Pretty soon LSU will be in the western division of the SEC and will only play those schools and the eastern side will in essence be another conference.

Big 10 raids ACC
SEC and Big 12 split what's left of the ACC


This could be cool if they had two conferences with no conference championship game, but have a bigger playoff instead. It would basically be the NFL with more teams. BIG / SEC each with divisions consisting of 4-6 teams. Play all of your division, some cross-division games within conference, and 1-2 games form the other conference.

Divisions are gay and lead to people getting easier schedules by fluke. Split the conference/league in two. Those two play round robin within each other. Champions play. Only fair way. If this was pros it would be less an.issue since talent is very close, even with shitty teams.

To keep cohesivensess you can add some inter "division" play i guess. MLB did fine for 100 years without it though.
