Mentioning about just picking the top two a Big Teams for the conference championship game.
Hmmm...no divisional champs? Would that open the door for ACC to go to 3 divisions?
It was very simple for the Big XII. The only teams another conference would want are Texas and Oklahoma. They got the SEC and B1G to go along with a rule change that allows them to put the two teams with the best records into their championship game because the Big XII’s implosion wouldn’t do anything for the SEC and the B1G. If the ACC imploded, however, ...The big 12 went from being idiots with no title game, to geniuses just picking the top 2 teams
The only thing that would have made this year any sweeter would have been ND getting stiffed for Georgia. You will never convince me that Georgia is not one of the four best teams. I think the NCAA was just throwing a bone to the Big Bevo to keep further chaos from ensuing. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it!It was very simple for the Big XII.

The B1G and PAC-12 May be more amenable to a rule change now.
The NCAA has nothing to do with the College Football Playoffs or who is in which conference. It doesn’t matter to them if Bevo is in the Big XII, the B1G, or gets “the Notre Dame deal” from the ACC.The only thing that would have made this year any sweeter would have been ND getting stiffed for Georgia.

Syracuse, BC, Pitt, Virginia POD....sign me up!Bring on the pods!

The most common pod structure involves ND’s joining the ACC and Navy as #16. You play everyone in your pod and your horizontal line + 1 other pod each year.Syracuse, BC, Pitt, Virginia POD...sign me up!

Clemson. FSU. Miami. ND
Ga Tech. Louisville. Va Tech. UVa
Duke. NC State. Wake. UNC
Pitt. BC. Syracuse. Navy
Of corse, the software eats all my work, but I hope you catch the drift.
I’m rooting for the Hybrid - Navy for football and G’town for everything else.You know what's great about having Navy as a full time member...
it'll piss off the Nutmeggers.
You’re right, I need to fix my third line to: NC State, Wake, Duke, UNC. I forgot about the Textile Bowl.So I did this previously if the ACC adopted the 3-5-5 here is how I would do it.
Clemson- Georgia Tech, Florida State, NC State
Duke- North Carolina, Virginia, Georgia Tech
North Carolina- Duke, Virginia, NC State
NC State- Clemson, North Carolina, Wake Forest
Florida State- Clemson, Miami, Louisville
Georgia Tech- Duke, Clemson, Virginia Tech
Virginia- Duke, North Carolina, Virginia Tech
Virginia Tech- Virginia, Georgia Tech, Miami
Boston College- Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Wake Forest
Wake Forest- NC State, Louisville, Boston College
Syracuse- Pittsburgh, Boston College, Louisville
Pittsburgh-Syracuse, Boston College, Miami
Miami- Florida State, Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh
Louisville- Florida State, Wake Forest, Syracuse
I did it the best I could to protect every team's history. I as an SU would have loved Miami as our 3rd but Pitt has been playing them in the Coastal so we would get Louisville as our 3rd and its an easier matchup anyway.
Every team plays those 3 teams every year and then rotates 5 of the other 10 every year. Top 2 teams play for the conference title. Use basketball tiebreakers if there is a tie for conference title game.
You play 3 teams every year.What does 3 5 5 mean?
Everyone has 3 teams it plays every year and 2 rotating slates of 5 teams. After playing one slate home-and-home, they rotate off and you play the other slate (that would be A-A-B-B rotation). They may rotate after the first year so everyone will have played everyone else in the conference after 2 years (A-B-B-A rotation).What does 3 5 5 mean?

Round robin becomes impossible once you get past 11. Since no one will even dip back below 12, IMO three divisions of 15 is the next best thing.
For football you get your division (4), a cross over rival in each of the other divisions (2), and then rotate two games vs each of the other divisions (4). So you play six teams every year and eight teams every other year. A player would see every team home and away at least once in their 4 years playing.
For basketball you get your yearly football opennents (6) home and away (12 games). Then the other teams you play once (8). So you see a team at home every other year.
Yes the football conference games goes to 10. The P5 should just break away and play only P5 games (2 OOC). Gives everyone 6 home and away. Networks would be happy.
