    I'm calling BS. No way Stanford gets in and UW doesn't.

    I've seen four of five articles with the same list of four. I don't understand it but it is what it is.

    Stanford satisfies the academis guilt for the Big10 selling out.

    It also gives Notre Dame another natural rivalry as well. With USC, Michigan, Michigan St., Stanford, Notre Dame would feel even more comfortable. I think there is some merit between Oregon, Washington, and UNC fighting for the other 2 spots. I think Oregon and Washington have the edge, because a 20 team big 10 opens up a 5 team 4 division conference. With the Big 10 west consisting of Washington, Oregon, Stanford, USC, and UCLA.

    I see the merit... but... two conference playoff games?

    If you go with 2 super conferences, each with 20 teams in 4 divisions, you have seeded conference playoffs amongst the 4 divisions. The 2 winners go to the playoffs.

    I don’t like it because the big bowl games will always be superior but it could happen.

    Good luck getting UNC out … that’s part of the final move from 20 to 24
