There might be an eleventh FBS conference before too long.

The WAC-ASUN alliance that was forged last season announced last week that they intend to move from the FCS division to the FBS division, of which the WAC was once a part of.

Remember, this all traces back to the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners’ intention to move to the SEC, which is anticipated to happen as soon as 2024, according to recent reports.
