Message: [QUOTE="TexanMark, post: 2849997, member: 35"] Keep the bowls basically the same. My tweak: How about any FBS team can schedule a FCS team during week 0 for an exhibition in late August? FBS/FCS teams can apply to not participate if it creates a financial or logistical strain. A set portion of a teams proceeds is donated to a foundation to help NCAA athletes after leaving school. Schools that participate can open camp 3-4 days earlier and get "x" amount of extra practices. The NCAA can use these games to try out new rules and equipment for evaluation. Targeting rules should be in effect to protect players. I think four 12 minute quarters would also be good. TV would be allowed as this would help for for the bills but halftime would be cut back to further shorten the game. Schools should set sensible pricing (maybe 60--75% of a normal ticket price.
