OK some rough math. At any given time there are 120 FBS teams, plus 127 FCS teams, all vying for broadcast spots any given Saturday.
Presently, there are roughly 76 teams whose conferences still intend to play.
Then there are say 8-10 teams such as Nebraska and SFA who "intend" to play a full slate.
So 86 teams out of 227. That's roughly 40%. And whereas you'd have 97 games on any given weekend on a regular week, you'd have 36 games on any given week this year. Assuming a similar number of people tune in, you're looking at 2.5 times as many eyeballs on any given game than a year prior. Obviously this won't be 100%, but people watch random college football games.
Supposing that SFA can schedule some P5 opponents, you're looking at a significant marketing opportunity for SFA if it's safe to play.
So who's available to play. Here's the tricky part. SEC is conference only. No warmup games.
Big 12 and ACC are mostly scheduled for their one non conference games. This could change if teams like HBU drop out of their matchups with tech.
So, available with schedule rooms is "Nebraska, Iowa, BYU, Army, Liberty, the Sunbelt, Conference USA, & the AAC.
Conference USA & CUSA have an odd number of teams, so someone won't have an opponent every single week.
Expect a decent number of Sunbelt games as well, as they'll need to fill early season cancelation and are more our level.
Carthel says he expects to be able to schedule a full 11 games, so I'm assuming they already have had conversations with many potential opponents.
If it's safe to play, this could be the opportunity of a lifetime.
