That would keep College Football a National Sport, with all D1’s having access that are a member of a Conference. Notre Dame you can keep the National Schedule because you only have to play 7 Conference games (bring Navy) and that’s only 1 more game than the current situation. However, your Semi-Independent status is over. It’s 1 more game with way better chance of making the playoff.

This also keeps the door open for G-5’s to make it too. Although I still think they are better off eventually with their own playoff. See JMU versus ODU for what being in the playoff does versus being in one or none bowl games.
