I don't have a team, but here's an ultimate Eastern Athletic Conference:

Code:
POD 1:  Clemson         Florida State   Georgia Tech    Maryland        
POD 2:  Michigan        Ohio State      Michigan State  Penn State      
POD 3:  NC State        Miami-FL        Virginia Tech   West Virginia  
POD 4:  South Carolina  Florida         Georgia         Pittsburgh

Maybe trade UMD for Louisville. It's happened before, after all.

But that's unbalanced at 11. Maybe add FSU?

In a world where we have the ACC and the AAC, the Big 10 and Big12, the MAC and MAAC ... I reckon that would obviously be the Mountain-Midwest Conference, MMWC.

Alabama would want Tennessee as its protected crossover, and Auburn would want Georgia. Also, 2 of your protected crossovers are in-division (OSU/Ole Miss and FSU/SC).

Still working on a name for the conference. 07-coffee3

In that note, also:

Big 10 robs half the ACC and 1/3 of Big 12
SEC robs half the ACC and 1/3 of the Big 12
PAC 12 robs 1/3 of the Big 12

Power 5 breaks completely away from the Group of 5

1/3 of the current Big 12 is 3 1/3 schools!

Apple Pie
Cherry Pie
Sweet Potato Pie

ENTREE DIVISION
Deep Dish Pizza Pie
Chicken Pot Pie
Shepherds Pie

I think the entree pies will break off sooner rather than later

DINNER PIES
Pizza Division

Deep-Dish Pizza
Thin-Crust Pizza
Pan Pizza
New Haven Pizza
Pot Division
Chicken Pot Pie
Turkey Pot Pie
Shepherds Pie
Quiche Division
Quiche Lorraine
Quiche Florentine
Ham and Cheese Quiche
Bacon, Gruyere and Caramelized Onion Quiche

Lots of resistance to adding the quiche block but the Food Network needed the inventory. Though another schism nearly happened when Pan Pizza put pineapple in its starting lineup.

DESSERT PIES
Fruit Division

Apple
Cherry
Strawberry-Rhubarb
Lemon Meringue
Key Lime
Peach
Non-Fruit Division
Pumpkin
Sweet Potato
Buttermilk
Chocolate Chess
Boston Cream
Coconut Cream

Pecan is independent but has long-term rivalries with Pumpkin, Apple and Sweet Potato. French Apple keeps hoping to get in but Apple always blocks them so unless something changes, they're stuck with Blueberry and Shoofly in Conference PIE, waiting for a callup
