[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 980333, member: 1776"] This has largely already happened - it is just easier to see. For example, the top 5 schools in the country in AA revenue are Ohio St, Texas, AL, Mich, and UGA. All 5 are among the 8 that can make the CFP this year and all 5 would make it under the new 12 team model next year. The vast majority of the spots in the CFP will come from the top 20 AA Revenue schools year in and year out. There will be 1 or 2 every year from outside the Top 20. That is where CFB already is. Most teams moving conferences won't matter to their success on the field. That success is largely reserved to the richest of the schools and there is nothing on the horizon that will change that. Some fans believe that expanding the playoffs is going to expand interest but I suspect they are incorrect. It will largely be the same schools every year vying for playoff spots. The schools that make the most revenue aren't doing that because they are in the SEC or B1G. They are doing that because they have the largest followings that support them. They would largely make that revenue regardless of which conference they are in. At the end of the day the TV money is relatively small potatoes. GT got $40M or so last year in media revenue and its total AA Revenue was $106M. Ohio St got about $60M from media revenue and total AA revenue of $251MM. That is why there are literally only a handful of schools that can compete for a NC year in and year out. [/QUOTE]
