Bama talking with TCU to replace USC.

BYU could go either way but Army makes no sense in being counted as P5. Army is equal to Navy and Air Force IMO. Both of which are in in G5 conferences.

We are suppose to play Army this year, up there.
Not sure that's going to happen now.

West Point, Annapolis and Colorado Springs are great places to play IMHO.

yeah, i don't have an issue with BYU being considered a P5. BYU is probably better historically than over half of the schools that are currently in P5 conferences.

I agree. I think they'd finish in the top half of nearly every P5 conference most years.

AD Mike Bohn: USC football still intends to play Alabama in 2020

Looks like Alabama made USC shit or get off the pot.

 

[trojanfan12]

Has he told the Cali guvnah yet?

Nobody cares what Governor Dandypants says.

Not sure how. USC has never said anything about not playing the game that I know of.

That seems a little obtuse with how California as a State is reacting to the current crises. Along with Oregon and Washington Governors saying that they will be closed up for while.

Also, why would Alabama start talking to TCU in the first place.

 

[Thiefery]

Think that there was some back channeling communication going on

 

[IronJaw]

Ummm.... we're supposed to be playing Oregon this year.



Why slum it with TCU?

The Frogs can be a very dangerous team to play. Patterson is an excellent coach who has won some big games.

I know. You can have a damn fine burger, but why go burger when you can get a nice steak

Patterson has been on a decline. He cannot find a QB since Boykin left and it wasn't like he recruited scrubs out of high school or anything. I also don't understand how people say he runs a tight ship when he has had multiple drug ring busts in FTW involving his own players. Somehow the national media over looks that.. Did you know they face penalties for getting busted of some of it's players getting paid for work they never did by "summer jobs"...?

This year could be interesting. It was reported that the P5 commissioners had a call with Roger Goodell. I could see a world where just the P5 plays. They maybe the only schools that have the Revenue and TV contracts to get the season going safely (testing etc). Ton of games are going to be cancelled, mostly games nobody wanted to watch anyway. It would be real interesting if the current situation led to the the creation of a new division. Can only happen if the conferences work together, so it still a long shot

Would all 65+ P5 members be allowed in or would some pruning occur? Let's be real. Some don't bring near as much to the table as others...even if they are "charter" members of a conference. They taketh more than they bringeth. How much are the others willing to subsidize them?

Other than Alabama

Two years of ho-hum scheduling on Alabama's part doesn't make them worse than Florida's consistently poor scheduling. Florida is the only power-5 team outside the ACC to schedule multiple FCS teams in one season in consecutive years.

 

[outofyourmind]

So, is it TCU or USC???

 

[BamaDude]

I agree. I think they'd finish in the top half of nearly every P5 conference most years.

There was a time when that was true. These days it would be closer to the middle third of a P-5 league, or the upper portion of the bottom third.

both

Alabama routinely has a terrible schedule. If the fans are lucky, they get just one P5 team OOC. You know this to be true, so not sure why you are denying it.

Just sit down dude...


Congrats on the Citrus bowl win by the way.
