[Fantasy] SEC-ACC-B12 Scheduling Alliance
Format:
6 division games (in the Big 12: only 4, +2 rotating through the other division)
2 AD-selected games (ie. FSU-UF, Aub-UGA, Tex-OU in off years)
1 TV-selected games, chosen just the year prior by TV partners
9 total games within the alliance, perhaps all counted toward CCG eligibility

Teams can allow their AD-selected games to become TV-selected (if they are lazy... or financially induced). For most teams that 9th game would likely follow a staggered H-H-A-A pattern so as to allow all possible pairings between the 38 teams; ADs can use their OOC and AD-selected games to compensate as needed. Perhaps Notre Dame will be worked in with a 6 game agreement having 1 home "TV" selection and 1 away every year.

Pros:
1. Fans (ie. the people that tune in to TV) can bring back rivalry games lost to the last realignment wave (Pitt-WVU, Texas-A&M, Mizzou-Kansas (or any other B8 team).
2. ADs have the power to pick 2 games from anywhere within the alliance, including intraconference (more Wake-UNC)
3. The Big 12 will finally have scheduling room for some good OOC games
4. Better games. Instead of playing Kansas State next year, a resurgent Baylor may be picked to play Auburn. Oklahoma could lose to Clemson or Georgia next year rather than Texas Tech.
5. More interconference games means a better take on the teams' true strength
6. many SEC and ACC teams are already playing a 9th game against one another
7. We can get that Saban-Dabo game we missed this year
8. [???]

Cons:
1. The 4 ACC and SEC divisions will no longer "rotate through" each other; ADs will have to purposefully schedule cross-division games (or hope their TV partners do so).
2. [???]
