Currently, Division I college football has 116 teams divided into 11 conferences of various sizes, as well as 4 additional independent teams, making a total of 120 teams. The problem with the current system has been discussed at length and, whether you agree or disagree with the arguments that have been made, that discussion is not the purpose of this blog.
The basis of this proposal that the 120 Division I teams should be divided equally into 10 conferences. This necessitates the adjustment of many of the current conferences, as well as the dissolution of 1 current conference (the WAC). The idea behind this move is that a uniform conference structure lends itself to a uniform way to determine a playoff system that is fair and consistent, and relies less on human estimation of teams to determine a champion.
