I'd kick Charlotte to the curb again if I were in that situation.

RE: The Sunbelt is going crazy discussing if UAB drops football...
Pump the brakes on GS.
They may make it to 10-2 without a single victory over a team with a winning record.
USA 5-4(Texas State, @South Carolina, Navy)
App State 4-5(@stAte, @Cajuns, Idaho)
Texas State 5-4(@USA, stAte, @GSU)
App looks like 5-7. Doubtful that USA and Texas State both get to 7 wins, possible that neither of them do.

Or we could invite ECU back so Marshall could beat on them some more.

45-0
May you never forget.
May you never forget that we own you guys overall. We one like 6 in a row over you guys before you finally won a couple.

This is my thinking as well. C-USA jumped the gun going to 14 (given the CFP payout maxing out at 12).
South Alabama is a fine school and conference mate but there's really no G5 nor FCS who could move the $$$ needle that much.

Hopefully UAB stays.
CUSA good at 14 with them and 13 without them.

RE: The Sunbelt is going crazy discussing if UAB drops football...
Another thing that comes to mind is that IF (WHICH I DON"T WAN'T) UAB does drop football, that would leave CUSA without an Alabama school as well as the state of Georgia. Granted we haven't had a team in Georgia but that would be odd to be a conference with a footprint in the south/southeast/east and without a team in both of those states

RE: The Sunbelt is going crazy discussing if UAB drops football...
This thread is going crazy over the Sunbelt going crazy.
UAB will not lose football.
Just for fun though, I would choose Real GSU. They bring the all-u-can-eat buffet market. And those fans are brand loyal.

It's only 6 pages if you don't set your posts per page to 100. Then it's less than one page :)
That's just in cases some people didn't know you could do that. I hate flipping through pages on a thread that blows up fast before I got a chance to read it.

A thing we started when MTSU left for CUSA. We're working to make our fans watch all Sun Belt games and not just our teams games.
I don't watch P5 games out of principle anyway, so it wasn't that hard.

Haha... It's good to have grounded expectations of your team, and I guess not watching P5 games will help with that.
