College Football landscape: good for G5 bad for FCS
“In the whole new grand scheme of the college football playoff, you’ve gotto have quality wins and in high-resource conferences you either buy the more you go play them home-and-home,” Mohajir said. “That’s going to be a huge factor in the rankings.”

That is because they are talking about the 'quality' of the football program, not 'quantity' of students.
Many FBS programs are at schools with less than 15K students.

If those numbers are accurate, the only ones the TRULY surprised me are ULM & Louisiana Tech.
I thought they had many many more students than that.
Other than that, you basically have a list of the private universities (which, to me, at least) makes sense.

RE: College Football landscape: good for G5 bad for FCS
Doesn't The Economics change starting next year have this effect.
The G5 get a little profit ? If they follow the P5 initiatives.
The P5 get ten million more per year to buy money games.
I do think FBS becomes a no brainer for the Montana and Delaware type of programs. How they get there is a little more difficult .
The P5 schools that are breaking even will easily afford to buy future games.
The gap from G5 to FCS is a little wider . The gap between P5 and G5 is has become huge like thirty million a year plus . That is without selling a ticket or having 7 or 8 home games.

The competitive gap between P5 and G5 will not unless they change the # of scholarships offered. G5's don't sign that many players that P5's offer, and some players will still pick a successful G5, or local G5, over many P5's.
The competitive gap between FCS and FBS will change considerably, if all the FBS Conferences increase their finical aid to their student athletes, and stop playing FCS. Both those things are very likely going to happen.

P5 and G5 gap isn't really widening. It will stay about the same. Schools will offer the same benefits, P5 schools will have more TV revenue to allow them to spend more money on their football program...which they've always had.
G5 to FCS gap though will be gigantic.
Point that is being made is that while Alabama gets a huge advantage out of the new playoff deal, schools like Utah, Indiana, and Purdue do not. Those schools will have to spend far more of that cash to pay the bills, and will end up being forced to travel to G5 schools for games because they wont be able to afford the crazy amount of money needed for a guarantee.
FCS schools meanwhile, get left in the dust.

I agree that the FCS is going to get left in the dust. But what is really amazing is the amount of money being thrown around at the FBS level among P5 schools. This year the Big Ten will spend over $22 million on payouts for nonconference games. Ten of the fourteen Big Ten schools will spend at least $800,000 on a guaranteed nonconference home game. Texas State is getting $860,000 from the Illini for their road game. Utah is getting $1 million plus a return game in 2015 for their game at Michigan. There is just no reason for an FBS school to return to FCS.

That's what numbers are going to start looking like. 1.7 plus to get an AAC or MWC school, 1.3 plus to get a good SBC, MAC, CUSA school, 1 million to get lower tier G5 schools.
The schools that will really win at the G5 level will be the ones who can legitimately help a P5's SOS. Those will be the ones that will get gigantic guarantees and the chance for Home and Home deals.
