Big South coaches weigh in on possible 12-game season – Damien Sordelett, News & Advance
Kyle Kallander says in his opening remarks that the Big South has a plan in place for football expansion.

With only 6 teams in the league after Coastal’s departure, the Big South must be proactive if it intends on keeping the auto-bid to the FCS playoffs which requires at least 6 football playing members.
Liberty is picked to finish 2nd in the Big South, with Charleston Southern the favorite to repeat.
My ballot:
CSU
LU
Monmouth
Kennesaw State
Gardner-Webb
