Depending on how the season shakes out.. you may see FAU in both of those televised games. We are the Belt team that has won our bowl games the last two years.

FAU vs. Troy
and
FAU vs. FIU as part of rivalry week

im sure fau fiu will be on tv ecspecially after the game lat year and its in fiu on campus satdium

Troy vs somebody good

and

FAU vs FIU

are my two picks… especially if we're both bowl eligible at that point.

The Sub Belt schools asked each member to not publish their football schedule until March because of TV contacts.

Now I understand why. They were talking with ESPN!

I would imagine if some juggling can be done, the Sun Belt may put some projected "good games" towards the end of the year to get some good TV exposure for some bowl-eligible matchups.

What has been infuriating to me is how these "Sunbelt Game of the Week" (you, know on that network few people see with announcers who can't properly pronounce the names of our coaches, players and even bands - "Haugabrook", "Band of the South") focus on some predetermined contest that oftentimes has nothing to do with nthe conference race, and about whom only fans of those two schools care.

The games should be chosen by the standings, general following and meaning to the conference. That week.
