      Dayton
      Gonzaga
      The 85 Bears
      YA Tittle's 49ers
      Indiana
      Sacramento Kings
      Tampa Bay Rays

      Makes sense geographically and competitively
      Not sure if the Rays add a lot of value to the league. Sure, it gets us into Florida, but what does that really do for us? At least the Kigns are getting a new stadium.

        We would need an outdoor stadium for this new conference.

          Can it be built in Cedar Rapids, Illinois? That would clear up a lot of confusion for TV announcers.

            There's an existing 16K seat outdoor stadium already there.

                Yes. Yes. Yes.

                Sorry for the confustion

                It was mostly a joke about needing an outdoor stadium and moving games to Cedar Rapids to clear up confusion. Playing off of that into "Well, there is a stadium big enough to meet attendance standards already in place down there.

                It may be old and mostly decrepid, but it's essentially the same set up as Drake Stadium, and outside of track surface probably isn't that much worse off.

                    Atlantic

                          Independents Notre Dame/BYU move to Big 12 or stay independent. Army would move to the AAC.

                          The new Elite division would not play down a level to the middle tier. The National Title would be settled by a 16 team playoff on neutral sites. Bowl games would go to 5+ win teams. If the new Big 12 survives, play 11 conference and 1 nonconference schedule. No conference title game.

                                The new middle tier will consist of 10 sixteen team conferences. The scholarship limit will be 85. The FCS schools can chose to be competitive or get their teeth kicked in. Regular season would be 7 divisional and 4 inter divisional schedules. National title would be settled thru a 64 team playoff at campus sites. The national title game would be on a neutral site.
