Message: [QUOTE="sabach, post: 757968, member: 866"] The ACC GOR will be very important in this. If the Big 12 must expand to get to 12 in order to have a championship game, they may have to look at schools outside of the ACC (Cinn, USF). If ND must join a conference to be a conference champion, that has to be the ACC, if Swofford is correct. If ND goes to the ACC, does the ACC go to 16, if so is that 16th UConn? In the end, I think that conference champion will be defined as whatever team each individual conference deems its champion. I can't imagine that conference champion will have much weight though because conferences define champions in different ways and ND is not even in a confernce. The problem is a one win SEC team that is ranked number 2 in the country at the end of the year (say Texas A&M) and doesn't even win its division let alone conference because it lost in the regular season to the #1 team in the country (say Alabama).
