We used to get pretty excited about winning conference championships.

I guess I must be in the minority. I have never seen the conference championship as anything to look forward to. I

You play to win as many games as possible every year.

Wrong! Every sport, in the world, has playoffs or championship games or

Most every other sport and division of the NCAA have a full playoff system so a division or conference championship

Odds are the winner of the AAC or MWC get the NY6.
Joe Hardy

Frankly with the playoff I couldn't care less about the NY6. Yes it would be fun and an accomplishment but it is not

If you could care less about NY6 then I don’t know what

Only chance is if the playoff is expanded to 16.

Once teams see the money they are leaving on the table by not having a true playoff system it will happen. Traditional

Fools gold. All of those teams finished the season with losing records.

And yet we relished those wins more than our bowl win over Wyoming

10/12/17 9:05am
That's not the point. The point is nobody talked about moving back to the MWC after we beat those teams.

Yep, Kansas, Rutgers, Vanderbilt, and Boston College are much better programs

If your aspiration is to be a bottom 1/3 P5 program then you must LOVE this year
CougarinOZ
10/12/17 3:23pm
The fact is we are somewhere in the middle of P5 most years
Colorado

Not my aspirations, that is the reality. We are P5 quality without P5 money and
Pretorian

No, just admitting that we are not P5
