This is only a product of sportswriters' imaginations, not anyone connected with those programs, because of one fatal flaw that is now mandated in college football, in every game [I]someone has to lose[/I].  This isn't pro soccer where both teams get a point for a tie and move on to the next game.  Someone has to lose and everybody connected to those schools is saying, "Not me!  It's bad enough we have to play 2 or 3 games each year that are potential losses.  Now you're saying we should play 12 like that?  Uh-uh."

There is nothing to stop these teams from playing each other OOC, except that overriding concept, [I]someone has to lose[/I].  AMOF, Georgia just finished a series with ND.

The Big XII and ACC schools have all signed a Grant of Rights which gives all their TV money to their conferences to divide up until the leagues disband.  That would knock out Clemson, Florida State (if it ever gets back to where it was), Texas, and Oklahoma, before the legislatures get a whack at them, because they're not going to play that tough schedule for "free".

What's the difference between that "Super League" and what goes on in the playoff now?  Has there been a dozen different teams in the playoff?  And if they did break away, does anyone think any network would shell out big bucks for the playoff of who's left?
