Oregon & Washington To Big Ten

On a serious note, if true I just think the conferences are getting too big. Are teams really in the same conference if they don't play but every like 5-8 years MAYBE? If we do enter true superconferences (18-20 team leagues) we should evaluate making the conference championship games the first leg of the 12 team playoff.

I think we are way past that. Conferences should have been capped at 12. But if there’s money to be made, conferences will keep growing

Help me out ... they play teams like Cal, Stanford, WashSt, OreSt, Ariz. Don't get me wrong, Vandy is Vandy, but those are 5 teams that pretty much suck balls. USC should have won the PAC every fucking year. What am I missing?

no it falls back on consistent winning, or lack of.
It wasnt but 2018 Stanford had a near decade of winning.
Oregon State has been trending up and just had a 10 win season.
WSU goes in spurts 01-03 15-18

so how does this all differ from teams like South Carolina, Miss st, missouri, Kentucky, Arkansas?
 
Guessing if this happens this will be what drives ND to the B1G, which I'd be fine with at that point, since USC, would already be in, and Stanford would presumably join as well, so two of their main rivals would be league games. Four divisions with 5 teams. Honestly, this would be a great opportunity to schedule like an NFL model. Play your division. 4 games. Play another division. 5 games. Play the other two division with where you placed within your division. Winner plays winner 2nd place team plays 2nd place team etc... 2 games. 1 OOC game. You get made for tv matchups, which your broadcast partners would want

if they keep expanding, they will bring back divisions imo. It will resemble the 10-12 school conferences, but under a larger umbrella

When the conferences went beyond 12 members, they became too big.

Really and truly, if you go to 20, they should split them into two separate conferences under the same commissioner

Yep. 4 20 team conference, 2 divisions, play round Robin schedule. CCG between the 2 division champs. 1st round of playoffs. No wannabes allowed.

Meh. I think the playoffs should feature the best teams regardless of how many are in the same conference

Also, the 3 OOC games against the other 3 P4 conferences only.

The games on their schedule are winning something. Who would you have had in over OSU and TCU this year?

Not a matter of over. It's a matter of conference winners. Win your division and move on to CCG. The best team doesn't always win. Tough shit.

So, a Clemson team fresh off losing to SCar and either a Kansas State or Utah team with 3 losses?

All your plan does is give an advantage to lesser conferences like the Big Slow, ACC and Pac when we all know the more SEC teams that are in, the more quality teams that are in.

Really and truly, the 12 team playoffs just needs to be the top 11 SEC teams in a season and Ohio State

So what? Those loser teams should just change conferences and win their way in the CCG.

I've always kind of laughed and said they will add so many teams they will go back to divisions - The PAC and the Big Ten.

Hell, in some ways the SEC now has a SWAC division.

Bama generally has to get through UGA and UGA generally has to get through Bama and those are generally the two best teams in the country.

But personally, I’d rather UGA just go indecent and schedule 13 games than play in a mega conference with 9 conference games. No team playing 9 conference games has ever won a modern natty. B1G was still at 8 when OSU won

So between Alabama and Georgia, only 1 can win the CCG(opening round of the playoffs). The winner moves on.

Should be the NCG most years. Not a fan. Creates more lopsided matchups down the line.
