The 2021 American Athletic Conference football season was the 30th NCAA Division I FBS Football season of the American Athletic Conference (The American). The season was the ninth since the former Big East Conference dissolved and became the American Athletic Conference and the eighth season of the...

POLL: Best Big 12 divisions

No divisions

1/18/22 11:03am

Sorry, but a 12-14 team league with no divisions is laughable

Indy Coug

Worked out well for the ACC at 15 teams

1/18/22 11:07am

They have separate divisions for football

Indy Coug

1/18/22 11:08am

Not when they had 15 teams

1/18/22 11:08am

You mean the bizarro COVID season? You throw the anomaly out

Indy Coug

1/18/22 11:10am

In fairness, it also worked for them having teams play different # of conference games, don't think that's good longterm

Disparity will always happen when you don't play everyone. It doesn't cause a

1/18/22 11:22am

Did the NCAA change the rules, or was that just for the Covid season

Nat Gas Man

The AAC did it this year again

1/18/22 11:23am

...except the ACC definitely had divisions this year

1/18/22 11:28am

Sorry, misread. But NCAA rules are divisions for conferences with 12+ teams. AAC only has 11 since UConn left

krindorr

1/18/22 11:34am

The rules also said it had to be round robin

1/18/22 11:36am

Yea seems like the AAC straight up ignored the NCAA by-laws

Kajdin

Got a waiver, in the past decade conferences have got what they wanted

1/18/22 11:42am

Option 4 is clearly the best option for everyone and the best for the league

1/18/22 11:05am

4 makes the most sense to me. In a conference that is so spread out

Kavorka

Except, in a conference that is so spread out, it's important to keep rivals

Doogal McCougar

Option 4 the best but Iowa State won't like it

I prefer 69

And then moving Oklahoma St to the 6 when Texas/Oklahoma leave?

krindorr

1/18/22 11:16am

I like the idea of 4 3-team pods. Each season, you play all teams in your pod, then rotate two other pods each season.

durandal

1/18/22 11:11am

So taking a shot at the execution of this and expanding it

krindorr

1/18/22 11:26am

Interesting idea, though I think I'd prefer an 8-game conference schedule so we can have 4 OOC games.

durandal

1/18/22 11:29am

Conferences seem to prefer 9 conference games for more inventory, gets a bigger TV deal

krindorr

1/18/22 11:37am

Seemed to be tied to inventory for their conference network

1/18/22 11:39am

I wouldn't be too surprised to see 10 conference games with new contracts after

Nat Gas Man

1/18/22 12:36pm

I'd love a 6 conf game schedule for more interesting OOC matchups.

Mitty

Love your 9th game idea

BingoNY

1/18/22 12:02pm

Here's the other cool thing about this setup - you play everywhere pretty frequently

krindorr

1/18/22 12:30pm

Switch TCU and Ok State?

Zoobieman

1/18/22 2:25pm

Wouldn't swap Oklahoma St and TCU for a few reasons

krindorr

1/18/22 3:01pm

Love it, I would only change the rotation to every two years.

Zoobieman

Agreed - those last few weeks would generate a TON of excitement (and just as importantly) viewers

krindorr

1/18/22 3:09pm

Any of the pod proposals are SO much better than the division idea.

Mitty

1/18/22 3:42pm

Send this to Holmoe so he can bring it up in meetings

1/19/22 8:42am

If the goal is for BYU to play in conference championship games option 2 is best

Perseguir

1/18/22 11:14am

4 for me. Hope we never see 4B.

I was told there would be no math

As the poll suggests, if you have to do divisions, Opt4 is clearly and obviously
