June 4Jun 4 Moderator No. When did Cody Campbell and Ted Cruz join the one-size-fits-all party? When did Saint Nick decide that everything should be 'equal'?Enforceable rules? YES! Needed, no doubt.But in a capitalistic enterprise, like B1G/SEC football and men's basketball, you punish the most successful competitors? You lower the river instead of raising the bridge?For goodness sake, go to a 24-team CFB PO, and there would be enough money to save the ACC and B12 and to help subsidize a G6 PO.But the money lost with no conference champ games? That's Beau Gus. Flex schedule and not only have 2 play at 1 at the end of the season, but also 6 at 3 and 5 at 4; this wouldn't bring in more money? This wouldn't help balance the difference in P4 regular-season strength of schedules?You decide how home vs. away games are decided. Using the 2025-26 final AP Poll, augmented by the Massey preseason poll after a conference runs out of AP Poll-ranked teams, and divided into quads, this is what a B1G vs SEC challenge could be over the first four weeks of the regular season.Week 1 - Indiana vs Ole Miss/ UW vs. MO./ Illinois vs Tennessee/ Northwestern vs Florida.Week 2 -Iowa vs Alabama/ USC vs Texas/ Minnesota vs South Carolina/ UCLA vs Mississippi State.Week 3 - Oregon vs Georgia/ Penn State vs Vanderbilt/ Wisconsin vs LSU/ Rutgers vs Kentucky.Week 4 - Ohio State vs Texas A&M/ Michigan vs Oklahoma/ Nebraska vs Auburn/ Michigan State vs Arkansas.$$$$$$$. And why not an ACC, including Notre Dame, vs B12 challenge?24-team PO deniers are caught up in saving a 'tradition' that only happened because the NCAA wasn't around to host "D1" football playoffs. And the 'tradition' ended when the NCAA lost its broadcast monopoly in the 1980s.And from what I've read, none of the 24-game CFB PO deniers have any idea how to raise the much-needed money needed to save non-revenue sports, including women's sports, without selling big game football inventory.Have a really nice day. 😁
