Message: [QUOTE="Billy Jack, post: 4343335, member: 4173"] I agree. 24 is right on target as the goal. I think they’re looking at 4 six-team divisions. Add Washington, Oregon, Cal, And Stanford out West for one division. Add Virginia, North Carolina, and Georgia Tech to Penn State, Maryland, and Rutgers for an Eastern division. I think that Notre Dame is the one they want to add to the Midwest. I’m guessing that this is the scenario that forces ND’s hand. The money gap is simply to great. I don’t think that NBC can match the payout that ND will get from the B1G. In addition, the national championship will probably be a matchup between the B1G and SEC champions. ND can’t leave themselves out of NC consideration. That will gave them 12 members in the Midwest to divide into two 6-team divisions however they want. If ND says no, Pitt is probably the backup choice [/QUOTE]
