Dallas Morning News build your own conference
http://interactives.dallasnews.com/2016/realignment/

You can use this to create your own dream conference. However it only lists current FBS teams. It will even compare your picks vs other submissions.

4, New Mexico
5, Oklahoma
6, Oklahoma state
7, TCU

I went with closer regional travel between six states (longest distance between schools - 8 hour drive), existing rivalries and basketball quality to compliment football strength.

Here is my new MAC. I trimmed the teams down to 10 by booting Miami, BG, Kent, Eastern Michigan, and Ball State. I added Marshall, Pitt, and WKU. Regular season would be 9 game round robin.

Where's UAB? I didn't want Auburn, so I couldn't put a rival for Alabama on the list..

Alabama, Arkansas, ECU, FSU, Houston, LSU, La Tech, Louisville, Memphis, Miami Fl, Mississippi State, Rice, South Carolina, USM, TCU, and Texas A&M..


I got a 32% popularity rating on mine.
