Hypothetically: If every team in CUSA, MAC, or Sun Belt...


Jan 12, 2021, 9:35 PM

Hypothetically: If every team in CUSA, MAC, or Sun Belt could play with 12 players on offense and defense, would one of the teams win a national championship next year? (normal year, no COVID stuff)

Hypothetically: No because the hypothetically correct CFP Committee would place a Power 5 Conference team in the 4th spot behind Clemson, Alabama and OSU which have somehow hypothetically
managed to place their team in the top 3 each year by playing only conference games.

I would say with 12, No.
13? Yes.

However, I pose this question. If you could take an all-star team from those conferences, would they be good enough to win the title?

If you could take an all-time greats team of USUC players...could they win an SEC title...I'm thinking not...

No, an all MAC team would not win the national title. Position by position the top teams still have more
Elite talent in most years.

Maybe in basketball.

They would kill the Power-5 squad.

Group of 5 teams often have fair-to-decent talent in their starting 11's; their problem is that their depth drops off a cliff after that.

You give the Group of 5 team that extra man and they get an enormous schematic advantage. There's one group of teams that are Top-3 or so talent, another group congregated in maybe the Top-10...after that there's a muddle of about 60 or so teams (which includes a lot of Group of 5 teams) that can all beat one another on any given day.

Football is a game of X's and O's as much as Jimmy's and Joe's. Give somebody an extra X or O and the game gets lopsided, really fast.
