I was kinda surprised that NDSU vs. SDSU and NDSU vs. NIA

pulled in higher numbers than NDSU vs. JMU considering both games were more regional games and earlier rounds in the Playoff. I guess the time of the broadcast and which channel (ESPN vs. ESPN2) the game is broadcasted on can be factors (assuming you consider NDSU vs. K-State on FS1 a fluke). Assuming the bowl games are scrapped and both (P5 and G5) have their own Playoff, then it would be interesting to see if the G5 Playoff would directly compete against with the P5 Playoff in the early rounds. Also, I am assuming that both playoffs don't end up on the same network(s).

Houston pouring cash into sports, will its P5 push pay off? -- HOO86 07/31/2018 2:09PM

When the G5 creates a National Championship, fans & TV money will go up. -- Stech 08/02/2018 9:56PM

If the G5s end up creating their own National Championship -- VTHokie2000 08/03/2018 12:16PM

The fans of their schools will finally have something meaningful to watch, -- Stech 08/04/2018 08:25AM

When did I ever say I wasn't a fan of G5 schools? -- VTHokie2000 08/04/2018 5:18PM

The comparison is what the G-5 gets now, pretty much nothing. So this will -- Stech 08/04/2018 8:14PM

I don't disagree. However, it will still take an organization -- VTHokie2000 08/04/2018 10:46PM

Good article. The P64/65 will play G5, but not FCS. The SEC plays FCS n Nov -- Stech 08/05/2018 08:34AM

If the G5s decide they want their own Playoff, then I could see a scenario -- VTHokie2000 08/05/2018 7:17PM

A lot of posturing in these quotes to get leverage. I have followed JMU on -- Stech 08/06/2018 11:04AM

I suspect there will be a lot of posturing from all sides as we get closer -- VTHokie2000 08/06/2018 1:27PM

Another great article and these games kick off at 11AM Ctrl, 10 Mt & 9 Pac. -- Stech 08/06/2018 6:22PM

Only if Baylor fully implodes -- Tailgate Guru 08/01/2018 09:46AM

Certainly possible, but -- OU_Sooner 07/31/2018 2:24PM

Frankly at the end you have to be invited -- Mercury 07/31/2018 7:54PM

In order to receive an invitation, a school must be considered to... -- EDGEMAN 08/01/2018 09:59AM

Here's the embarrassment right here. -- HOO86 08/11/2018 11:39AM

But there was no net pickup. Loservile for Maryland. -- Atlee Hokie 08/13/2018 07:10AM

And then there's Louisville ** -- CrystalCoveHokie 08/02/2018 4:30PM

I have a feeling by the time schools like Houston, SMU, UConn, Cincy, etc -- VTHokie2000 07/31/2018 5:38PM

There has always been different levels of competition. That's life. And -- IB4TECH 08/02/2018 5:47PM

I don't disagree that there has always been different levels -- VTHokie2000 08/03/2018 1:23PM

I was kinda surprised that NDSU vs. SDSU and NDSU vs. NIA
