Military Bowl idea
Have the military bowl rotate among the 3 academies (Air Force, Army, Navy) on a yearly basis. For years AF has it, host the B12 or Pac 10. For years Army has it, host the B10 or ACC. Navy, ACC. Make backup selections possible. Offer these bowls to academies first with larger split of tv money from those games. Do anything to entice all academies to be a part of the AAC and in doing so, entice bowl partners and p5 leagues to partner with us.

Sounds great except for the fact that the P5 don't want bowl matchups with teams NOT in the P5 anymore. As those existing contracts expire look for them to renegotiate for two P5 teams or they go somewhere else. Example...Li'l Ceasars now going to be renamed and a B1G/ ACC matchup.
