Why Super Conferences Will Ruin College Football 

I think this whole super conference thing will drive viewers like myself away.

The Big 10 was ruined for me once Maryland and Rutgers joined.

Superconferences are genuinely the worst why would anyone want them

Super conferences are even worse for CFB than NIL imo

Regionalism made college football great. Every conference was its own league with its own history, character, and characteristics. It gave the college game a level of flair and a dimension of entertainment the NFL lacks. Now that geography means nothing anymore, college football is going to become generic sports slop. The novelty of big matchups will wear off quick, and fans will be groaning about how the game just isn't that interesting anymore.

Im already teetering at the edge of no longer watching. These super conferences may just do me in. 😢

Super conferences SUCK

Im a fan of Mizzou. Everyone in the SEC rips on having a Midwest team in the Southeastern Conference. I dont think theres that much room to complain anymore cause at least we border the states of the rest of the conference

Yeah I am hoping college sports fall flat on its face. It could work but it would take some major rearranging and change how they play out their seasons. The only way a 16 team conference works is splitting the league into 4 divisions so if the big 10 absorbs Washington and Oregon then you have Big 10 West. This would include Washington Oregon USC and UCLA then every 3 years you would play the 4 teams either in Big 10 North, Big 10 South or Big 10 East. And an additional 2 games would be played against teams that finished in the same place your team finished in its division the year before. Kind of how the NFL does it. So with a total of 9 conference games played it would still give you 3 non conference games you could play. Which the rules for this should change. No playing any non division 1 teams. And anyone you play out of conference you have to play that team 1 home and 1 away in back to back years. If they did expand the the conference to 16teams I believe it would result in a multi week conference championship as the winner of each division would match up against other division winners. 1vs4 2vs3 then whoever won those games would be representing the big10 and the winner would have to be assured a spot in the playoffs. Playoffs should expand to 6 teams. Basically get it to 4 power conferences SEC Big10 ACC Big12 with each conference carrying 16 teams. SEC will be there next year with the addition of Texas and Oklahoma. The Big 12 would be back to 12 so they need to find 4 new partners to join maybe Arizona, Arizona St, Colorado, Utah. If Washington and Oregon did join the big 10 maybe then send Maryland and Rutgers back to the ACC. With Notre Dame being a partial member I believe they would need to become full fledge member of the ACC. And you would probably have to demote Vanderbilt of the SEC or Rutgers to a non power conference to make it all work. This would leave California, Stanford, Oregon State, Washington St. without a conference. Around 70-71 teams wouldn’t belong to one of the power 4 conferences. So then create 4 non power conference Pac16, Conf USA, American Conf and Mid American Conf have the team with best record representing their conference in a 4team non power conference playoff and the winner wins an automatic bid into the 6 team playoff. So with each power conference winner each receiving a bid and 1 non power conference getting a bid that would leave 1 at large bid to be determined based off national ranking. There would be about 6-7 teams left without a conference. They can choose to remain an independent or demote them down to division 2 sub div. I understand it’s not even close to being this easy but it’s the only way this power conference stuff could be fun.

Bring back the big East, big 8 and SWC. Get rid of conference championship games and play every one in your league. Have a 8 team playoff that includes champions of the ACC, big ten, big east, big 8, sec, swc, and pac10 m, and one at large team

It’s gonna be like the NFL in the next decade..BIG and SEC are gonna leave the NCAA start their own league together..Have 32 teams combined..break both conferences into 4 divisions of 4 teams and 8 teams make the playoffs from each conference

College football is at its best when there is 5 strong conferences

I respect your view on this for someone like me though who loves NFL football and wants to get into college football but couldn’t I find this as a win but I understand that this is heartbreaking for the people who grew up with this

As an ASU alumni and season ticket holder regionalism gave my sad school reasons to play every week. Beating UCLA Oregon or USC meant something to us even in lost seasons. We’ve always considered them worthy opponents.

We aren’t power five by the way but ROLL NEERS

I’ll still watch but the fact the big ten will have well over 10 teams is just weird

Sports media is already the new NCAA Board of Commissioners. Fans are already being forced to pay (and watch commercials) in order to watch games that should warrant network coverage. Try watching a BCS game without being forced to pay for cable or a streaming service. It's literally discriminatory, proving that the majority of fans have become nothing more than dilettantes who will gladly bend over and take it. Who's your daddy?

Just show this video to your crush and they’ll fall in love with you

Sometimes you think that you want a thing until you get it.

just checking in for a few seconds so i don’t endure 1 trillion years of bad luck

I am a massive Pac-12 fan. Oregon to be specific. And it sucks whats happening. I dont blame Oregon and Washington for leaving it seems after it was announced USC and UCLA are gone. Along with Colorado. I forget his name, but the dude in charge of the Pac 12 was an idiot. But at the same time, a part of me is exited to see Oregon in a new conference playing teams they dont normally. And the new rivalries that are sure to come.

It’s all going to be great will super conferences. But then, teams will start thinking. They can go to a lesser conference and make all the money. And will be back to multiple conferences. With the playoffs, more teams will get a chance at a spot.

They acting tomorrow is not coming..almost like a scramble,wait it is a scramble😅..

Pac 12 network would have been good if it were actually on ever

Boone Pickens Stadium shout-out 🤠

The Pac-12 went away, because it was convenient for broadcasting. That's all that happened. The ACC needs a new or revised television contract.

I totally agree with everything you said.

You that teams fly to their away games unless its within a couple hour drive. There is no team in Division I driving 15 hours for a game.

men's college football just makes that much money

I think super confrences are going to lead to total SEC domination in all other sports. As Missouris coach pointed out while it works for teams that play one game a week in football it can be handles but basketball and baseball teams dont have the luxary of having STUDENTS traveling to the other side of the continent to play a team in New Jersey. I think the super confrences will inevitably collapse into smaller confrences and things will return mostly to the way they were

Super conference let’s goooo

Jesus loves you guys so much and all he wants is a relationship with you Jesus is coming soon we are in the end times please choose God today before it’s to late and stop following satan and the things of this world

W super conferences

As a casual, I like the idea of a super conference

FSU will dominate the SEC

USC will win the title either way
