who will bust the playoff this season, /cfb/?

which conferences will be left out?

>>76534443
USF is the early favorite.

As long as USF doesn't lose to Temple, they can ride the hype train all the way to CFP station.

I just hope the committee sees through the memes.

>Boise State
An undefeated MW schedule with wins over ranked Wazzu and SDSU could put them in the conversation

>Troy
Decent OOC (LSU, Boise) but the Sun Belt schedule puts them at a disadvantage over MW and AAC schools

>WKU
OOC too weak, CUSA too weak to make up for it

>Memphis
Weak OOC

>Houston
Weak OOC (Arizona + Texas Tech)

>Colorado State
By far the strongest OOC of the bunch: Alabama, Colorado, and Oregon State. An undefeated season would put them squarely in the playoff.

>App State
App's strength of schedule hangs on how good Georgia and Wake Forest actually are in 2017. Both were bowl winners in 2016, but unless they return to form, an undefeated Sun Belt slate might not be enough to put the Mountaineers in the playoff conversation.

>USF
With only one P5 matchup in 2017, against Illinois, USF cannot expect much of a boost in the rankings. Even with an undefeated season, they'd need to win every AAC game convincingly to be a playoff team.

>Tulsa
A week-1 win against Oklahoma State could put Tulsa at the top of the Week 1 G5 rankings and boost them into the top 25 for the rest of the season. If an undefeated Tulsa meets an undefeated USF in November, the playoffs could be on the line.

>Toledo
Putting together a playoff resume in the MAC is hard. While Toledo might be the MAC's best hope in 2017, they have only one opportunity to impress against a P5, when they play the Miami Hurricanes.

>San Diego State
Week 2 (Arizona State) and Week 3 (Stanford) will be make or break for SDSU's playoff hopes. If they can win those, they have to handle Boise State to prove they're playoff worthy.

>>76535589
yeah right now I'd rank realistic PLAYOFF shots (likelihood of going UNDEFEATED plus strength of schedule good enough to get you into the playoff) as:

>1. Boise State
>2. Colorado State
>3. USF
>4. App State
>5. SDSU
>6. Troy
>7. Tulsa
The rest have pipe dreams for the playoff

If every FBS conference's mascots teamed up and fought each other, which conference would win?

I'm going with either the ACC (Hurricane) or AAC (Golden Hurricane)

Meh. I meant B1G but whatever, that graphic I was replying to was at least as wrong.

>>76534443
Having no professional Vegas experience, I think the general consensus is:
MW/AAC = Even
CUSA = 8 to 1
MAC = 10 to 1
SBC = 50 to 1

I like USF, but Troy was playing out of their minds last year and retained their entire coaching staff. Boise/SDSU/Wyoming have decent shots too, and let's not forget La Tech (great every year) and UTSA (best recruiting in the state).

Are they moving forward with these plans?

>>76536616
>great program
>good boosters

Yes they do. However, they're uber-religious wackjobs and won't schedule post-season events on Sundays, so they're fucked until they join the 21st century with the rest of us.

>>76536729
>no post-season events on Sundays

That wouldn't affect BYU football. Just join for football only.

>>76536688
Yes. It opens this fall.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorado_State_Stadium

>>76536786
Yes but we live in the future, football-only schools are a relic of the past (unless you're a service academy or Notre Dame).

>>76536838
I think BYU has a bit of that Notre Dame vibe to them.

If BYU rattles off several more 10+ win seasons soon, you can bet they'll get more looks from the Big XII.

>>76536923
>West Virginia and Utah in the Big 12 footprint
Pick one and only one, my friend.

>>76536969
WVU is ACC bound.

>>76536998
Fake news.

>>76536688
>>76536814
When CUSA went through the first round of expansion back in 2005, UNT was on the shortlist but didn't make it because their stadium was 60 years old and the athletic budget was for shit. So the conference went with UTEP (KEK) instead.

Thanks to a new Uni Pres, more money was invested, funding for a new stadium secured, and UNT was added to CUSA in 2013. Investment absolutely matters, and I have a theory that even though the Big 12 didn't pick anyone last year, they told select schools "this is what you need to do to get picked."

I'm not for sure on that, because a conference with schools in both WV and CO makes no sense, but then again when did the Big 12 ever make a sensible decision.

>>76536998
>>76537010
West Virginia would be a much better fit with the ACC, SEC, or B1G than they are with the Big XII.

Those other conferences are also way more stable than the Big XII, due to not having Texas as a member.

>>76537036
That would be true, except for the part where WV is basically still a mid-major. Even TCU has stepped up their game while the Mountaineers continue to tread water.

>>76537051
No, I just can't spell.

>>76537254
In 2017?

A&M + UT at the top, TCU in 3rd, Baylor/Houston next, Tech, then UTSA, then the rest of the mid-majors who don't really matter. Texas State dead last, obv.

>>76537855
WVU would dominate the Coastal division of the ACC.

>>76538068
I don't even know where this meme came from, they were the 4th best team in the old Big East before the 3 teams over them were taken by the ACC. They became the "best" by default. And they haven't improved, like, at all, they just have Big 12 competition, which isn't really much better than the old Big East.

>>76536998
>>76537036

The ACC doesn't want WVU. Hell, the Big XII didn't even really WANT them either, the conference was just desperate to get back up to 10 schools during an emergency and made a questionable decision in adding WVU.

WVU's only chance is for the ACC to decide on a 9 game conference slate, Notre Dame commits to football membership, and the ACC decides it HAS to have balanced divisions (but it really doesn't).

WVU is the Brock Osweiler of the Big 12. We only have to hope some other conference is dumb enough to take them off our hands.

>>76540659
I'd rather the ACC pick up UConn though. Good academics, good basketball, actually on the Atlantic Ocean, and arguably the most popular team in NYC. Would make for some very fun BC-SU-UConn-Pitt games.

>>76541551

1. A G5 team makes it into the CFP championship game

2. C-USA and SBC combine into a super conference, or at least re-align regionally.

3. The AAC gets a better media deal after expanding and gobbling up all the best mid-major programs in the country.

>>76542577

The ACC already has enough yankee teams. The next expansion teams need to give it back some of the southern charm it used to have.

Also, UConn football is, has been, and always will be terrible. They probably should have stayed at the FCS level. They'd be perennial bottom dwellers in the ACC--basically what Rutgers is to the Big 10.

>>76536923
BYU has been rattling off 10+ win seasons for decades now...

>>76542633
Well they can't actually be worse than Rutgers. At least UConn is considered second-tier basketball blue blood.

And yeah, I get what you're saying. But WVU doesn't fit the ACC mindset. You could argue Louisville doesn't either but Louisville has a HUGE market to sell to. What does WVU have? What does WVU bring to the table? In fact, WVU being in the ACC probably makes recruiting harder for Pitt, VaTech, UVA, Louisville, and Notre Dame in the surrounding states. There are very few reasons the ACC would want WVU.

>CUSA and SBC combine

Who the fuck started this meme, why not combine AAC and CUSA instead, or the B1G and SEC while you're at it.

>>76542633
>next expansion

The ACC has 14 goddamn teams, no conference should be any larger or they'll collapse under their own weight (WAC, Big East).

>>76543158

I feel like C-USA and SBC have a closer level of play than AAC and C-USA; not completely (Tulane is pretty bad), but for the most part.

>>76543218

Fair point, but conferences seem to follow the money, not logic. If the money points to expanding again, we'll see a 16 team ACC.

>>76546584
>I feel like C-USA and SBC have a closer level of play than AAC and C-USA; not completely (Tulane is pretty bad), but for the most part.
In 2016, yes. Not over time. Why can nobody here see past the short-term? Which reminds me:

>Fair point, but conferences seem to follow the money, not logic. If the money points to expanding again, we'll see a 16 team ACC.
Yes, that's more money short-term. Long-term, the bottom teams have less chance of winning anything, of national recognition, and become a joke. Like six Vandies. They'll want out. See also: WAC, Big East.

Wvu belongs in the acc. All of our former rivals (miami, virginia tech, pitt) plus were actually good in both football and basketball.

>>76551409
Also, the meme that WVU has a small market is a lie. The entire statae minus huntington id devoted to WVU, plus many of the people that moved out of the state now live in areas like North Carolina, virginia, pennsylvania and tennessee.

>>76551209
They're G5 so they're fluid; it's unlikely they're planning to leave the conference because SBC just kicked two other teams out. Going from 12 teams to 10 to 9 and then seeking a replacement doesn't make much sense.

But then again, when did the G5 make sense.

>>76551409
>WVU belongs in the ACC because we used to share a conference with them.
Has it occurred to you they moved to get the fuck away from you.

>>76551439

I didn't say WV didn't have out-of-state fans. You're the one who introduced "small market." Market refers to the TV market, that is entirely different from a fanbase. What do words mean.

>everyone hates WV
I'm sorry you took me literally, so let's try again: The teams what left the BE for ACC are elite. WV is not elite. WV will never be elite. You're a mid-major who got lucky because the Big 12 was desperate. When the Big 12 explodes, you can enjoy your time in the AAC where you belong.

The SBC and CUSA are virtually equals.

When you consider that CUSA is adding back UAB, who will probably go winless this season, and the Sun Belt is adding Coastal Carolina, one of the best FCS programs last season, it tips even more in favor of the Belt.

I disagree with the premise that ODU is "good." They had a weak schedule, and the two times they played quality competition (App State but also divisional CUSA leader WKU), the upstart Monarchs got BTFO.

>>76569353
A full scholarship FBS program that hasn't played a game in multiple years.

Don't get me wrong: I'm glad UAB is back from the dead but let's not pretend they'll be leaving the basement of FBS anytime soon.

(keeping in mind that none of you will predict G5 correctly).

>>76573055
Doesn't matter, only the SEC and B1G matter anyway.

>>76572918
Can you read?

Not only do the two conferences have the same distribution of good and bad teams (here: >>76568974), and are even head-to-head, but others have pointed out that one of C-USA's 3 "good" teams (ODU) was obliterated by a Sun Belt team with the same record.

>tldr:
There isn't any proof that the current-day C-USA is better than the SBC. They're effectively the same: tied for 3rd best G5.

>>76573507
ODU is not one of CUSA's good teams, they had an easy schedule last year and their record was inflated. WKU crushed them, as WKU would destroy any Sun Belt team. The top of that conference is better than the top of the Belt, and that gap will grow further this year. CUSA has more money and resources, so it's not even a question. The entire argument for this case is hung exclusively on App State and last years unusually good Troy team. Meanwhile CUSA is killing it with WKU, Louisiana Tech, Middle Tennessee, and they just hired Butch Davis and Lane Kiffin.

The quality of teams within a given conference are not a constant. Marshall proved that last year, when a team that competes for the conference title every year didn't even go to a bowl.

MT is still on the up and up, yes. But La Tech isn't the only other power. That conference is loading up in a way the Sun Belt just can't keep up with. UTSA + FAU + UNT + FIU will need to be watched, USM and Marshall may have just been having down years and could come roaring back.

Shit is lit, famalam.
