Alabama has played UT-Chattanooga 3 times since 2008

[Wamu]

Georgia, just twice in that same span. These 14 team conferences are great!

You'll stop @ nothing to try & diminish Saban's CFB coaching career. And I know you so desperately want Jimmy Jam to be in the same coaching category as Saban. The problem is he isn't anywhere close. Just give this dumbass crusade of yours up already.

 

[Across The Field]

If you played them every year, that would mean you would only play the other 6 schools in that division twice every 10 years or something like that. 14 team conferences really, really suck.

If OSU got to at least face 3/4 of Wisconsin, Nebraska, Iowa, and Minnesota every year, I'd be fine with that. They should get Wisconsin at least every other year, given how the last 10-15 years of this rivalry have gone. They've had some amazing games and Wisconsin doesn't appear to be backing down any time soon.

look old man, I know you still can't figure out that there are different posters out there but there's not a single case of me ever trying to say Harbaugh was better than Saban.

Hey kid you're more full of shit than a clogged toilet kid. Tell us all again why Jimmy Jam's a better CFB coach than Saban because he played in the NFL & had more success as a HC in the NFL.

I can't tell you something again that I've never said before.

Kill divisions. Eight game conference schedule, three permanent rivals. Two pools of rotating 5 teams. Mandatory 2 P5 games out of conference.

I don't hate the divisions, honestly. I know it's impossible to only face certain teams from the other, but I love CCG weekend.

You can still have the top two teams face for the CCG.

So who do you boot from the B1G?

 

[bamafan4evr12]

Yeah, but UT-Chattanooga > Georgia. We're scheduling harder games than what the SEC east can give us

 

[7Samurai13]

You can't play yourself, well I guess you could but I don't think we want the NCAA regulating college kids playing with themselves.

No I meant what teams do you boot from the B1G? You said two rotating pools of 5 teams, so we need to drop 4.

Rutgers, Purdue...?

3 permanent rivals = 3
Two pools of 5 = 10
Combining the two you get thirteen.

Sample
Ohio State
Permanent rivals Michigan, Penn State and Indiana
Even years MSU, Nebraska, Illinois, Minnesota, Rutgers
Odd years Wisconsin, Iowa, Northwestern, Maryland, Minnesota

So you don't solve the problem of not facing certain teams every year though.

The way things are right now, OSU could face the other 6 teams in the division, one permanent (Wisconsin), and two of the other six every year, meaning you'd face any non-permanent/division foes once every three years. In your model, you'd face five teams every other year. It's slightly better, but not a total solution.

So you want to have 16-19 game schedules? 13 conference games, 3 non conference and championship game, and possibly bowl game or two if making it to the national championship game? In my scenario you play every team at worst every other year vs the SEC once every 6 years.

I'd rather trim the B1G down to 10 teams (an actual Big Ten, for fuck's sake), play 3 OOC (two P5, I like that idea), and 9 conference every year.

Ohio State
michigan
MSU
Wisconsin
Penn State
Nebraska
Iowa
Minnesota
Maryland
Illinois

The other teams can go be G5.

No Divisions
Keep permament rivals
8 conference games
2 P5 games

It's perfect.

 

[AlaskaGuy]

14 teams + 8 game conference schedule = pseudo conference
