Teambuilder/Custom Conferences - need help with setting rivalries

[acts238shaun]

I have three teams I want to be rivals after switching conferences around; North Dakota, South Dakota and Montana fictional teams I created. Whether I load my Teambuilder teams before or after the conference edits, one team always has SMU for a rival. My teams end up in the MWC and replace Boise St. (hate their field, like the team), Utah St. and either Hawaii, San Jose or San Diego St. I don't replace TCU, I move them to the Big 12 North, swapping them with Colorado.

What can I do to get my teams to have local rivals? What setups do you use? Thanks for any help!

You have to replace teams that are rivals in real life with your created teams, then the game will recognize your teams as rivals.
