[QUOTE="Charleston Mountie, post: 131833508, member: 1427666"] You are presenting this in a negative fashion when it is the opposite. Everyone wants to be promoted and move up and that is what is going on here. So, many "experts" will tell you they "know" the future of the college football landscape is 4 16-team conferences in a divisional playoff system and that is written no where. More than likely it will be 6 16-team conferences with 96 final teams in the mix. At some point in time, the remaining G5 conferences will merge their best 16 teams to form that 6th conference. You might note that the previous CFP set up was based on the top six conference champions, that was not a mistake. The AAC has made a major mistake here because Aresco has no idea how to run expansion. He is inviting teams and sending press releases before getting these schools to sign on the dotted line. Worse, in my opinion, he is not taking the best schools open to him even with his clumsy style. But, regardless, this "cannibalism" as you call it is a good thing. [/QUOTE]
