re: We don't need 8 teams in the playoff, we need four balanced conferences

Some play 8 games, the PAC has 9, the Big 12 doesn't have a championship game

So what? How they want to determine their champion is irrelevant. They put their best team up against other conferences best teams.

and ND and BYU don't want to be in a conference. You can't force universities to do something they don't want to do.

I wouldn't force them to do shite, they don't have to compete for the national title if they don't want to. For decades ND didn't participate in bowl games because they didn't want to. Then, in 1969, they suddenly decided they wanted to and fricked LSU out of a shot at the national title.

Hell, the Globe Trotters didn't participate in a conference, so they didn't get to play for the NBA championship.

You can't force conferences to dissolve.

Who said anything about dissolving conferences? However, as it stands today, you can force teams out of Div IA.
