Even though I wouldn't mind playing teams like Clemson, UT and OU more often, we're already TOO DAMN BIG as it is! It's bad enough we get to play other members of the conference once every 10 years or whatever. Adding more people, no matter how good they are, will only make the problem worse.

I think if the SEC or any other conference did go up to 16 teams, it would be because the power conferences had successfully colluded to take all decision making away from the NCAA.

The key to a 16 team conference would be 10 conference games. You could also drop the East/West and go with four 4 team divisions- 3 division opponents and another 3 'rivalry' opponents, 1 from each other division, and then rotate through the non rivalry non division opponents. would mean playing every team at least every 3 years.

Not necessarily. If you do 4 pods of 4 teams, you'ld see everybody in 3 years:

A/B vrs. C/D
A/C vrs. B/D
A/D vrs. B/C

Full rotation in 6 years.

As it stands now, you see everybody ONCE in 6 years.
