Teel has no inside info on this issue and he would admit that. He also pushes for divisional realignment and is never listened to.

David Glenn would be the guy with real insider knowledge and he has said nothing.

Top football programs can make about atleast 5 million dollars for every home game. UF/FSU, CU/USC, UGA, these 5 schools are the holdouts. They have 9 games baked in every year. Nobody outside of USC/Stanford in the country have more games baked in and that is because they want to play ND home/home.

Teel's argument for 9 games is factually wrong. The ACC would lose content if it went to 9 conference games as teams would lose home games the ACC controls to play conference road games which the conference would already own.

If the TV partner wants more rotation in the schedule they switch up the divisions the ways discussed or push harder for the3+5+5 division less format. If I were Swofford I would go the SEC commish and say I will vote for a mandate to play 9 conference games each year unless you support our deregulation proposal they and the Big Ten blocked. If the ACC/SEC/Big XII  voted for the deregulation proposal it would pass. The ACC/Big XII voted for it and the Big Ten/Pac-12/SEC were against.
