Note: This isn't about conference realignment, but did have this discussion already with a general audience over on the conference realignment board a month or two ago. Not a lot of buy-in, of course, but nor did I expect much from an audience dominated by autonomous conference school fans.

Sitting here with some down time, and occurs to me to post it to my brethren here in the CUSA congregation... though, again, not expecting much buy-in necessarily, but that perhaps without the implicit bias against non-auto schools having access to an FBS championship, perhaps the conversation will, at least, sound somewhat different.




Why did I do this? Well, maybe I'm nuts, or maybe this kind of thing is a recreational puzzle of sorts to my brain in the way that a crossword puzzle might be to someone else... challenging myself to see what I can come up with, and maybe keeping me sharper than I otherwise might be for the actually important usually stressful professional puzzles that need resolution every day, week, month and/or year.
