4. Purdue
5. Wisconsin
6. Iowa
7. Minnesota
8. Northwestern

10. Michigan
11. Michigan State
12. Illinois
13. Indiana
14. USC
15. UCLA
16. Notre Dame
17. Stanford
18. Oregon
19. Washington
20. Virginia
21. Miami
22. North Carolina
23. Duke
24. Georgia Tech


SEC:
1. Alabama
2. Arkansas
3. Auburn
4. Florida
5. Georgia
6. Kentucky
7. LSU
8. Mississippi State
9. Missouri
10. Oklahoma

48 teams. Split revenue. One governing body... Now the fight for scheduling format and who wins a shot at the CFB playoffs.

This is why it’s going to stop at 20. It gets silly beyond that.

So GT is gonna get the exact same TV split as Ohio State or Name?

Since both currently make between $55 to $60 million in revenue and they obviously won't take a pay cut,where is the money coming from to pay GT $55 million per year?

I would think from the CFB playoff pie. 8-12 playoff could be worth ???

That is a pretty healthy conference in basketball for sure plus not bad at baseball,plus will be very decent in football.

All in all that is zbout as good as the big12 could do in my opinion except adding Missouri would be welcome.

Nebraska in the SEC is intriguing.

Here is Nebraska vs. LSU in 1971.

Sixteen teams is a perfect cap, but I don't see Baylor anywhere in your plan which automatically makes it good.

Why do you need expansion for a 12 team
playoff?

Just get to the super conference BS already and have regional divisions within them .
Everyone plays the same traditional schools with one or two out of region schools mixed in.

Have some kinda playoff eventually leading to super big ten conference champ vs super sec conference champ.

College super bowl

I do think it will be 2 24 team confs with 4 divisions of 6

Big10:
East-
Rutgers
Penn St
Michigan
Michigan St
Illinois
Notre Dame

North-
Ohio State
Indiana
Purdue
Nebraska
Northwestern
Iowa

West-
Wisconsin
Minnesota
UCLA
USC
Oregon
Washington

South-
Georgia Tech
Duke
UNC
Virginia
Miami
Maryland

SEC:
East-
UF
FSU
Clemson
South Carolina
UGA
NC State

North-
Tennessee
Kentucky
Vanderbilt
Missouri
Virginia Tech
West Virginia

West-
Arkansas
Texas
Kansas St
Kansas
Oklahoma
Oklahoma St

South-
Alabama
Auburn
Ole Miss
Miss St
LSU
Texas AM

5 Div games, 1 perm rivalry game, 3 ood games, 2 Other OOC games, 1 your choice game

Divisional playoffs 1week in December
Semi finals- Conf championships - Jan 1st
CFP Championship- Jan 10th

No playoff committee needed, no polls, basically NFL.

I would also pair up the rest of college football with G5 divisions, with their own title game..
Then have relegation for bottom 4 Conf teams switched out for g5 final 4.

I feel for the history and tradition due some of these programs, but you can’t keep taking in 100M a year and not putting out a reliable product. I would prefer you put out a great product, but using excuses for issues you gave yourself is not anyone else’s problem.

2 Super Conferences of 24-Teams



This is just so dumb - not harping on you, but the whole idea of a conference is basically null and void at this point. Why even have them?

I was just getting a geographical as possible, also putting “rivalries “ in divisions with only having to allocated 1 “possible” rivalry out of division…. Do think I’m pretty close on the 24 teams
