Now there's less incentive for teams to jump ship. #SBC

You are correct. CUSA has one thing over the SBC now with regards to bowls. And that is a bowl tie in with a P5 opponent. But most years that bowl tie in will not be a team from the P5 with a winning record.

CUSA still has more TV exposure/money (although I think that will start to even out)

CUSA has better basketball (although the gap is narrowing).

The gap is narrowing?

The Sun Belt loses WKU and replaces them with a pair of sub-300 teams and that narrows the gap?

The Sun Belt as a conference next year will be SWAC bad.

The gap is narrower than it ever has been.

And next year it will get bigger.

The avg. RPI of CUSA teams this year was 175, avg. RPI of SBC was 200.

Change those numbers to account for the changes to the conference lineups in 2014-15 and the average goes to 172 for C-USA, 228 for SBC.

SBC hoops is gonna be brutal.

Football is gonna be fine with ASU and UL and Troy should rebound and USA is solid this year, but you're eventually gonna have to pay the piper with Idaho, NMSU and the transitionals.

Last year the SBC was solid because you only had one bad team at the bottom, this year, you're going to have at least three.
