    It’s early, but I will say the expectations placed on SMU coming off a lifetime of G5 league play was ridiculous. I’ve seen them picked 5th or higher which stuns me. They will get better, but it may take years to get acclimated. Hope for 6-6 and a bowl entry.

    Well the "whole 9 yards" not making football sense is because it's not from football.
    9 yards was the length of the.50 cal ammo belts on WWII fighter planes, so if you shot at the enemy till you had no ammo left you let them have the whole 9 yards.

      Yes. All the idiots of the ACC proclaimed that SMU was a great add and would be 9-3 to 10-2 in their first season in the ACC because having a “great” team and ACC schedule navigable and the ACC is weak and winnable; which several of these are true. The ACC is the weakest of the A4 in football and is weaker than probably 1-2 G5/Non-A4 conferences. SMU will lose to BYU, TCU, FSU, Lou, and probably either Duke or Cal or both. But all the nonsense that the Ponies of SMU are going to be better than the rest of the ACC and better than the four G5 (BYU pagans were G5 before joining the Big12 last year and truth) schools that the Big12 added that had earned the right to move up were ludicrous and utter rubbish comments and prognostications. ACC would have been better off adding a Memphis or CCU or the other two last members of the PAC than agreeing on adding SMU. By the way Rice and Miami-Ohio were good to great teams last season and season before that and are historical rivals for Houston and Cincinnati and shows how little you know about football and sports overall given your propensity to spout off inaccurate statistics and such. Nevada has been bad for awhile “Boy”, and maybe you should change your approach to this and come at this with a different approach that would suit your view and false equivalence narratives. Nevada is an inferior football team no matter if SMU was in the AAC or ACC or even the almighty SEC. Nevada and New Mexico and two other MWC schools were predicted and expected to win no more than 3 games a piece this season if that many for a reason. I said SMU will go either 5-7 or 7-5 but no worse than 4-8 and no better than 8-4. Nevada looks like the school that had joined an Autonomous League not SMU in that contest last night. Florida State losing to a conference opponent in a conference game on a neutral field to a bowl winning team is no shame in that contrary to what many pundits say. But SMU losing for 3 quarters and 3/4 of the 4th quarter to a vastly inferior team in Nevada is unacceptable. Rhett Lashlee and his staff and players talked too much this offseason. If UNC loses to a bad Minnesota, which could happen, and other marquee non conference games where the ACC teams are heavily favored; then the ACC will be getting 1 team and one team only in the playoffs because so weak.

    UConn has the New York/New England TV market (enormous), the best basketball, very good baseball, soccer, etc. The football program won two Big East power conference championships in ten years and frequently had sell outs (40K). And they’d be the top academic school in the Big 12 per US News. UConn has a lot to offer.

    Yes and no. GT is an ACC member and did go to a bowl game and win again. So it’s not a bad thing that GT upset FLASt. SMU looking like absolute garbage for 3 full quarters and 1/2 of the 4th almost is a bad look for the ACC. But I will also say that the MWC squandering victories like they did and Hawaii late last night won by three touchdowns but didn’t look like that for about 3 quarters and what I expect this upcoming weekend and weekend 3 but week 2 of college football (call it what it is folks and stop this week zero or week 12.5 later on in early to mid November and count correctly damn it!); I could see MWC being more overconfident and overrated than even west coast teams think about themselves by the media.
    But I don’t want to start seeing top G5/6 schools dodging each other or avoiding top teams in any other conference just to have a fictitious solid record. I am not saying UTSA or Boise shouldn’t schedule an Akron or LaTech or Colorado St or ULM or Temple in non conference games. I don’t want them to schedule one decent to top notch A4 team and rest being bottom G5 or one mid level to bottom level FCS school.
    Every conference and especially the Non Autonomy conferences need to address the non conference slate similar to how the AAC has done so previously and hopefully will continue to do so. No Autonomy schools should be playing FCS schools but the Non Autonomy can and should but needs to be done within the first 5-6 weeks of the season and I am counting week-0 as week-1 for common sense purposes and rational reasoning for goodness sake. This would mean all A4 schools and including Notre Dame would play no less than two to three Non Autonomy schools in non conference schedules, depending upon having 3-4-5 non conference games.
    I say kind of combine what the MWC is doing this year and possibly next season and what the AAC has always done for the past few years in non conference games. But make all conferences play 7 not 8 or 9 conference games and all play two A4 teams from two different A4 conferences and only the G5/6 get to play FCS schools and all done by first weekend in October against FCS teams and nothing but FBS teams for rest of the season. No division play but pods possible and A4 schools have to play at least 2 A4 teams in non conference games and two to three Non Autonomy schools in non conference games.
    The Non Autonomy get two A4 teams minimum and two Non Autonomy schools minimum and only one FCS school in non conference games if the Non Autonomy teams want to schedule a FCS team to play. This would make at least the Conferences somewhat competitive equally and would make analysis easier for which teams and which conferences are stronger and better than others and deserve and earn a playoff spot or certain conferences getting multiple teams in the playoffs as would eliminate the subjective opinion and conjecture and actually have objective measurements and results to go by. But this makes too much sense and maybe too much money and intrigue evenly distributed among all D1 teams and therefore would not happen because it would solve the bickering.
