NCCU vs Alcorn State. Not Grambling State.

A good move, IMO. Far fewer games in Week 0 so more attention available outside the normal audience for the game, although the original Sunday time slot also made for less competition for eyes.

What about spring playoffs? Shouldn’t be any special celebration bowls in April May that prevent MEAC or SWAC from participating right?

These two conferences would add some juice to the playoffs as far as I’m concerned

Ivy League ... same for you

MEAC Champ will be in Playoffs. I don't think the SWAC is participating
