The ACC could settle a lot of scheduling issues by not being forced to have divisions. Ultimately, divisions create fabricated yearly bouts like Texas A&M-South Carolina and Louisville-Virginia. It would have benefitted the old Big XII by allowing Oklahoma and Nebraska to play every year. All the Cali schools in the Pac 12 could go back to playing each other yearly as well.

The old school 12 team SEC (with GT and Tulane) didn’t have divisions and they were fine.

The only good thing about divisions is that it eliminates a back to back repeat game.

You mean like Fresno State and Boise State?

Ha..yep!

There has been some emails sent to the MW office that all cross division games should be played first. If there is a rematch, it would be a game that happened a while ago.
