Looks like the ACC is leading the charge, along with the Big 12, to "deregulate" college football championship games.
To have a championship game now, you must have at least 12 teams and two divisions, with the division winner meeting for the title. This was one of the drivers for conferences to expand to 12, the lucrative conference championship game.
The ACC is proposing a rule change to get rid of divisions and have conference pick who they want in the title game.
I guess the ACC is tired of title games like Florida State v. Duke and Florida State v. Ga Tech.
The Big 12, with 10 teams, may get to have a title game after all, and only share the cash with 10 teams as opposed to 14.
