    article on conference realignment

    I read an article about a year ago that had some guys redraft the conferences into mega conferences. I really liked the idea and wanted to give it a shot with my OD this year but I can't find the article to see what rules they used for the draft. I thought it was an article here on OS but I don't know for sure. Does anyone else remember reading this article, and can tell me where to find it? Thanks.

    I think this might be what your looking for:
    4-8 schools – 7 conference games. There are no protected rivals since everyone plays everyone else. For conferences of 4-6 schools FCS opponents will play the part of your additional conference games
    9 schools – 8 conference games. There are no protected rivals since everyone plays everyone else.
    10 schools – 9 conference games. There are no protected rivals since everyone plays everyone else.
    11 schools – 8 conference games with a rotation of other conference members.
    12 schools – 8 conference games when using protected rivals. 9 conference games when not using protected rivals. (Note: C-USA will use their 8 conference game, no protected rival format by default)
    13 schools – 8 conference games. Protected Rivals are not available in conferences with odd numbered schools.
    14 schools – 8 conference games when using protected rivals. 9 conference games when not using protected rivals.
    15 schools – 10 conference games. Depending on the rotation you will have 6-7 division games in a year with 3-4 rotating cross divisional games (based on the MAC’s 13 school schedule rotation)
    16 schools – 9 conference games. With protected rivals you will have 7 division games, 1 protected rival, and 1 rotating cross division opponent. Without protected rivals you will have 7 division games and 2 rotating cross division games.

        Thanks but that wasn't it. This was 4 guys that did it like fantasy draft style, it was not something EA put out.

            Its an article written by a staff member, but im not positive its on OS. I know exactly which one he's talking about too. Its where a guy and his friends each choose conferences and take turns drafting teams into them, and they more or less are commissioners for the conferences. Best of luck with the search.

            Edit: was able to find the article that OP was looking for
