I still say we don't need a FCS, or 1-AA, team. There are plenty of FBS teams we can compete with and defeat. I'd rather play Western Kentucky, New Mexico State, or Florida International than Gardner-Webb, Howard, or Morgan State. Plus, I still believe the NCAA should quit letting games against 1-AA count toward bowl eligibility. It hurts schools in the non-BCS conferences because they are getting on the BCS schools schedules as much as they used to.As far as the only one BCS level team I can go along with that. At least to a degree. I wouldn't want to play more than one mid-level or top BCS conference team but wouldn't mind playing a BCS conference bottom feeder in addition to an "ATM" game as it was referred to before. I'd have no problem with us playing both a Penn State and an Iowa State, Washington State, or Duke in the same season.
As long as the NCAA lets you count one, we still need to play it. I'd rather not either, but I think we need to because it serves two purposes, first is the aforementioned bowl eligibiglity game. Look, we're not likely consistently knock win against even low-level BCS teams or the teams where it would seem we have a 50/50 shot with. We need to have some place for a "guaranteed" victory to help us. Morgan State is to us as we are to Penn State. Second, it is one of the few ways we can get a home game without a 2-1 deal or a home and home. If we play one ATM game every year, we need to have a way to balance out our home schedule. 6 homes games and six away is what you want every year.
