Conference Realignment Rumors

Talks of UConn to the Big XII, but for football only, and then adding Gonzaga who doesn't have a football program, to balance out the distributions.

 
So eventually, all of the P5 teams will be gathered into three(ish) super-conferences that all have a nationwide footprint. Then these super-conferences will partner together to form their own championship division of college football (officially freezing out the G5 teams, who have honestly always been frozen out of any championship discussion anyway).

Then, since these super-conferences are so large and it is logistically difficult to shuttle student athletes from coast to coast every week, most of the scheduling will be reorganized into geographic regions/divisions. When this happens, all of the P5 teams will effectively be back into same the geographic conferences that we all started with.

Is that where this is all headed?

Seems likely.

And, like you said, they'll be so big that there will be some sort of groupings.

So instead of six conferences there will be three with two groupings each.  Which is kind of the same as six, if my math is right.

 
S o  many team like WTF  ?!??

I bet we see some ACC schools join before anymore PAC schools.  Miami is a sure bet for one of the teams along with NC.
