	Southwestern Athletic Conference - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) is a college athletic conference made up of historically fl universities in the southern United States.
		The SWAC is one of three conferences (the others being the Ivy League and the Pioneer Football League) which do not participate in postseason play in the I-AA football tournament—and is the only one of the three whose members offer scholarships for football.
		These moves have been criticized by other conferences containing historically fl universities, especially the only other Division I conference made up entirely of such schools, the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference, which annually places its champion into the I-AA tournament.

	Southwest Athletic Conference - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Southwest Conference became an official body on December 8, 1914 at a formal meeting at the Rice Hotel in Houston.
		In 1940, an agreement was reached that the winner of the conference football title would play in the Cotton Bowl, which further established the prestige of both the bowl and the conference.
		As a result, the conference's market share in television coverage dwindled, and the disbandment of the SWC became inevitable after Arkansas left for the Southeastern Conference in 1992.

		The SWAC is better known for its football heritage — the conference has produced more than 10 players in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, including Walter Payton and Deacon Jones — and its show-stopping marching bands than for basketball.
		The sport has long struggled to attract attention beyond its small gyms and ardent fan bases, and as the popularity of college basketball and the N.C.A.A. tournament continue to grow, the SWAC is scrambling to follow.
		Some suggest that the talent gap between the SWAC and big-time conferences is stretching wider.
