Couldn't find another thread on this, so apologies if it's been discussed. What do you think? Should the Pac-10 expand to 12 teams (with a championship game?), and if so, which two?
I agree with many that if it happens, it's crucial to keep the rivalry and traveling pairs in place. That's a strike against San Diego State and Boise State at the moment, and a point in favor of BYU and Utah. BYU and ASU could renew their old WAC rivalry as well. Occasionally Colorado and Texas schools get thrown into the mix, but I really think that's going too far afield.
I'm personally not a fan of the conference championship game, and am a big fan of the round-robin setup the Pac-10 has now. I don't like how in the Big 12 and SEC, a conference champion may not have played the one or two strongest competitors in its conference, nor has the conference championship game simplified the National Championship picture, in that regard.
