[QUOTE="omniorange, post: 53781, member: 636"]
Had the mega-conferences come about, I've heard rumor of a proposed plan that called for the elimination of one of the bye weeks to get in a 13th game by Thanksgiving Weekend, conference semi-final games (the equivalent of a Sweet 16 if there were a legitimate championship) in the week conference championship games occur now, and a conference championship game (the equivalent of an Elite 8) two weeks later (which would place it just after finals at most institutions, approximately a week before Christmas).

Then the traditional January 1 Bowl games that would include these top 4 conference champions as the the two key match-ups of what is the traditional BCS Bowl week with an NC match-up two weeks later.

But there are logistical problems with such a set-up, the main one being how do fans know which games to buy tickets for?  can the same fanbase realisticly buy tickets for 4 possible games in a month and a half? etc.

Cheers,
Neil
