UNLV Top 25 Ranking?

Boise got the LA bowl last year, though we arguably got the better bowl. Not sure if we would have the liberty of declining for anything other than the playoffs. Not sure how this works these days.

That is because they won the conference.

We weren't ranked last week in either poll. I imagine we come in somewhere similar in todays poll, but agree that a loss for Army probably eliminates them, with their super soft schedule.
We should also root for Memphis to beat Tulane. Memphis isnt able to get into AAC championship game so a win by them doesnt hurt us if we win out. Just need that Fresno team to come through for us

This.

I believe Army vs Tulane is the AAC title game. They are only playing for home field at this point, and each only has one regular season conference game if I recall correctly

Are you saying that the 5 leaving are getting their shares of the bowls and CFP money this year and next? I thought the MWC are keeping their shares as their defection fees?

Yes they get it. The contract says so. The penalty fees have nothing to do with what money they are owed while they are still under contract.

What if you gave your 2 weeks, worked those two weeks, and then your job decided to not pay you for that time?

Technically that's correct, however it's typical to withhold the payouts to cover the exit fee vs schools having to fund their exit fees straight up... so instead of recieving the TV payout and NCAA shares they go in as payments towards the exit fee.

There was no need to go that far. You can like them for what they do behind the scenes and still hate/despise their sports.

True. True.

I still hate Jimmer and Mr and Mrs Cummard.

Good to see Boise ranked well in CFP. As a program they deserve the recognition, they’ve earned it this year and as a program over the years. It also helps us by bringing more attention to the conference and UNLV often gets mentioned along with Boise given that we’re both in the running for the CFP spot. Plus it puts a lot of attention on the MWCC game if we can get into it. I like our chances if we can get into the game. All the pressure would be on Boise not to lose. Seriously sucks that our fate is on Fresno beating CSU. That home game against Boise was so huge I don’t think we all realized just how critical it was.
