ACC and Big XII Alliance

ACC and Big XII Alliance
This would be a six year deal for football only with the option to continue.
Division A (South Atlantic): Miami, FSU, GT, CU, NCST, Wake
Division B (South West): TX, TX Tech, Baylor, TCU, Oklahoma, OK State
Division C (North): UVA, VT, WVU, Pitt, BC, Syracuse
Division D (Central): UNC, Duke, L-Ville, Iowa St, Kansas, K-State
8 Conference Games made up of 5 Division Games, 1 Cross Division Game vs permanent rival, 1 Cross Division game vs 1 of 3 rotating rivals, and 1 “flex game”.
The “flex game” is played 2 Saturdays after Thanksgiving. The host divisions for the “flex games” are predetermined on a rotating basis.
In the “flex game” the first place team in Division A plays the first place team in Division B. Second vs. Second, so on and so forth. Last vs Last. The same set-up will be used in the other 2 divisions. (This would rotate, where Division A plays Division C in later years.)
The winners of the two “first place flex games” will meet the following week in the Championship Game. The winner of the Championship game will have a guaranteed spot in the NCAA play-off.
All TV money generated from games played in ACC stadiums will go to the ACC. All TV money generated from games played in Big 12 stadiums will go to the Big 12.
Permanent Rivals (set-up to maximize TV money and in some cases regional rivalries):
CU – VA Tech
FSU - Texas
Miami - Oklahoma
UNC - NCST
Wake – Duke
K-State - OK State
Pitt – L-Ville
UVA - GT
Iowa St - TCU
BC - Baylor
WVU - TX Tech
Kansas – Syracuse
Three Bi-Annual Rotating Rivals :
CU –UNC, UVA, WVU
VA Tech –GT, FSU, NCST
FSU –VT, Oklahoma, WVU
Texas –GT, K-State, Miami
Miami –BC, Pitt, Texas
Oklahoma –K-State, Kansas, FSU
UNC –UVA, CU, GT
NCST –UVA, VA Tech, Duke
Wake –Syracuse, BC, TCU
Duke –NCST, Syracuse, TX Tech
K-State - Oklahoma, Baylor, Texas
OK State –Kansas, Iowa St, L-Ville
Pitt –Miami, TCU, TX Tech
L-Ville –OK State, Syracuse, WVU
UVA –UNC, CU, NCST
GT –UNC, VA Tech, TX
Iowa St –OK State, TX Tech, Baylor
TCU –BC, Wake, Pitt
BC –Miami, Wake, TCU
Baylor –K-State, Kansas, Iowa St
WVU –FSU, CU, L-Ville
TX Tech –Iowa St, Duke, Pitt
Kansas –OK State, Oklahoma, Baylor
Syracuse –Wake , Duke, L-Ville

I'm not a fan of "superconferences"...
Nov 4, 2013, 10:19 PM

in fact, I'm not real big on 12-team conferences. The main reason for that is that there is too much intra-conference strength of schedule. A team could make the conference championship game simply because it had an easier schedule than another team. And that goes for all sports. I liked it much better when everybody played everybody home and away in basketball.

Screw all this regional and national garbage, let's have the ACC merge with NATO, the Big XII can annex the Vatican, the SEC and MI6 can join up, we can be in the same division as Japan, and New Zealand will be our new non-divisional cross-over opponent. With any luck, we'll be kicking Siberia Tech's a$$ in the conference title game by 2015.
When is the madness going to stop? Regional rivalries develop for a reason. Gee whiz, I hope this realignment bullcrap slows down for a few decades now.

Personally I wouldn't want to pair with the Big XII anyways.. ACC is getting stronger and is the #3 conference this year
