    LaTech Build your own conference

    Since it's the offseason... Here's a fun link to build your own 8-16 team conference out of 128 teams:

    http://interactives.dallasnews.com/2016/realignment/index.html

    For me: Louisiana Tech, Notre Dame, Stanford, Georgia Tech, Pitt, Navy, Southern Miss, Clemson, Indiana, Kansas State, etc.

    What does yours look like?

    First we need all the D1 Techs - Us, Ga. Tech, Va. Tech, and Texas Tech. We need a Tech Championship.

    True, and if we fill it out with the southeastern FBS private schools, we'll have a decent conference: Baylor, TCU, Rice, Tulane, Vanderbilt, Duke, Wake Forest, Miami (FL), SMU, Tulsa

    I added UAB - the NEW SWC. This was what I considered a realistic (even though it would never happen).

    I had similar but left off UAB and UTSA.

    This conference is a lot sexier than the current CUSA & American lineup.

    A very fan travel friendly conference. Everyone should have pretty good attendance.

    Except that Memphis, Cincinnati and Houston are trying to get into the Big 12. Only two will make it and maybe one of those three since BYU is also lobbying hard.

    Pipe dream. You think guys like Kentucky, Vanderbilt, Indiana, etc will stand for this. This also assumes the big guys will share with the small guys. No way.

    Re: Build your own conference

    My dream is to reshuffle the deck of CUSA/AAC to regionalize the conferences. Assume if Houston, Cincy leaves, UTEP goes to MW, and add Army in the mix. Navy goes full membership. This is much sexier.


    New CUSA
    New AAC
    SMU Army
    UNT Navy
    UTSA ECU
    Rice Charlotte
    Memphis ODU
    Louisiana Tech Temple
    Tulane Uconn
    Tulsa Marshall
    Southern Miss UCF
    Western Kentucky USF
    Middle Tennessee FAU
    UAB FIU

    Looks very much like an east/west division of a super conference.
