What's this?

They are on the right track

I just think designating which conferences get automatic bids may be legally frought. Just call it 5 highest ranked conference champs plus 3 highest ranked non-champs and call it a day. No limits on at-large bids a conference can have should be acceptable to SEC. Frankly, this should please the Alliance too if they can get their crap together and compete for those at-large slots. Fair all the way around, IMHO.

They are on the right track -- obguthr 10/30/2021 12:09PM

We will soon see how strong the Alliance is. -- Hokester 10/29/2021 8:40PM

Compared w/ June proposal yes, compared to keeping @ 4, 8’s better for both -- Stech 10/29/2021 9:01PM

2005? ** -- EDGEMAN 10/29/2021 7:14PM

Sorry about that. Fixed to 2025.** -- Hokester 10/29/2021 8:41PM

8 makes it so their only adding 1 game, good! -- Stech 10/29/2021 6:28PM

Any change needs to be unanimous until current deal expires in 2025. -- Hokester 10/29/2021 8:49PM

Yep that’s why I am saying, it’s hard to believe the Power 5 get automatic -- Stech 10/29/2021 8:56PM

Agree 100%. Either auto bids for all 10 (9?) or draw a line using ranking -- BUGGZY 10/29/2021 10:41PM

Does the Alliance have enough support for the 8-team proposal? -- VTHokie2000 10/29/2021 5:48PM

It will likely end up at 12. It sounds like the ACC is the loudest wanting -- goldendomer 10/29/2021 5:58PM

Even if it does end up at 12, it could be interesting to see how much -- VTHokie2000 10/29/2021 6:32PM

I hate byes, so 8 for now...possibly expanding to 16 down the road. ** -- EDGEMAN 10/29/2021 7:16PM

I'm not a fan of them either which is why it could be interesting -- VTHokie2000 10/30/2021 09:36AM

A bye is just awful. Such an unfair -- 133966Hokie 10/29/2021 8:13PM

Agree, when we are talking football. ** -- VaTechie 10/29/2021 9:33PM

So P5, ND, and two others -- HokieAl 10/29/2021 5:35PM
