What you are talking about is the rotating divisions model

and I am not sure enough people will embrace it. The WAC tried it (called them quads instead of pods) and the fans disliked it for a number of reasons. Don't be surprised if people view the rotating divisions in the same light as the promotion/relegation system that is commonly used in soccer.

It's reasonable speculation that if B1G expands, will be from Big XII. -- HOO86 03/02/2017 8:00PM
