Conference Round Robin Schedule
Just curious... since the conferences are all sitting at a maximum of 14 schools each (excluding Notre Dame's ACC deal) for the foreseeable future, what would you all think about each conference getting to 14 teams over the next few years and then going to a full round robin football schedule? Each team would play 13 regular season games against all of their conference schools, so conference championships games are not really needed. The loss of conference championship revenue is more than made up with an extra game on the schedule for everyone. One game a season could be played at a neutral site so that each school has 6 home, 6 away, and 1 neutral game. Playoffs could still be implemented, and bowl games would be very interesting because it would be the first time we see conferences square off against each other.
Take off the realist hat for a minute and think idealistic. Assume this was a possible path... would you want it, or do the OOC games (including or excluding cupcakes) mean too much?
