[QUOTE="Richard7125, post: 882605, member: 5703"] The next level of money won’t come from conference expansion, it will come from expanded playoffs. The talk of expanded playoffs started before Texas and Oklahoma announced plans to move to the SEC. As soon as the Texas/Oklahoma announcement was made, the expanded playoffs got shut down. With USC and UCLA going to the Big10, power has been consolidated (and somewhat balanced) among the two conferences. The SEC and Big10 will decide on how many teams and the structure of the playoffs. I’m guessing it will be 12 teams (because that’s what the SEC was pushing before) and those teams will probably be chosen very similarly to how the 4 teams are decided today (small group of experts based loosely on polls). I doubt you will see any automatic qualifiers. The committee will say they hold conference championships very important, until they don’t want to. There will be an ACC team or two in some years. There will probably be 1 Cincinnati type of team in most years. You will probably see 1 to 2 teams from Pac12 and Big12. You will most likely see ND if they are ranked high enough. Most years you will see 3 to 5 SEC teams and 2 to 4 Big10 teams. [/QUOTE]
