Saw that article. Glad you posted it. Not sure what to make of it. What kind of TV deal can they get is the biggest question.

Now that the 12 team playoff will have to top 6 rated conference playoff spots I expected to see new conferences forming to get that golden ticket. Won’t be surprised at all to see bigger conferences end up splitting in two to make it easier for them if they can work out a tv deal

Yes lol. I been laughing ever since they made the 12 team playoff become reality. USC & UCLA to Big Ten pretty much eliminates their chances at the playoffs lol. Ditto to Houston, Cincy, UCiF.
