all these mega-conferences should play nine game slates. If some whine about the four home/five away, then play 10 conf. games.

Just want to let you know Lost in Va. I 114% would like to see a nine game Conference schedule in all four power conferences. it would be excellent for College Football and a huge fan of it.

114% looking forward to My Syracuse Orange be on Friday Evening Football vs Stanford & at Pittsburgh on Thursday Evening Football Go Orange!!!
