I'll play. Was bouncing this around a bit last fall. came up with the following conferences. First is the Big 5 (16 team conferences) and then the next 4 (12 teams each). This is just in fun just football thinking only. Taking out who has this network and that network etc...It is certainly open to better options which I am sure we see here.
Here it goes:
BIG 5...
Pac 16: North: Washington, Wash St, Oregon, Oregon St, Cal, Stanford, Boise St, Utah
South: USC, UCLA, Arizona, Ariz St, Colorado, Col St, Fresno St, San Diego St
Conference of Entitlement: West: Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss, Miss St, Arkansas, LSU, Texas A&M, Mizzou
East: Georgia, South Carolina, Clemson, Florida, Florida St, Kentucky, Tennessee, Vandy
ACC: North: BC, Syracuse, Pitt, East Carolina, Wake Forest, Louisville, Virginia Tech, UConn
South: Duke, UNC, East Carolina, NC State, Georgia Tech, Miami, UCF, USF
Big 10: West: Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Ohio St, Northwestern, Cincy
East: Michigan, Mich St, Penn St, Rutgers, Maryland, Indiana, Purdue, Navy
Big 12: North: Kansas, K-State, Iowa St, W. Virginia, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Ok State, Memphis
South: Texas, Texas Tech, SMU, TCU, Houston, BYU, Air Force, UTSA
Next 4....
MWC: Hills: Hawaii, San Jose St, Nevada, Wyoming, Idaho, Utah St
Desert: UNLV, UTEP, New Mexico, NM St, North Dakota St, Rice
Gulf: North: Tulsa, Mid Tenn, Arkansas St, N Texas, Texas St, So Miss
South: Tulane, LA Tech, LA Monroe, LA Laf, Troy, UAB
Down Southern: North: Army, UMass, Temple, W Kentucky, Marshall, Old Dominion
South: Florida Int, Florida Atl, Georgia St, Georgia So, Appalachian St, S Alabama
**North Dakota State was given a promotion and UAB was given their football back under this hypothetical in order to make it an even number of teams.
All will have a Conf Champ game. Big 5, the 5 Conf Winners and 3 "at-large" teams will compete in playoff.
Next 4 conf champs and 4 "at-large" will compete in playoff.
Let the bashing of this begin.....
