ND full football member scenarios...


Jul 23, 2014, 9:18 AM

Let's say for ____ and giggles that Notre Dame starts seeing the value of playing for an ACC conference championship or they (football) are forced to join a conference based on Power 5 requirements. How would you like the conference to be divided?

3 Pods
North - LOU, PITT, BC, SYR, ND
Central - NCSt, UNC, DUKE, VT, VA
South - MIA, FSU, GT, CLEM, WF
With each team playing a rotating schedule of 2 teams from every other division for a total of 8 conference games a season. The two highest conference record teams would play in the championship game. Tie breaker based on highest ranking.

4 Pods Adding a 16th team like Cincinnati or West Virginia
North - SYR, BC, PITT, CINN/WVU
East - NCSt, UNC, DUKE, WF
Central - VT, VA, LOU, ND
South - MIA, FSU, GT, CLEM
With each team playing a rotating schedule of 5 teams from the other divisions for a total of 8 conference games a season. The two highest conference record teams would play in the championship game. Tie breaker based on highest ranking.

No permanent crossover games.

Thoughts?

The schedules are too uneven in those scenarios. I don't think an odd number of teams works out for anyone. The 4 pod system can work but you would be better pairing the pods up each season. This would give you two divisions and a non rematch championship. Each year your rotate your pairing and every team would play all ACC teams once every 3 years.

If Notre Dame ever joins as a full member another team will be added, but I seriously doubt that it would be Cin. or WVU. Their academics are horrible, and with the addition of ND, there would less pressure to select a football school. If it ever happens, I'd like to see the ACC take Navy.

only way it happens if all 5 conference champion get in the playoffs and 3 at large. They would have a tough time getting in then. With only 3 spots open for them and gotta assume 2 go to the SEC so really on 2 spots.
