Updated Conference Realignment Guide for 2015

[MJDrocks]

Hey Rk, I used this one last year and it was perfect. Will this be the same for 2016? If not, could you post the changes that will be needed for 2016-2017? Thanks in advance.

With the Big Ten I would try to make as many of them real crossover games from this year as possible. There are only three crossover games per team, so if you set one of them correctly that's all but two games that are guaranteed to be correct for each team.

I also add Appalachian State, Charlotte, and Georgia Southern from Teambuilder. I replaced UAB (not playing this year), Idaho (dropping down to FCS next year) and UMass (bad team and an independent so conferences aren't affected). Charlotte is in Conference USA (Eastern division) and Georgia Southern and App State are in the Sun Belt.

It's really weird that Conference USA's divisions have different numbers of teams. Is Coastal Carolina joining next year to balance them out?

I think coastal carolina is making the jump to fbs in 2017.

question is, what team should be subbed out for carolina?

In my new dynasty, i'm thinking:

Appalachian st instead of idaho
georgia southern instead of umass
charlotte instead of UAB
coastal carolina instead of ? (new mexico state? texas state? north texas?..)

Also UAB is coming back next year. Charlotte isn't a good team, Coastal Carolina probably won't be initially either. So I'd say next year swapping out Idaho and UMass for App State and Georgia Southern makes the most sense. App State and GA Southern are two of the best teams in the Sunbelt. I think the objective is to have the best 117 (or however many teams) in the game for your dynasty.
