[QUOTE="JacketOff, post: 662113, member: 4572"] My personal opinion is that conferences are an outdated concept, especially in P5 football. Conferences were started by schools and programs who had similar talent and geographically close. Now there’s teams like Missouri playing in the SEC East, Pittsburgh and Miami play in the same division, BC and FSU are in the same division, and teams in the same conference go 6+ years without ever playing each other. The travel part of it isn’t a big deal when it comes to football, and teams are only making 6-8 trips a year, but it matters a whole lot in the other sports. Being forced to play conference games limits some would-be geographic rivalries, and limits some huge matchups between powerhouses. [/QUOTE]
