C-USA Championship Game
ETSU @ Jacksonville State on 9/2. That’s good news with Liberty canceling ETSU for 2023.
Why does C-USA need a championship game with only 9 teams in the league?
It’s not like one of their schools needs the extra game to increase SOS to have a shot at the playoffs.
I guess they just want/need the tv money.
Evan,
Dittos to your Q. & your Statements.
I didn’t get to watch the Texas Roadrunners play the Troy Uni.Trojans in their ranked VS ranked Exhibition.
Did You?
If Yes,
was it a close Game until the last Minute? or a boring blowout?
If No,
I have 7 Months to watch the replay on YouTube.
With my proposal for Boise State, Memphis, SMU, South Florida, Temple and Tulane to join the Big 12 in 2025, FIU and Middle Tennessee would be off to the American, and Austin Peay, Central Arkansas, McNeese, and North Alabama would join C-USA.
Then these would be the Thanksgiving weekend games:
Austin Peay-Western Kentucky
Central Arkansas-Sam Houston
Jacksonville State-North Alabama
Kennesaw State-Liberty
Louisiana Tech-McNeese
New Mexico State-UTEP
Eh, I don’t think the Big 12 would take them all.
USF missed their opportunity, and while Temple and Tulane have had some good years in the past, they haven’t been good on a consistent basis historically.
Boise, Memphis, and SMU all have cases, but it’s up to the Big 12 to decide if they add value to the conference or not.
Looks like Conference-USA is fully joining the Sun Belt and MAC in the midweek action. Need a fun nickname for it like the midweek MACtion has.
