Ok here goes.
I took the week 15 cbs bcs ranking and conference championships and came up with this.
This proposed bracket is a 32 team bracket that takes into account bcs rankings and conference champions. From every conference (counting independents as a conference). The bracket is 4 sets of 8. As follows.
NORTH
MAC
BIG 10
INDY
SOUTH
SEC
SBC
C-USA
EAST
BIG 12
BIG EAST
ACC
WEST
PAC12
WAC
MWC
Requirements are “Big 4” get 4 spots as long as all 4 are in top 25 or played in the conference championship game (call it the UCLA rule). Other two conferences and indys get 2 bids each conference champ and highest bcs ranked non champ or played in champion ship game. If “ big 4” don’t have 4 in top 25, or 3 in top 25 1 in conference championship then the highest ranked team left out gets the extra spot. This years bracket would set up like this…
North
MAC- Northern illionois, Ohio
Big 10 – Wisconsin, Michigan State, Nebraska, Michigan
Indy- BYU, Notre Dame
South
SEC- LSU, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas
SBC- Arkansas state, Louisiana
CUSA- Southern miss, Houston
East
Big12 Oklahoma state, Kansas State, Baylor, Oklahoma
Big east- Cincinati, West Virginia
ACC – Clemson, Vtech
West
Pac12- Oregon, UCLA, Stanford, * Pen State*
WAC- La Tech, Utah State
MWC- TCU, BSU
Each section breaks down like this:
North
1. #10 Wisconsin VS 8. #64 ohio
2. #13 Michigan VS 7. #34 Northern illionois
3. #17 Michigan State VS 6. #32 Birmingham Young
4. #20 Nebraska VS #30 Notre dame
SOUTH
1. #1 LSU VS 8. #63 Louisiana
2. #2 Alabama VS 7.#35 Arkansas State
3. #6 Arkansas VS 6. #19 houston
4. #16 Georgia VS 5. #21 Southern Miss
East
1. #3 OSU VS 8. #27 Cincinitati
2. #8 KSU VS 7. #23 West Virginia
3. # 15 Clemson VS # Oklahoma
4. # 11 Virginia Tech VS #12 Baylor
West
1. #5 Oregon VS 8. #72 Utah State
2. #4 Stanford VS 7. #37 LA Tech
3. #7 Boisie State VS 6. #54 UCLA
4. # 18 TCU VS 5. *** # 22 Penn State ****
Penn State* gets in because Pac12 didn’t have 4 teams in top 25 or play in championship game that were eligible for post season play. So the highest ranked team not already included gets the at large spot.
