It happened in the SEC in 2001. A 8-3 LSU, IN A REMATCH, knocked Tennnessee out of the national title game.


two teams from different divisions that happen to get a rematch is way different that guaranteeing a rematch in a title game every single year.

When you play every team in your conference there is literally no legitimate reason to have a conference title game.

agree.

This is either about (1) money, pure and simple; or (2) some sort of initial strategy to get ahead of the curve IF (and that's a big IF) the Big12 ever goes to 16 and wants to do some sort of pods/semifinals/CCG thing. That's all I can think of.
