That's 26 right there for sure, put in 6 misc. others and you'd have everybody that matters. True both for present relevance and past.

if any of y'all think the never-will-be-again UMiami and its poor football/fanbase deserves to be in because of their once-upon-a-time history - then so does Minnesota. Canes fans are too busy watching the Dolphins lose on Sunday, anyways.

West Virginia was added over Texas Tech

Rice has a winning record against Alabama.

Why are people including a team like Texas A&M over TCU or WVU? They are barely over .500. WVU, Arkansas, TCU, SCAR, are all vastly more successful.

If it went to 32 teams, it wouldn't take 6 teams from each conference. If they did then I can see them moving teams around, like a&m to big 12 since the big 12 has mostly shite teams. Same with the ACC.

SEC would get Bama, Auburn, Tennessee, LSU, Florida, and Georgia. The Big Six

Take 6 from each power 5 conference and you get 30. Throw in UCF and Memphis

shite I forgot about Notre Dame. Include them as one of the ACC teams since the ACC doesn't have 6 good ones to pick

Holy shite. That took a small amount of research and thought. Good job.

Rice and Bama don’t play every year. In that case we also have a winning record over Michigan too.
