Who is Moo U? I'd guess Mississippi State.

The integrity of the sport is something that I'm worried about.

Could it be good for the sport to have 2 giant monopolies, each as rich as can be, with everybody else as essentially a lower division? I don't think so.

But is there any way to better balance money among 4 or 5 'Power' conferences?

I read the title as "The future of CNB" and thought SC had lost another poster.....

Given those cowbells, shouldn't Mississippi State be the Bulls rather than Bulldogs?

There will eventually be 2 leagues: An "affiliated" league, a pro minor league seperate from the schools, but paying to use the associated school logo and facilities. Then there will be a scholarship league where non NFL prospects can play for an education.

I believe there are still currently 65 teams in the Power Five.

I'm currently of the opinion that in conjunction with moving to an eight-team playoff (or more), we seem to be going the super-conference route, with four conferences of 16 teams (top 64).

You'd have to somehow otherwise equalize the schedules, IMO, and have divisional champions perhaps with wildcards, like the NFL.

One would assume that those outside of the 64 could have their own structure, or still play somewhere in the bowl system.

There's a chance that none of this will actually happen, or that the numbers could be altered (like top 32, for example), but I feel like this is at least the impetus for what we've been seeing in general.

The all-SEC schedule last season did it for me.

Which schools will be in each grouping, and how will that be decided?
