It would be better if there were a system out there that gets the entirety of every full D1 school into a "division" of eight schools which play a seven game round robin where the outright winner faces the champ of another division in the same "conference" for a championship. Every D1 school must schedule one FCS school and one permanent FBS non-conference rival every year.
Nine game regular season schedule with probably half of each division reaching a bowl game for a tenth game if they don't win their division. Conference champs then get to participate in a potential three game playoff to determine a true CFB championship. |

I'm for it. If you can get rid of the NCAA then basketball becomes a much bigger money maker. The NCAA tournament is the only reason that broke dick organization even has any money.

We are going to end up with 2 major conferences, the SEC and the BIG. In the end each will have the same number of schools, adhere to the same set of rules, and will eventually schedule games against the other division.
Sixteen team playoff, 8 schools from SEC, 8 for BIG, just like the NFL. Super Bowl to determine the winner. |

ESPN was unwilling (unable?) to pay the SEC extra for something as incremental as going from 8 to 9 conference games. The Big 10 had the right approach going with multiple media partners and with a deal that starts immediately… the SEC entered into their deal with ESPN in 2020, but it doesn’t actually begin until 2024… so much will have changed with ESPN in those four years and not for the better. |

Have regents or state legislatures ever prevented a team from re-aligning conferences?

Otherwise, I haven't heard anything specific. Well, I take that back. Houston was left out for Baylor when the Big 12 formed because the governor of Texas was a Baylor grad. |
