Rip the Band aid off and get it over with. Going that way is inevitable

I think their "value" would suffer more than they realize because it's nothing

At least BYU is in a much better position than it was in 2012. I believe that

Just leave. Nobody cares about the USFL. They can go try to be a better version

This would be successful though. They already have a brand with a following

Short term but I would never watch any of their games. 100% NFL after that

If they agree to move to 16 team play off let them have 4 spots each

BYUFam1

The plan is for them each to get 4 auto, but increase the size to 14

I believe they overestimate the appetite for a carved-out, semi-pro SEC/B10

This is 100% True

I wonder what % of viewers of their games are outside B10/SEC?

This is true, but there's a silver lining for the rest of the country.

but what about all the interest in the semi-pro UFL and Arena football leagues?

Attendance, TV ratings, and revenue numbers show that there is a big appetite

Stop watching the SEC and B10. We are in an exciting conference. I follow the

If this happens, out of principle, I will never watch a single P2 game.

Screw em. Exclude the SEC/B10 from March Madness, casual fans wouldn’t notice

Only way to make them rethink is for everyone else to band together and refuse

Let them. I don't care. Let's separate. Don't cave or kowtow. Pathetic.

Relegation in CFB would be so awesome. And solve a ton of the current issues with level-of-play issues.

I love this idea so much. If I found a genie lamp today, this would probably be one of my wishes.
