That's going to be a nightmare for their conference when it comes to travel arrangements

I don’t know that it will be a big deal.

4 divisions of 7 teams each.

PAC, B1G, B1G, ACC

So a 8 game schedule would be 6 in division, one game to travel to.. and one will travel to you. A 10 game schedule will be 2 travel dates.. not that big of a deal.

Imo it will really function more like 2-4 conferences under one big umbrella.

Football would be an issue for travel, just not a major one. But what about all the other non-profitable sports. Soccer, tennis, softball, women’s basketball ect

Only football and basketball make money at most of those schools. Some make money on baseball but every other sport already loses money. Make it more expensive for the non profit sports Will hit AD budgets.
