Message: [QUOTE="Hamms30, post: 5319588, member: 7714"] I'm starting to lean towards the side others have taken of a Tier 1 / Tier 2 Premier League idea. Take the 136 FBS teams and going Tier 1 64 teams - 8 divisions of 8 teams all play each other. Winner goes to College Football playoffs. All #2's have a playoff for the last 4 spots. Bottom 8 teams have a playoff and losers get relegated to Tier 2 where the other 72 teams are and split up into 8 divisions of 9. Division winners all play a playoff to get promoted to Tier 1. All the media outlets negotiate collectively for broadcasting both tiers and payout structures are set up accordingly. Football has gotten too big for the rest of college sports and at this rate, soon the bubble is going to pop and bring everything down with it. Carve them out and then the conferences can all stay the way they are for all the other sports where travel and logistics is a much bigger deal than the sport that only plays once a week. [/QUOTE]
