in FBS.
UMass is whoring their football team out to P5 teams to get beat up in opening and homecoming games to support their athletic department. Being independent they can do it all season while most G5 teams only do it at the beginning of the season.
I don’t think anyone should be required to drop down a level. If the school want their athletic teams to compete on the FBS level and they’re willing to pay for it, they should be welcome to do it. Now, that said, the National Championship level schools should have a required budget of $X and so you 95 schools, eliminate conference alignments altogether, computerize schedules across the country, and have at it.
The Group of 5 needs to form their own division in college football and have their own playoffs each year sanctioned by the NCAA just like in the FCS Division II and Division III.
FBS : plays bowl games, big schools usually. FCS: plays a bracket, small schools usually. Although next season the college football playoff will get a 12-team playoff format
The Mid American conference is very historic Many old rivalries......None of these schools will ever leave....nor should they. This video is ridiculous. Those teams go up and down.......a few years good.....a few years bad. It doesn't matter if they are not great........The MAC is a different animal...........Love MACTION every November.......Super..........People should educate themselves on the history of these schools. Many go back to the dawn of college football.........
All of that is true. But let’s be real, it would take an act of God for a MAC team to even get a sniff at a New Years 6 bowl, much less make the College Football Playoff. That should be the bigger argument that should be made as far as new official tiers of college football.
Can I get a MAC/Sun Belt challenge every year, maybe around Week 2 or 3? The Sun Belt has 14 schools and the MAC has 12, I think, but just play 12 games in all time slots on all the deep ESPNs and ESPN Plus. I'd absolutely watch this; I'd mark it on my calendar, in fact.
Sorry but no. As a current university of Akron student. They absolutely NEED to go to FCS. Akron is unbearable to watch. They nearly lost to Morgan State this year. They haven’t been even remotely competitive against other MAC competition for years.
Unfortunately most of these teams are being carried elsewhere. New Mexico has a pretty good baseball team so there’s no reason they’d move down, same goes for Texas State(if Texas State wasn’t in the Sunbelt then 90% of the time it would be a given that Louisiana would win the softball/baseball conference every year, there are other good teams they just aren’t consistent enough every year). There’s many other sports that go into determining what schools stay and go but most of the sunbelt ones.
I'm waiting for a G5 school to show up with a check when the new division is formed at the top and you have a minimum budget. They have gotten some wealthy donor or they contact the Saudi's and just plain buy their way in.
Umass, definitely! And I don't want any more FCS teams moving to the FBS no matter how good they are. Too many teams have left the FCS and there are too many silly FBS bowl games.
There are way too many schools in the FBS. Instead of expanding, the FBS should be shrinking. I mean come on, does anyone honestly believe Vanderbilt or Purdue will ever make a 12 team playoff?
… bro New Mexico St went 10-4 and even killed Auburn. So you said they went 7-6(wrong) and because the school has a scandal you say demote them to FCS… what lol? Texas St also balled this past season going 8-5 and beat Baylor. Right now for the last few years the top FCS programs have been moving up to FBS. In CFB lot of teams have bad stretches but randomly can become good again. That’s what makes CFB fun with Cinderella stories or miracle comebacks.
Akron was having some success when Bowden was the HC and then they fired him, and they have been terrible ever since. They probably should downgrade to FCS.
Спорт
New Mexico State went 10-4 this year. They definitely improved
I like New Mexico State and I think that they have a good coach
Texas State boomed too
They could join the mountain west conference. Besides their state rival, the University of New Mexico plays for the mountain west conference.
Depressed ginger is not in college football expert. The amount of information he gets wrong in this video alone is staggering.

At least New Mexico State won a bowl game last season.
Imagine thinking UL Monroe just moved up. They’ve been in FBS for decades now
They moved up so long ago, it was known as "Division I-A".
Before FCS accepts any team moving down, the teams need to put up $5 million just like teams wanting to move up have to!
What a difference a month makes now TxsT has a win over Baylor and is being discussed as a replacement for SMU in the AAC
Texas state won 8 games and bowl game & New Mexico State mage it to a bowl game. You motivated them 😮
