Folks, you cannot create a P6 conference with G5 parts.

It’s 2017. You can make a girl with guy parts. So why not?

All we need to do is self-identify as P5 then cry discrimination/outrage if

Yep, call it a P5 safespace.

Really? B12 did it.

10/19/17 6:13pm

The SWC and Big 8 were hardly considered G5 types at the time

You aren’t wrong, but being a P5 isn’t about money. It’s about access.

10/19/17 6:17pm

Yeah, no, there is way more to P5 vs G5 than just access. Don't be silly.

Yeah, no, there actually isn’t.

10/19/17 6:30pm

You have massively oversimplified. Now I can see why you think G5 suicide is a viable option. Sad.

LiveCoug

10/19/17 6:31pm

And yet, you have no rebuttal. Super sad frowny face.

10/19/17 6:33pm

There are tons of differences. Access to NY6 is most certainly not the only difference. In fact, like you

The one characteristic that all P5 teams share, and every G5/Indy does not, is

The 64 P5 teams + Notre Dame control CFB.

They are free to draft their own legislation that anyone can follow.

They are in and that's the point. None of those crap teams in P5 are pining to join G5 where they

P5 is exactly about access to NY6 and CFP. Example:

And they had the big bowls locked up before the BCS & NY6 - Rose, Orange, Sugar,

But apparently you can create a “P5 Equivalent” by ditching a G5

Gil Buckman

10/19/17 6:18pm

Agreed. There is no motivation for the p5 leagues to elevate a g5 league.

10/19/17 6:18pm

They don’t have to have a choice.

10/19/17 6:23pm

The money still isn't there. G5 gets a pittance compared to the rest.

mudpupper

10/19/17 6:52pm

I never said this plan solves the money issue.

10/19/17 7:03pm

But what if the AAC identifies as a P5 conference with G5 parts?

RenoCoug

10/19/17 6:25pm

If a conference identifies themselves as P5, u must accept it! Bigot!

claw

10/19/17 7:15pm

Folks you can not create a P5 team out of Independence parts.

Half the fanbase knows this sad truth.

ASU, Arizona and Utah were all "G5" type parts.

This could have potentially happened in the BCS Era with BYU, Utah, and TCU in
