From reading the main board, people are soured on divisions. There's always talking of coming up with optimal divisions. Personally, I like having divisions, but I can understand fans wanting to see programs from the other division more. At least with no divisions there won't be any need for a locked rival in the other division as teams would be more flexible on who they would prefer to see.

Transic, if we could scrap divisions then each school in a 16 team conference could play everyone within 2 years by having 5 permanent rivals, playing a 10 game schedule and rotating the other 10 annually and changing the home and home on the completed cycle they could literally play everyone in the conference home and away every 4 years.

Even without expanding, we can do this right now and keep 8 conference games. 3 permanent 5 rotating. Protects basically every major game
