Pods aren't divisions, the concept of pods is all about getting around the current two division rule. When we move forward, after the death of the big 12, the new rules will be put in place. Hopefully that happens in April as scheduled but it can always be put off further if the proper circumstances have yet to be fulfilled.

When that happens, we will be able to have four divisions instead of just four pods. The four pods are interchangeable but they have to be combined in a way to end up with 2 divisions every year while the current rule is in place. With four divisions, we will then see a four division champion conference tournament take place. There is no way the conferences don't do this. It is an obvious move due to the money involved.
