I've been away for a while, I know. But with the Redskins seemingly in the hands of responsible adults (Allen and Shanahan, that is. Snyder, not so much), the flow of non-stop, write themselves jokes has dried up.
Fortunately, there's college football.
With the PAC-10 looking to become the PAC-16, I thought I'd help out by dividing up the uber-conferences into 4 16-team conferences with 4 divisions. Conveniently, there are 65 schools plus Notre Dame in the "Automatic Qualifier" conferences. That means, to get to 64 somebody has to go. Sorry, Baylor.
So with my god-like powers, I have divided the college football world as follows:
