I am not a fan of the new Frankenstein conferences...the SEC has a particular strength...on any given Saturday, you can see multitudes of cars flying school colors caravanning to a conference game.  Contiguity is a good thing for fandom.

The fan experience for UCF must be quite different.....their two nearest conference members are 13 and 14 hour drives distant,,,and others, well, check your bag and put on your headphones.

I like a northeastern based conference, a southern based, western based, Midwestern, etc.  The made for TV cross country conferences may be good for the media networks, but football in the stands is changing.

I can tell you from my former years sitting in the stands in Tallahassee...BC, Cuse, Pitt fans were  a small bunch....Florida. Miami, Clemson sold their allotments.

45 years ago, #4 Pitt came to town and we were excited...they lost their only game that year in Tallahassee...I remember that season so well...the first season going to games with my now wife.  But even being #4, they were scarce.
