Basically it will eliminate the need to divisions to have a Championship game in the conference.

So the ACC will be able to manipulate the conference schedules as well as pick what two teams will play for their conference championship.

Their conference football wise is such a dumpster fire.

lol wut?

The ACC is signing its own death warrant if this passes.

This would make it FAR easier to poach them down the line b/c then the 4 team pod system in a 16+ team conference would be feasible

Of course they're doing this. The division that doesn't have Clemson and FSU in it is absolute dogshit.

The SEC should do the same. Get rid of the divisions and rotate 7 opponents with 2 locked. Best records/highest ranked/ whatever plays in the championship.

It's a 4 team playoff, not a 64 team playoff. Why would they even match their two highest ranked teams? Just match their highest ranked team against the worst team in the conference to play for the title in order to all-but-guarantee their highest-ranked team doesn't get upset.
