I remember somebody sharing an audio clip of AD Mario predicting this game would get scheduled. He also went on to say NMSU would like to stay in the WAC if an FBS conference could be forged, and that Tarleton has openly expressed its FBS intentions. If Tarleton beats NMSU at home, or even if its a close game, we know that we now have two FBS-caliber teams in the WAC. Question then becomes, who are the other six? I'm afraid Dixie St. is in for a rude awakening when they tangle with Tarleton twice this Spring.

Why “the other six”? Has the minimum been changed to 8?

I believe the reference is six more for FBS, for which the minimum is 8, while the minimum for FCS is 6.
