CAA TODAY - THE RACE FOR EIGHT

Last week I talked about needing eight FCS victories to secure a playoff spot. During the weekend, several teams became one game closer.

CAA coaches believe that a conference team with at least a 7-4 record also should draw playoff consideration. I, too, agree with that thinking, but the problem becomes how many CAA teams with said record will the committee select?

As you'll see below, the contenders group has gotten a little smaller, while the ìbubbleî teams have grown.

Oh sure, why the hell not just let the CAA make up 40% of the playoff field. Hell, let them get the whole association in and just make it a CAA championship instead of representing the whole FCS. There...settled.


(sorry, my math is wacked today, so I corrected it, but it makes the point, regardless)

I agree with this sarcasm.

The rest of the country is so weak I suggest dropping the N from the playoffs this year.
