Is a bracket printed somewhere?
So if you are bad (or unlucky), you only play seven games? Â That\'s a lot of revenue to lose for a lot of schools.
But you are on a decent track. Â The trick is not to expand conferences; the trick is to regroup into round robin conferences or divisions or whatever you want to call subsets; take those champions (no conference title games) and go into a 16-team playoff. Basically organize those 128 teams into 16 divisions of 8 each. Â So let\'s say you have 7 conference games + 3 non-conference games (that matter only for playoff seed or are just played for the good old competitive hell of it), and for the lucky winners another 4 games for all the marbles. Â 10 minimum; 14 maximum. Â Bowls for the also-rans.
Or leave things the way they are and bitch and moan every year. Â Much more satisfying. ;)

Yeah, I just stare at my desk, but it looks like I'm working .I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work. Peter Gibbons
