I still think the ideal set up is allowing conference semi-finals and conferences could go to 3 divisions of 5 or 6 (15 or 18) with Divison winners and a wild card.

The only super conference left is SEC. B1G is dead because Midwest is dead. See how many empty houses in that region. People are moving south.

That's an ignorant statement. The Midwest is far from dead. The South and Southwest are growing faster, playing catch up after the advent of the air conditioner but I assure you the Midwest is not dead. There are places that have been hit hard due to industry moving overseas but we are very much alive. The Big Ten is still a media darling because Midwesterners and folks accross the nation tune in in droves to watch Big a Ten football and basketball.

Last time I checked Columbus and suburbs is one of the fastest growing cities in the country now at 13th or 14th in population size.
