All-Conference
This is really depressing, not so much the thought of Nebraska being left out (which I really doubt would happen anyway) but the fact that college football (specifically these several conferences) is on the verge of trading so much great history, tradition, rivalry, etc. for more money. Sixteen-team conferences make very little sense in terms of fairness and integrity of the game. Why have 16 teams in a sport where you only play eight conference games? It's nonsense. Even 12 is a few too many. Ideally you have 10-team conferences and everybody plays each other every year, and then the championship is already decided based on conference record and tiebreakers (Pac-10). That's what a conference should be. Name me any other sport where teams don't get to match up with everyone in their conference at least once every season. Now we have the possibility of one team not seeing another for 3-4 years (with 16-team conferences). It's ridiculous, and goes against not only college football's storied history but sports history in general.
