Memphis, UAB, Tulane, UNLV, New Mexico, NMSU, SDSU, CSU, Oregon State, Wazzu all projected for Super League

Longtime college football radio host Greg Swaim strongly implied that Memphis, UAB, Tulane, UNLV, New Mexico, New Mexico State, San Diego State, Colorado State, Oregon State, and Wazzu would all be part of the proposed 80-team college football Super League.

"Got an interesting e-mail from a colleague who wondered 'why you don't just tell all of those fans of G5 teams that they aren't getting in the Club?' My response is the same to the Memphis, UAB, Tulane, UNLV, New Mexico, New Mexico State, San Diego State, Colorado State, Oregon State, Washington State and fans of all current G5 schools, If we go to 80 schools in eight divisions for the College Football Super League, as many are starting to think, they may all be getting in! Not saying they will, but DEFINITELY not ready to say they're completely out either," Swaim wrote.

There'd be 70 permanent members in such a league, with 10 additional schools being part of a division that'd see relegation from season to season. As The Athletic's Stewart Mandel writes, "the 50-plus second-division teams would have the opportunity to compete their way into the upper division, creating a promotion system similar to the structure in European football leagues."

College football Super League unlikely, for now, given current TV contracts

Don't expect the college football Super League to happen right now, with FSU and Clemson likely to sue their way out of the ACC and into the SEC -- for ESPN's sake to disrupt the status quo as much as possible --, UNC and Virginia joining the Big Ten, and a slew of other ACC schools flocking to the Big 12 in the meantime.

If any conglomerate is to be formed, that'd more than likely take place in the 2030s, which is too far in the future to even speculate about at this point.

At least fans of Memphis, UAB, Tulane, UNLV, New Mexico, New Mexico State, San Diego State, Colorado State, Oregon State, and Wazzu can rest easy knowing their favorite program won't be left out of it if/when that happens, though.
