    Mainly because we'd have Minnesota so pissed at us. Lol

    Makes more sense for college revenue sports than any other major North American sport.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    The reason I don't like this is it's OK to have good and bad teams in a conference. This would make the 13th best team in the Big 10 better than the best team in the MAC. Why does that need to happen? It's OK if a Toledo MAC team is better than a Purdue Big Ten team. The example given is in professional soccer. It's fun for discussion but not necessary or practical in college athletics.

    It would make bowl games mean something if there were promotion and relegation bowls in each division. I like the concept.

    because all the money and all the glory are at the top and we're supposed to be a meritocracy.

    "...North Dakota State narrowly misses out on a Rose Bowl bid..."


    I wonder how many fans would travel to Pasadena if that ever happened?

    I am so sick of the Bison already. Win this, win that, blah, blah, blah. I'd really, really like to know how they do it. I swear they have to be the luckiest sob's on the planet. Just sick of this bs, just fed up.
