The following conference really isn't too shabby...

FSU, CLEM, MIAMI, VT, UNC, NCSU, UVA Yes, this is likely the magnificent 7, and you still need the media dollars... but it would be pretty darn entertaining football, lock up the mid-atlantic, and only have 7 mouths to feed. There are no bottom feeders like other conferences have (eg: no Vanderbilts, Northwestern's, two Mississippi schools, etc) If you could add Notre Dame, or even West Virginia, that would be great as it just adds more football inventory. If you really want to make it spicy, you could create a relegation system that is based on attendance, tv ratings, and record. You could almost assuredly guarantee your most valuable brands stay in the top each year since even a bad FSU team has solid attendance. TIER 1: FSU, Clemson, VT, Miami, UNC, NCSU, Notre Dame, plus let's say 2 to 4 more rotating spots from Tier 2. TIER 2: UVA, GT, Pitt, SU, BC, WF, LOU, STAN, CAL, SMU. ** Edited by jesuisvtguy at 5/16/2024, 6:02:44 PM

Agreed. I think PSU would prefer that league...
