RE: Scheduling in a 16 team conference
What if, instead of having permanent rivals agreed to by both schools you also had permanent non-rivals? That is, two schools agreeing that they don't care if they ever play each other in conference? I wonder if that would make more fans happy with their schedules?
I wouldn't even object to a school buying the agreement of the other with cash. At the end of the day, the league's goals should include identifying the best team as its champion, providing fans with the best and most important games available for each school and optimizing its revenue streams. If that means an unbalanced scheduling model, why should that be dismissed for some arbitrary rotation?
