RE: Idaho says being FBS is what's right for them
I actually feel for Idaho and the WAC. Cal Poly, Eastern Washington, Montana, Montana State, North Dakota State, South Dakota State, and throw in Sam Houston and McNeese might have saved the WAC, but the cost-benefit analysis shows it's not worth it. Montana and NDSU already own their respective markets, but the populations are so small moving to FBS wouldn't see a lot of increase in attendance and other revenue.
I don't think it's necessary to do away with Idaho. Adding Coastal or EKU in the East would be just fine:
Idaho, NMSU, Texas St., stAte, ULL, ULM
App, GS, Ga St, Troy, USA, EKU/Coastal
5 games in division with 3 out rotating with pairs Idaho/NMSU, Texas St./stAte, ULL/ULM, App/EKU-Coastal, GS/GaSt, Troy/USA
Championship game at best record first Saturday in December. Do away with a bye or start a week earlier. If Championship game is 2nd week that runs into bowls 3rd week
