It really won't be hard. Big 10 is sitting at 18 schools. SEC is at 16. SEC adds 2 more....lets say Kansas & NC State.

OK, from here, just simply set it up similar to an NFC/AFC Model:

SEC East: South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, NC State, Tennessee, Kentucky

SEC Central: Auburn, Alabama, Vanderbilt, Ole Miss, Miss State, LSU

SEC West: Missouri, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Kansas, Texas

Big 10 East: Rutgers, Maryland, Ohio St., Penn St., Michigan, Michigan St.

Big 10 Central: Indiana, Purdue, Illinois, Northwestern, Wisconsin, Minnesota

Big 10 West: Iowa, Nebraska, Southern Cal, UCLA, Oregon, Washington

For scheduling, play the 5 schools in your division, 2 from each of the other divisions in your conference, & 3 out of conference games of your choosing. The out of conference games can only count toward your playoff seeding if numerous in-conference tie breakers don't work.

For playoffs, 8 from the SEC & 8 from the Big 10. Winner of each division is in plus the next 5 best. Winner of the SEC playoff meets the winner of the Big 10 playoff for the whole ball of wax.

Example:

SECE1-Georgia
SECAL8-LSU

SECAL4-Tennessee
SECAL5-Ole Miss

SECC1-Alabama
SECAL6-South Carolina

SECW1-Texas
SECAL7-Missouri

B1GE1-Penn State
B1GAL8-Michigan

B1GAL4-Ohio St.
B1GAL5-Illinois

B1GC1-Indiana
B1GAL6-Iowa

B1GW1-Oregon
B1GAL7-Minnesota

It really ain't hard, & this would give us a true national champion. What's left of the Big 12, ACC, & all the others can form their own playoff & crown their own champion.

I stopped reading at add Kansas and NC State.
 
Something similar is the ultimate plan.
 
They should just have 2 ultra mega conferences for football at this point.

Split the ACC/Big 12 off into the B1G and SEC. Have 4 divisions in each conference. Go to a 16 team playoff Division Champs get a auto bid into the playoffs then 8 wildcard bids with some kind of BCS like formula.

The G5 will piss and moan so I guess give them 1 bid if you must.

As a Vandy alumn, I think we need to leave the dead wood out - Bama can jump in with the ACC, they are a basketball school now.
 
there's one school in OP's home state that has multiple national titles and they aren't located in the shithole state capital.

1. Kill the ncaa. Start a new league, “COLLEGE FOOTBALL UNION.”
2. CFBU organizing 64 member schools into four 16-team divisions.
3. Each division plays a nine-game division schedule.
4. The division schedule is set up into a four-team-pods OR three-permanent-rivals scheme.
5. The two teams in each division with the best intra-div records play in a DCG (divisional championship game) to decide Divisional Champ.
6. 8 or 12-team CFBU playoff.
7. Four Division champions are guaranteed the four top seeds in the CFBU Playoffs.

I support this. Thing is there are more schools like Iowa State than Ohio State - including in the B1G and SEC. I say let the gluttons go, and the rest of us will just enjoy our CFB Saturdays again just fine. I'm enjoying mine. Cannot wait until Saturday morning @ AT&T Stadium. Win or lose, that will be the last game I really care about this year in CFB.

I'd watch. Except I would probably change it to 48 teams (at least). 8 teams per division. 7 division games, 1 crossover per other divisions (keeps the 12 game regular season) and you play the corresponding team based on where you finished in your division. So the team that finished 5th in their division last year would play the 5 other teams that finished 5th in their division last year and so on for all the other 7 teams.

Every time you post that link I open it just to laugh at the second post.

I agree 100%. I’d say only half a dozen schools in the B1G are more similar to Ohio State than Iowa State.

Let them go. Who likes the chances of Purdue and Miss State winning very much?
 
Scar has one solid season a decade and OP thinks that’s good enough to be included with the big boys.
